Re: Noch einer: Time´s Person of the Year 1928 und 1999
Seit 1927 ermittelt das US Magazin Time die Person of the Year. Es waren fast immer Politiker, fast nie Unternehmer. Selbst Intel Chef Andy Grove wurde es erst 1997. Zwei weitere Sonderfälle waren 1928 und 1999
1928: Walter P. Chrysler
Last July, in a matter of fact sort of way, Walter P. Chrysler offered the public a new automobile called the Plymouth. On the thirtieth day of that month, Dodge Bros, stockholders approved a $160,000,000 deal which turned over their business to the Chrysler Corp. The Dodge company included Graham Bros., big truck concern.
Early in August, Mr. Chrysler brought out another new car, called the De Soto. Many a man was a little confused for the moment as to whether the De Soto and the Plymouth were new makes by Chrysler or new Chrysler models. But the Chrysler models--"65,""75" and"Imperial 80"--continued to be advertised distinct from De Soto and Plymouth.
...
From motor man with one product, he had become one of the chief U.S. industrialists. Undeniably, he had been the outstanding businessman of the year.

und 1999 Jeffrey P. Bezos (Amazon.com)
Welcome, Jeff Bezos, to TIME's Person of the Year club. As befits a new-era entrepreneur, at 35 you are the fourth youngest individual ever, preceded by 25-year-old Charles Lindbergh in 1927; Queen Elizabeth II, who made the list in 1952 at age 26; and Martin Luther King Jr., who was 34 when he was selected in 1963. A pioneer, royalty and a revolutionary--noble company for the man who is, unquestionably, king of cybercommerce.

>"Gentlemen, you have come sixty days too late. The depression is over."
>Herbert Hoover, President of the United States of America, responding to a delegation requesting a public works program (stimulus) to help speed US economic recovery, June 1930
>Tja, leicht daneben. Und noch einer:
>"While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have now passed through the worst, and with continued unity of effort we shall rapidly recover. There has been no significant bank or industrial failure. That danger too is safely behind us."
>Herbert Hoover, President of the United States of America, May 1, 1930
>Auch leicht daneben. Was wird Greenspan Morgen sagen?"I am convinced we have now passed through the worst"?
