Yeah, but is he a Doofus?!! The hawaiin shirts, the goatee, the extra pounds. I can see it.... but in some respects he is a really savvy marketer, ain't he? Of course, when you have a good product ... study your culture and you package it right, well then you too can expect to be invited to speak to the United Nations.
ergh. In some respects I suppose, but I have seen a lot of salesmen who are very 'successful' who are still doofuses. If you listen to Chris Rosebrough's analysis on Issues Etc. he talks about this method used in the business world and as I recall it's losing credibility fast because of the machiavellian tactics involved. Apparently Rick's behind the wave.
