The Patriot Post® · A Message Applicable to Anemic Republicans
Cal Thomas: “Jack Ma is the founder of the Chinese Internet retailer Alibaba. According to The New York Times, Alibaba is ‘the world’s largest Internet commerce company, with 231 million active buyers using its site, 11.3 billion annual orders and $296 billion in annual merchandise sales.’ Its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange established its value at $168 billion, 2-½ times the size of eBay. … Incredibly, he has become a success in communist China, an unlikely place to find such principles practiced. … To those who waste energy complaining, Jack Ma offers this advice: ‘If you complain or whine once in a while, it is not a big deal. However, if it becomes habitual, it will be similar to drinking: the more you drink, the stronger the thirst. On the path to success, you will notice that the successful ones are not whiners, nor do they complain often.’ … He says you can’t unify everyone’s thoughts, but you can unify everyone through a common goal. While his message applies to anyone, anemic Republicans could use it most. They should stop whining about President Obama and start focusing on principles with a track record of success.”
