    Well, as long as Applewhite isn't running against somebody from Oklahoma, he'd be a shoo-in for Governer...

    Funny you should mention him...
    Big George was on CNN Sunday and the question of politics came up. Foreman was as cool as could be and responded that most of his life he has aspired to be liked...and politics wasn't in keeping with that goal! (I'm paraphrasing, but that's really close).
