Compare your height and weight to presidential candidates of the last 112 years.

I am William Jennings Bryan.



I'm not about to post a picture of myself, but if you put a beard on him and sent him to lift weights for a while, it isn't ridiculously far off. That's my hairline.

Umm...  The closest for me is James Madison, but he weighed a little less than I do and he's a little shorter than I am.

The more I think about this, the more I think WJB was either lying or someone's estimating his weight from his high school yearbook. I'm not fat at all, and while muscle makes up some of the difference, it doesn't explain all of it...

I'm lighter than any of the prezes on this chart by a good 20-30 pounds.

I think I look the most like Jimmy Carter, but I'm slightly shorter, and heavier. I don't remember my weight, it's probably around 170. I'm close to Nixon and JFK, I'd say.

Somewhere between Teddy and Clinton.  Teddy if I'm fit, Billy if I'm not.

     I don't look that much like any president, though Kennedy or Carter would be my closest match.

My body double is ironically the original Happy Warrior Al Smith.  We are seriously the same height and weight.  Maybe add a couple pounds to him but its about right.
