Donald Trump

Every US presidential election, there are some Americans that are snared into the idea that a business person would make a great president.The latest example of this logic is of course Donald Trump.

The reasoning goes that since Mr. Trump can run a casino then he can also run the United States.A good president must know a great many things, and business is certainly one of them, but it is not the only thing.Does Mr. Trump have any knowledge of diplomacy? education? healthcare? defense and war? I recall that during the first presidential campaign for George W. Bush, one of the campaign selling points was that Mr. Bush was a successful business man. We all know how that turned out.
