“I’ve worked very hard, I’ve established myself as a pretty significant figure in the world of sports and I’m glad about that,” Smith said on his podcast this week.

“But never in my wildest dreams did I believe that would translate into me being polled as a presidential candidate for the United States of America… this is a shock."

“I simply looked at myself as doing my civic duty and speaking on these issues," he said about his appearances on cable television over the last several months.

"And then low and behold, some poll comes out, and the poll has me receiving two percent for the presidency of the United States of America.”

"I must confess to you, that if my money is right, my pockets are tight, my quality of life is sustained, and you came to me and you said to me as the American people, that you wanted me to be your nominee for the presidency of the United States of America, I have to confess to you, it is something I would consider," Smith said.
