Anyone consider effect of EW's slight size on perception of her being a strong POTUS?

Her message is super strong

But she looks small and frail.

Remember how people used to claim that the tallest candidates won?

Didn't W have to have a stool to stand on to compete with Gore?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
