Yes, the front-runners have very little actual business experience, 
unless you count funny business.  I guess that's why my gut reaction is 
to vote for Perot, a guy with an admirable business resume.  However, 
business acumen by itself is not all that's required to be a successful 
CEO.  If we could somehow replace Perot's whiney East Texas accent 
and barnyard histrionics with Clinton's calm demeanor and smooth 
delivery, (and throw in a little of Bob Dole's avuncular war-veteran 
solidity) we'd have the ideal candidate.

And if a frog had wings....
