FOOOOOOOOOOD in the 08 rpes campaign

so one of my fave topics- food came up in the paper
the nyt most have ran out of things to write about so they wrote about the candidate's eating habbits- and anaylized how food can be seen as great judgment of character- if a candidate eats too much and becomes fat their undisciplines- if they refuse food they reject the person serving the food.

they cant eat because their always answering questions.

this ofoucrse simply shows the beuty pagent side of politics- a pagent where the judges are always ALWAYS watching everything EVERYTHING

it makes sense if one of the candidates started eating one of the ethnic food i eat i would emediataly have a soft spot for him or her.

food is so much part of our culture it spills into everything even presidential elections.

but is it fair to assume that a candidate with food allergies is disadvantaged or unqualified?

food alregies have nothing to do with how well a person can run a country but appereantly they have a lot to do with a persons ability to win that position.

why is it that many of the qualities required to win elections have nothing to do with the actual qualities needed for a presidency?
