    He could do that but he has enough money that he doesn't need to learn how to take bribes.

    Track record of what? Taking donations and serving the interests of those checks?

    Yea, we need more of that.

    Actually what I don't do is put a career politician in as President of the most powerful nation on earth who has zero experience running a business of any kind.

    You say that as if chapter 11 is bad.

    There are often good sound reasons for businesses to file for chapter 11.

    It's way more common than anyone thinks. It is not at all like a personal bankruptcy.

    More of a good business strategy in the right circumstances. Didn't GM and Ford file bankruptcy a few years ago and now they are selling as many cars as ever.

    Ford didn't and did not take a bailout. Chevy and Chrysler did.

    That was the whole scam of "Obama saved the auto industry and killed Bin Laden". They screwed over bond holders and gave a large part to the unions instead of going through normal Chapter 11 bankruptcy which works, just like the airlines. Never let a good crisis go to waste. It was payback for the election support from big labor.
