Good point - no argument there. > become Governor of Texas and then President of the US. So while you > personally detest him, he has been very successful. I don't detest him, I just don't think he's a good President. Which, BTW, doesn't necessarily require intelligence, but I do think it requires more quantitative decisions than faith-based. This is why I think Mr. Bush makes a poor President. For example, look at Jeff Skilling the former CEO of Enron. If HBS is hard to get into, McKinsey is even harder. He was a star there. Unfortunately he was also a faith based guy and truly believed that his energy trading business was a completely new "paradigm" that could be rolled out to everything. He believed in this so much that he ignored the numbers caving in around him. As far as success, History will judge that. Becoming President requires good marketing not personal excellence. So far 50% of this country think Mr. Bush has been a failure. If Mr. Kerry is elected I think in 4 years that number will jump to about 85%. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=36 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:133078 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
