Gov. Chris Christie thinks his weight is a non-issue when it comes to how well he can do his job.

“There are people who say you couldn’t be president because you’re so heavy,” Barbara Walters said to Gov. Christie in a recent interview. “I mean, that’s ridiculous,” Christie told Walters. “I don’t know what the basis for that is.”
