Thread Name: Fit to Lead?
Subject: RE: Fit to Lead?
You mean like be an ideal weight, not ever have smoked, not drink to excess or drive under the influence, eat right, work out, be less than 50 years old and have no personal OR family history of heart problems, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, breast cancer or anything else that has a heredetary component and might prove fatal. Have him/her pass a physical examination and doctor's review?
Yeah, that could happen. Health and vigor count for SO much more than, you know -- all that political stuff.
The problem is, much of that is probably the case now. How many potential leaders - political and otherwise - are rejected because they are not sufficently photogenic, I wonder?
