I just could not picture a presidential candidate getting away with smoking these days. What do you think?

Haha. Reminded me of an old joke:
It is time to elect the world leader, and your vote counts. Here's the
facts about the three leading candidates.
--Candidate A - Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with
astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8
to 10 martinis a day.
--Candidate B - He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon,
used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
--Candidate C - He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't
smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any extra-marital affairs.
Which of these candidates would be your choice?

I don't want to get into a typical smoking argument that happens on this forum, but your mother's cough would be near impossible to link to second hand smoke.Originally posted by: erub

well-deserved man. My mom will always have a cough due to second-hand smoke. Besides, I'm certain that poorer people smoke a lot more than richer people, and as we all know sucessful politicians are always rich. Sorta like diet.

I'm sure everyone knows the answer, but what the hell
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR)
Candidate B is Winston Churchill
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler

Pipe or cigars - maybe. Cigarettes seem to be un-PC these days.
