7. Lee is a good man. I remember watching him during an interview
on cspan. I think it was Q&A, and the host was Brian. He was discussing his book, but Brian also asked him a lot of other questions. One of them was whether he had been asked to run for President years ago just after he had turned Chrysler around. He said yes, and he did consider it. He had dinner with a high ranking Senator and good friend of his, and he asked him what he thought of the idea. The Senator said "NO!!!!!!! You couldn't stand working in the Washington atmosphere. You are used to making decisions, and implementing them. It doesn't work that way there, and you would either quit, or have a heart attack and die in office!"
