He should do what Governor Huckabee did and start a healthy lving/lifestyle campaign (because the mayor looks like he could use a few laps himself).
I don't think the tax has anything to do with healthier eating; it's to raise additional needed revenue for Detroit. The resultant healthy eating would be an unintended, but I'd imagine, welcomed benefit.

Hey, hey, back up off Bro. Mayor Kilpatrick. The "ice-cold" resurgence of Detroit's comeback is due in no small measure to the leadership of Bro. Kwame and the good bruhs of Gamma Lambda chapter.
