I wonder if President Obama is the first President to never hold a private sector job.

Kennedy never worked in the private sector. He went from Harvard to military to politics.

Well I wouldn't consider someone in the military on the same level as someone working at the DMV or for the City Water. And did Obama even hold a government job?

If it is more palatable the closest Clinton got to the private sector was a year as a professor at The University of Arkansas. |

I figured that. But when I mention how most government workers are useless pieces of garbage who couldn't hack it in the private sector collecting garbage, people go "what about the troops". Though being a Military brat I have seen how fucked up the military organization can be, but the people there (even the office warriors) are no where near as pathetic as your local city weed eater operator.
Now Carter did own a farm didn't he along with some military time?

Don't know about the military service but for someone in his generation it would be rare if he didn't have some. He presented himself as a simple peanut farmer but if I remember correctly he was one of the primary, if not the only, suppliers for one of the major peanut butter brands. |

Now I hear this a lot from the older people who have lived in Georgia all their life, but they tell me that President Carter wasn't really a peanut farmer. He was known as the peanut farmer (which is the only wiki reference I see about peanut farming) but I think was more along the lines of buying peanuts from farmers and processing them. But Carter did work in the private sector and apparently did quite well.
