I find it a bit odd that Dr Oz is so whacky as a potential politician. When I was teaching at adult education colleges I had different classes at different times and places and I happened to be able to watch his daytime show for about a year. I usually found him and the topics covered fairly sensible and factually accurate, as far as I could tell. He was able to relate to the mostly female studio audience and guests on the show without negative biases - again, as far as I could see.

I was very surprised to learn of his political aspirations.

Life is full of surprises, in this day and age.
