Businessmen As US Presidents Just. Doesn't. Work.

[MarcATL]

The last and only two Presidents we've had that were actual and self-proclaimed businessmen were Herbert Hoover and George Walker Bush. And how did they turn out?

Both their Presidency's were COLOSSAL FAILURES.

We have to face it, the modern-day Republican meme that says that "we need a businessman to run the country" just. doesn't. work. Running a country is NOTHING like running a business.

When will the hard RWers get this through their thick skulls? I don't know.

im not saying it works but the model of businessman isnt fully described in this half ass thread. Can Romney be a businessman and a good leader, yes, because success in business is helped by being a good leader. Businesses use many many talents and sometimes u might be weak in one skill or talent but be successful with another talent or skill/ the problem wit the OP as a poster is his description of the business man is NOT fully described OR where he is attempting to point the finger at which skill hes trying to demean Romney for.

its also not a hand out but did that stop corzine for thinking he could run NJ like one? no it didnt and yes it didnt help NJ, only because Corzine was not as good as he thought he was.

That much is true, liberals, certainly Obama, today are far more conservative than actual self-proclaimed, modern-day Conservatives.

These self-proclaimers are simply hardcore, rightwing reactionaries. Nothing more, nothing less.

Spot on!
Self described businessman Presidents Hoover and Bush 43 turned out to be total failures -- both drove our country into it's worst economic collapses in history however-------however self described failed businessman, Harry Truman is on many-many lists as a great President.

Government is not a business.

But it should be ran like one...

Romney, by all accounts, is the only man since Ike that is truly qualified for the job.


Thats a fact Jack.
