5’ 6” is the presidential cut off
« on: February 18, 2020, 06:32:55 PM »
I had my choice for President narrowed down to Mike Bloomberg or President Trump.

After weighing everything it comes down to stature. I can’t vote for a president who is shorter than 5’ 6”. I just can’t.

I know they’re both Republicans so I had to think of a way to differentiate and it came down to height. Can you imagine Mike in China, looking up at everyone?  Nope.

How do you measure yourself to other golfers?

By height.

I'm picturing the debate stage.  There's only so big of a box until it's obvious.

It would really be obvious if they are introduced and called out to their podiums. You would see him walk out and then climb his little ladder to get on his box.

Maybe the can handle the height difference by using different camera angles and changes of perspective to make it appear Bloomberg is the same height as everyone else?

Angled stage?  Just don't have any glasses of water visible to the camera.  :lmao:

The camera would have to be 2 feet tall and aimed upwards at a 45° angle.

I was thinking they place him closer to the camera and everyone else further away.
