cspan #2 - Iacocca B&N book talk

Watching Lee Iacocca on CSPAN 2 and he is making sense, although I did not realize that he read his speech text so much. It does make you notice when he goes off text though. He might not be as inspirational himself anymore, but his 9 C's thing is quite interesting and as he talks, everything he is saying is antithetical to what the little cowboy in the "white" house is. Still, I am always suspicious of ex-car guys, especially when they're still shilling.

Another interesting nugget from his Q&A after. "Out of 24 ranked in math and science scores, the US came in 18th!"

That's why we need immigrants, especially from Korea (ranked 1st on the above referenced list). Ha.

The "C" I am most interested in now in relation to 43 is "character". He does not meet any of the "C's" that Iacocca has listed but George Jr's character is most lacking of all, immediately followed by common sense. Go the this link to see the list.
