>>" Has Obama ever had a job with responsibility for a P&L statement? Have any of the three? "<<

Well let's see...

Bush 43...maybe when he ran the Texas Rangers after he got public funds for their stadium

Clinton...don't think so

Bush 41...maybe, didn't he get involved with some oil companies early on that later had financial problems?

Reagan...don't think so

Carter...probably, he had a peanut farm

Ford...don't think so

Nixon...don't think so

Johnson...don't think so

Kennedy...don't think so

Eisenhower...don't think so but wasn't he a University Pres for a short while?

Truman...probably, didn't he have some kind of hardware or clothing business in Kansas very early on?

Roosevelt...don't think so

Yup, clearly the country needs a P&L expert...

Maybe we can get Jimmy Cayne of BSC to run. He doesn't have anything really pressing to do right now and he is a P&L expert. Gee, I wonder what Perot is doing these days? He was a P&L expert. Why migosh, he would get right under the "hood" and fix "something".
