You should repost that over here for the usual “let it burn” crowd.

I am not sure they want to listen. As someone who followed the Ford turnaround, discussing it with relatives in blue-states, they acted like could shive a git. When the funny part of it is, if their kids grow up to take Business-301, they prolly have to read about it, and maybe do a serious paper on it...

Again I am not sure they would want to hear the machinations of what it takes to fix something, or watch a Maestro in progress whether it is Orr or Mulally. These guys are not just good, they are the Wayne Gretzy of their arena's they come along once in a blue moon and you can't help but root for them to turn something around.

For those that are disinterested, I can't fix stupid, they can go turn on Dancing with the Vaguely Familiar.

Reading Reagan's nomination acceptance speech given in Detroit is an inspiration for Americans to do something to make America better.

I will not stand by and watch this great country destroy itself under mediocre leadership that drifts from one crisis to the next, eroding our national will and purpose. We have come together here because the American people deserve better from those to whom they entrust our nation's highest offices, and we stand united in our resolve to do something about it.
