@dbea6228 She is FAT, and she is going to be giving the country advice about how to live their lives? Physician, heal thyself.

If you all will look closely, the woman looks pregnant, not fat.
Besides, it doesn't matter the size of the person, but can they do a good job.

Good God, you people are so brainwashed. All some of us are saying is, "Get in reality." People do what they're gonna do. Governmental control is only about tyranny - not the best benefit of the people. This is just all rhetoric and 'show'. Who gives a crap. We need our economy back. Heck, we need OUR COUNTRY BACK.

I am sorry, I live in Europe so I do not know how big of an issue it is in the US. However I do not see the weight of a secretary can affect the way children eat. Do American children watch the news from the White House as soon as they get back home from school? I am sorry, this just seems an escape from the problem which most prob is ur diet.. As for doctors smoking that's a given at least in Europe, still it hasnt stoped them from operating ppl and saving them too

What a wonderful lady, seems she's about to reap the blessings of the self-less giving she has done over the years. Well done Obama, great choice x

Please, please, President Obama, I dont think you realize that we cannot afford to buy our own healthcare. We are losing our health insurance in record numbers!! Dont let us down, please pressure congress to pass a universal healthcare for everyone living in America!! My premiums went up, while services went down!! We need special attention directed at caring for the needs of blacks, and hispanics who have not been able to afford to go to a doctor in years!!!!
