Humans are not product or a herd of cattle. Business types think in terms of profit- of utility and how to make USE of people--maybe we don't like being used? Maybe we just want a good and peaceful life...Prime example of a business and the Presidency is Dick Cheney---He was NOT a military man- Yet he waged war from the boardroom..which was a disaster...He also looked at Iraq as a hostile oil merger at the expense of Iraqis and American soldiers who lost life and limb to fulfill a business plan- We need leaders who have respect for people- super business types have no respect for human commodity.

The war against successful people continue. Rather than listing any real reason not to support Romney, they have to bash a large percentage of the public who own businesses.

One could say that politicans make bad businessmen, but then that would deny how people like Clinton, Gore etc, have become fabulously wealthy after politics.

FAIL.

Well, CEOs and COOs, take advice from others, even though they are higher in the company, they still hire smart people around them to make an informed decision.

Would you rather vote for someone who is willing to listen to others, or not?
