The most potential next US president is healthy according to yesterday's New York Times article quoting the Senator's primary care physician.
With those lab result values, I say, he's even healthier than his doctor.

UPDATE on 04 June 2008 - Barack Obama makes history.
Senator Barack Obama, 46, was in “excellent health” at the time of his last examination more than a year ago and has no known medical problems that would affect his ability to serve as president, according to a letter by his physician released on Thursday.
Dr. Scheiner wrote that he last examined Mr. Obama on Jan. 15, 2007. That was one day before Mr. Obama created a presidential exploratory committee.
At the time, Dr. Scheiner said that Mr. Obama had no complaints, that his blood pressure was 90 over 60 and that his pulse was 60 beats a minute. Blood tests showed all his lipid measurements were within normal limits. Cholesterol was 173, HDL 68, LDL 96 and trigylcerides 44. ~ [New York Times, 30 May 2008]
With those lab result values, I say, he's even healthier than his doctor.

Excellent! Obama's most assuredly going to be the next president. I think the perceived health of the person running is important to the American public. In fact, I think it was an importnat factor in Gore's downfall in 2000. He had gained significant weight while in the Whitehouse and while campaigning. Meanwhile, Bush was running 3 miles/day at a pace of 7min/mile. Put Obama next to an aging McCain who can't put his arms above his head, he certainly won't lose.
wow!!
he is such a healthy man..
^^
All the health in the world is not gonna make him president! Especially when you have an unhealthy mind and soul!
