Rightlinks Blog – Because I didn't fight communism in Vietnam so that I could surrender to communism in America…

There are actually two  messages here.  The first is  very
interesting, but the second is  absolutely astounding – and explains a  lot.

A recent “Investor’s Business Daily” article provided  very

Check this last set of  statistics!!

The percentage of each past president’s cabinet who had  worked
in the private business sector  prior to their appointment to the  cabinet.
You know what the private  business sector is; a real-life business, not  a
government job.  Here are the  percentages.

T. Roosevelt………………..  38%

Taft…………………………..  40%

Wilson ………………………  52%

Harding………………………  49%

Coolidge…………………….  48%

Hoover……………………….  42%

F. Roosevelt…………………  50%

Truman………………………  50%

Eisenhower……………. ….  57%

Kennedy…………………….  30%

Johnson……………………..  47%

Nixon…………………………  53%

Ford…………………………..  42%

Carter………………………..  32%

Reagan……………………….  56%

GH Bush……………………..  51%

Clinton ……………………..  39%

GW Bush……………………  55%

Obama………………………..  8%

This helps to explain the incompetence of this  administration:
only 8% of them have  ever worked in private  business!

That’s right!  Only eight percent—the least, by far, of  the
last 19 presidents!  And these  people are trying to tell our  big
corporations how to run their  business?

How can the president of a major nation and society, the  one with the most successful economic  system in world history, stand and  talk about business when he’s never  worked for one?  Or about jobs when he  has never really had one?  And when  it’s the same for 92% of his senior  staff and closest advisers?   They’ve spent most of their time in  academia, government and/or non-profit  jobs or as “community organizers.”
They should have been in an  employment  line.
