Tim Tebow & Politics? Jets Player Can Be Next Big Politician [DETAILS]
Will we be seeing Tim Tebow in a suit and tie, walking among politicians on Capital Hill instead of in his New York Jets uniform on the football field?
Well, the quarterback has not dismissed the idea completely.
In a interview with Vogue, which latest issue will hit newsstands on Sept. 25, Tebow said that he has big plans for himself in the future.
The magazine reported that Tebow has been spotted at A-list celebrity parties, had been rumored to hire stylists and he reportedly signed with a Hollywood talent agency. However, it is all part of his plan to raise awareness for the Tim Tebow Foundation, a charity that helps children and orphanages. The player said the following to Vogue:
"You can get looked at in a certain light, or people think, 'this is the type of person, he wouldn't do this. There are a lot of goals and ambitions that I have in life, things I want to accomplish. Who knows? I mean - it could be politics one day. I want to have a life that can help people."
ABC News reported that Vogue Senior Editor, Taylor Antrim, told "Good Morning America," "[Tim] has got Bill Clinton charisma, he completely connects with whomever he's speaking to."
In another interview, Tebow also admitted the possibilty of entering the world of politics. When ESPN asked him if he would consider running for political office after his career in football ended, largely because of his popularity, Tebow responded with the following sentiment:
"I haven't ruled it out. Whatever avenue I feel like I can make a difference in, I'd love to do. I haven't ruled out anything like that. It won't be anytime soon in my future, but it'll be something I'll at least look at and consider one day."
