Interesting Statistics

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 interesting
statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health
Organization.

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 -- 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 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."



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