Presidential Performance Review
Recently, I thought it would be helpful to our readers to see a performance review of our last three presidents. What got me thinking about this was the fact that I has posted some scathing reports of Bill Clinton's behavior in the 1980's and 90's. Plus, I was already painfully familiar with George W. Bush and Barack Obama performance levels. So I thought, this could be fun as we do a manager's review of these three guys.
Please remember that manager's reviews are often times highly subjective and not scientific. Afterall, the individual managers have their own biases and faults so their reviews tend to reflect that.
