Funny motivational speaker thinks politics can be funny. Particularly a Presidential race with a bunch of candidates posing as comedians.

Funny motivational speaker doesn’t mean fun all the time. Particularly when you’re battling the elements and a fat foot. Some of you know I’ve had my foot in a cast, and then a boot for a while. I’m getting better, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to run a 10 flat hundred or…
Funny motivational speaker will probably fail at New Year’s resolutions like everybody else. I’ve always thought resolutions were something that went in one year and out the other.
