What's with all the Chris Christie fat jokes?

I'm not a big fan of chris christie but...
what does his weight have to do with his ability to lead?

shouldn't we be judging him based on policies?
 
how about the GOP mantra of "personal responsibility"? If he can't even be responsible for the amount of food he puts in his mouth, how can he be responsible for the whole country?

Maybe he could be our first fat president? I never thought of getting the fat vote. That could be a damn good strategy. Once a candidate secured the fat vote, he'd win by a landslide...

Because there is a tremendous amount of pressure being President of the United States. He can obviously have health issues and could be ripe for a heart attack or stroke. As President, he has to be mindful of his health for the good of the country. I personally think he is a bully and a has a smart mouth which is not presidential.

Well he is fat but he is smart Obama is skinny and want to destroy the American economy.
Obama is not eating the fat of the land. Christie is!
But Christie is a leader while Obama just blames others for his failures.

well, many people did vote for our current president based on color. don't be to quick to assume everyone plays fair. I'm African American by the way, so lay off haters.

Totally agree.

But all some people can do is point fingers, blame others, lay insults, personal attacks, harsh rhetoric, and partake in demagoguery.

If Christie gets in the race, then let us see him in a debate with the other candidates, and see how he compares. If we are liberal enough to elect a black President, then let us be liberal enough to look past physical appearances and elect another fat President. William Howard Taft and Grover Cleveland need company.
