To: Reagan Man
He was one of a few presidents of the 20th century who had a significant professional life before entering politics. The others would include General Dwight Eisenhower and Professor Woodrow Wilson. Incorrect. Herbert Hoover was an engineer in the mining industry before he entered politics. In fact, he had such an outstanding reputation for his managerial skills that he was appointed by Woodrow Wilson to lead the U.S. relief efforts in Europe after World War I.

You don't believe Wilson, Eisenhower and Reagan had "significant professional lives" before politics? What in the statement was incorrect?
