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

interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International

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.
Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in
the main stream media.
