Bob Johnson: Fill & Download for Free

We have a rule in cross-examination.Before you ask any questions, you get the person to accept that, at a previous time, they said something else that actually hurts their case.You do not, under any circumstances, walk up to someone and say something like “So, you killed that guy right?”. When they say “no”, you’re screwed, even if they told twenty other people in town they killed that guy.So in a case like that, you start by asking questions like:“Do you know Bob Johnson? Did you tell Bob Johnson you killed that guy? Really, because here’s a sworn statement from Bob Johnson saying you killed that guy.”And if I had the opportunity to be on the committee, I would have had my staff look at every article and decision she has ever written and ask her if she wrote those words.Because she has written lots of articles and decisions that directly contradict her claim that she will uphold precedents. For example, I believe she’s written articles essentially saying that the 14th amendment was only supposed to apply to ex-slaves and, since there aren’t any more ex-slaves, the 14th amendment is a “dead letter”.Why Trump's expected Supreme Court nominee believes all Civil Rights legislation is 'illegitimate'Here’s the kicker - that includes legislation protecting the rights of women, which is what her predecessor Ruth Bader Ginsburg spent most of her career fighting for.

Comedian and former Tonight Show host Jay Leno has a perfect example of this.Back in the 70’s and before he was famous, Leno was hired to play the role of Sales VP, Bob Johnson, for a company called Freshen.Freshen made a moist toilet paper that was an alternative to dry toilet paper. It’s actually a very good idea; if you got poop on your hand, would you just wipe it dry with paper, or would you prefer to use a moist cloth that could help wash your hand? Food for thought.Back to our story.Leno is paid to give a funny monologue to a room full of grocery and drug store buyers and then segue to the owner of the company.He flops. The buyers aren’t ready for this type of product. The presentation ends and the room is deadly silent.The founder of Freshen runs up the the front of the room and explains that, “No, this isn’t actually Bob Johnson, but Jay Leno, a local comedian!” and starts trying to sell the room on who wants to be the first to place an order.The buyers are grossed out and start to leave. Seeing this, he offers a free case of Freshen with the purchase of a case.More buyers leave.The poor business owner is now desperate; he offers a free case to just try it in their stores, but by now, the room is almost empty as people are disgusted by the idea of Freshen.After everyone leaves, Leno asks to be paid; the Freshen owner, now in tears with his head in his hands and knowing he has a warehouse full of Freshen that no one wants, tells him, “Are you kidding? “GET OUT OF HERE COMEDIAN!! YOU BOMBED!!”But Leno persists and is finally told to take a case of Freshen as his payment. He does.“Hey, a deal’s a deal,” he says afterwards.Fast forward 40 years: what is the hottest new product on the toiletry shelves of grocery and drug stores?Sometimes, timing is everything.

The first African American billionaire was Bob Johnson, Founder of Black Entertainment Television. He was the only black billionaire from 2001 to 2003 until Oprah Winfrey made her first billion. Reginald Lewis built close to a billion dollar company but was not necessarily a billionaire.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_billionaireshttp://www.blackentrepreneurprofile.com/profile-full/article/reginald-lewis/
