Which of the following would disqualify a candidate from receiving your vote for President?

I went with 95, ####### job, sex change, and obese. I assume we're talking 400 pounds obese. Then again, I think Ted Kennedy is obese, and I would vote for someone his size (not him, though).

I totally missed the fundy, but you can add that to my list.

I have to say, I am curious too. An obese person is obese, how does gender play a role? I would not want some 300# porker in office male or female.

I think you should have had "obese man" and "obese woman."

There's a difference.

That being?

That being, women are judged more harshly for a few extra pounds by the time they reach middle age. It's more or less the same for young people, IMO. But the prejudices are not equal.

But why would a "300 pound porker" upset you if they ended up in office? (By the way, I know you are really into working out and everything, but please try to remember there are people who are 300 pounds posting here every day. Try to control your ego.)

What have you guys got against cross dressers? I wouldn't vote for a religious fundamentalist on principal. None of the other categories are really based on beliefs.

So, Muslims, atheists and environmentalists have no beliefs?

this is just appalling that some VJ members can be so narrow minded, i am really shocked

This isn't about ego. It is about setting an example for an already obese nation that gets fatter by the day. The President of this country should be setting a healthy standard. I want my President able to walk up those steps of Air Force One without taking two breaks to catch his/her breath. I want to see my President running around D.C. and not running out of the nearest doughnut shop. 300# is hardly a few pounds over weight. That is grossly obese. Unless, of course, you are around 8' and male. If you can't care for your own health and welfare, how can you expect to care for that of the nation?

So many choices....

[Ban Hammer 13,344]

As of this moment, the only consensus candidate (0 votes) is a white male with a ####### job

...I want my President able to walk up those steps of Air Force One ....

Sorry Jeffrey for the clip - I had to wonder what people were thinking when they voted a physically handicapped person would disqualify them from getting their vote. Thought despite this clip being out of context, perhaps it is about the picture of health & strength.

I am interested to know.

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

The real outrage is 3 votes against a female with a ####### job! What a bunch of haters!

I'll refine for you. A fundamentalist, by definition is extreme so their decisions will be radically skewed by that fundamentalism. A muslim or an environmentalist may or may not have extreme views. If they did not, it wouldn't have much material effect on whether they would make a good president. If they were, then sure, that would require further evaluation.
