However, the poster he represents is a bit more complicated. As I've stated before: originally a physics major and math minor. Then, a business major and economics minor (required at UNA).
Post graduate work at Syracuse U, Army Staff Management College, Air University, and most of the logistics courses in the Army.
I'm reminded of the conversation the MSNBC reporter Contessa Brewer had with Mo Brooks:
Brewer: “You’re simplifying the issues that were on the plate of the nation at that point. I mean we were looking at going – averting a Depression at that point, everyone the Fed chairman . . .
Brooks: “Well I disagree that we were going into a Depression, but go ahead.”
Brewer: “Do you have a degree in economics?”
Brooks: “Yes Ma’am I do, highest honors.”
Our Miss Brewer looked like a shocked guppy.
Contessa Brewer -- beautiful name and beautiful woman. Unfortunately, her elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor.
Jimi's doesn't even leave the ground floor.
I saw that, too. Unfortunately, I didn't see the aftermath; the clip stopped at that point.
She apparently isn't a lawyer, either. Every lawyer worth his fee knows you don't ask a witness a question that you don't already know the answer to. And know when to quit asking:
Lawyer: Did you see John bite Sam's ear off?
Witness: No.
Lawyer: Then how do you know he bit it off?
Witness: I saw him spit it out of his mouth.
