Ever wonder how a candidate’s stature effects his chance of getting into office?
To help evaluate that question, The New York Times put together a fantastic chart of the presidential candidate pairings to see if there are any trends, and found some interesting results.
According to the chart, taller (17 to 8) and heavier (18 to 8) candidates generally do better than their shorter and lighter counterparts.
It’s not an exact science, but it does show some interesting insight into what we see in a leader.
