No facts? He served two terms as governor of Texas and two terms as President. Running for office can be a long drawn out stressful process. What kind of person would put himself under that kind of pressure, an easy going laid-back person? Is that your theory?

There are plenty of fit people around here who do 60-mile cycle excursions. Are they all taking a pleasurable sport and turning it into stress?
I don't know all of the "fit people" you're talking about so how would I know if they're turning it into stress? You took my post about one person (Bush) and took it to mean EVERYONE? I don't know everyone. But I do know a lot about Bush. He has been in the public eye for many many years. There was even a movie about his life.

I am astounded by the suppositions in your post, which appear to not be based on true facts about President Bush.
I believe I was using deductive reasoning. I took what I knew about him: 1) He has coronary artery disease. And 2) he is highly competitive/hard charging/aggressive. You don't get to be president by being laid back.

Those are 2 very important facts. Do you deny them?

Once you have those two facts, stress and food is a very good educated guess.

You criticize but have nothing to offer in it's place.
