Very intelligent, educated, charismatic and well-liked, attractive by most standards, a natural leader...not to mention he has the type presence that when he walks in a room, he basically owns it immediately.
So if he never went in the public sector and pursued a career in the corporate world, I have no doubt he'd be a leader of a very large multi-nat'l company (or various ones thru his career), getting rich off stock and stock options, severance packages, being on a 1/2 dozen boards, and so on.
Pure speculation of course...as a teen he considered being a doctor, but one never knows.
yeah, My uncle who is a staunch conservative from SC was once invited to see him speak at a dinner (might have been while he was still president; or it was shortly after).
He told me after the dinner, where he spoke very briefly to him and shook his hand, "I'm about as Republican as it gets, but damn; that guy is one charismatic sonofabitch. I almost wanted to give him some money!"
