  1. Maybe mandating that all K-12 schools, public and private, offer physical education and recreation at least 3 hours a week is a place to start.

  2. LT – great football player. Aside from his problems with drug abuse, there’s also this: “in 2010 when he was arrested for the statutory rape of a 16-year-old girl. After he pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct and patronizing a prostitute, Taylor was registered as a low-risk sex offender.” Great pick DJT

  3. I remember this in Hr High back in the 70’s. We had PE 4 or 5 days a week, but once a year we would sudden;y do the “”Presidential Fitness Test”. I would do sit ups until I couldn’t move and would be sore for the next three days. I remember out of the blue being told we had to run a mile and then throwing up half way through.

    Even then the whole thing was a joke.
