When it comes to serving other people, NFL star turned baseball player Tim Tebow does not like to close down any doors. The Christian athlete loves to help other people every chance he gets, and even though the political arena might not be the best place to be in right now, it's something he is seriously considering.

"It's something I could imagine," he told The New Yorker. "I want to do whatever I feel [I] can have the greatest impact and touch the most people. If one day that is the political realm, then that's something I'd consider. I wouldn't be doing it out of a passion for politics but out of a passion for people."

When asked about the current presidential campaign, Tebow cannot help but shake his head. He thinks the political tactics of both Republican nominee Donald Trump and his opponent Democratic bet Hillary Clinton have been "disappointing" because they focused on "negativity."

Once he decides to enter the political arena, Tebow would make sure he'd do it the Christian way. "I'd do it if I could share a message of faith, hope and love, share a message of 'We are all created equal' — literally, everyone is created equal. God created us equal, but in our own unique way, in love, by love, and for love, to do amazing things," he said.

Tebow believes if people just understand this basic concept and principle, then their treatment of other people would change for the better. "Every single person, no matter where they are from, what their ethnicity, what their socioeconomic status is, God created them for a purpose," he stressed.

Meanwhile, Republican consultant Ari Fleischer thinks Tebow would be a shoo-in for either the Senate race or a governor's race. However, Fleischer suggested that Tebow prioritise sports for the meantime.

"He should get everything sports-related out of his system before he thinks about running," he said. "Politics will still be there."
