FACT SHEET:
FRANK LYNCH FOR PRESIDENT
Born Dec. 31, 1941, South Side of Chicago,
Illinois. Begins every day with 30
minutes on the elliptical machine.
The only Presidential Candidate Who Actually Worked
In A Factory at any time in their life, and then created a public company by
himself. None of the others know how to get their hands dirty, or how to make
something, or how to create jobs. All Romney did was sit around with a bunch of
other rich kids and invest other peoples' money in other peoples' businesses.
Frank used his own money.
Raised in second generation immigrant
blue collar neighborhood on South Side of Chicago in between
Michelle Robinson Obama's home and the Rev. Wright's Trinity United
Church. His parents met as coworkers in a non-union factory during
the Great Depression. Attended Catholic schools: St. Theresa of the Little Flower
elementary school; did first year of High School with Chicago Mayor
Richard M. Daley at the De LaSalle Institute (which produced almost
all of Chicago's Mayors since WWII): transferred to associate with a
better class of people to Leo High School. National Merit Finalist. Still angry
that the Irish Christian Brothers told him to study Latin because
'gentlemen read Latin" and not to study Spanish.
First member of extended family to
complete high school, to complete college, and also first to
complete a post graduate degree.
Oh yes, almost forgot. First in
family to run for President, as opposed to unacceptable inherited
political kingdoms like the Governors, Senators and Representatives.
B.S. Physiological & Experimental
Psychology, Purdue University, 1965. At age 19,researcher in
National Science Foundation Research Fellowship on the effects of
early experience upon adult adrenal corticosteroid response to
stress. Led to advanced weapons systems consulting. National

Political Science & Primate Social Behavior (the last two are
strongly related) University of California at Berkeley, 1961 & 1963.
M.B.A. Finance & Marketing.
Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management, 1969.
In the 1969
Business Week magazine's annual review of the MBA job market, Frank was the
cover headline story that the job market was so hot that a company sent its
jet to fly Frank in for an interview. Frank was the only new MBA graduate in
1969 that got a ride on a corporate jet, and was the sole passenger.
First Car:
wrecked 1950 Chevy, cost $25. Rebuilt the wreck, drove it to
Canada.
First job:
at age 13, cleaning washrooms and windows, Herb's Grill, 8300 So.
Ashland Ave., Chicago, Illinois. Promoted to chopping onions,
flipping burgers, and washing Herb's car.
Best job:
operating complex turret lathe in industrial machinery factory
between high school and college. It was complicated, and gave the
satisfaction of seeing a completed and useful physical product that
had a genuine purpose. And it paid better than the average college
graduate earned.
Worst Job:
Republican precinct captain on Chicago's Gold Coast during the riots
of the 1968 Democratic Convention. First time a cop laid a baton on
me and threatened to beat me.
Most Futuristic Job:
Predicting armed conflicts 20 years into the future to design
weapons systems required 20 years into the future. Quit consulting
when Department of Defense instead decided to buy weapons for
conflicts 20 years into the past. Study accurately predicted the
mess we would find ourselves in with Iran and Iraq today. Too bad
the DoD did not re-read the study before idiot Jimmy Carter pulled
all support from Iran, which had been our strongest ally, and turned
Iran over to the Shiite fanatics, and before both of the American
catastrophic invasions of Iraq.
Highest Personal
Development Job: Senior
corporate finance officer on Wall Street traveling the country
dealing with top corporate executives and directors, evaluating
their five year plans in virtually every line of business, and
following through over the years to see what worked and what didn't.
Designed and managed public and private stock and bond offerings,
mergers & acquisitions, restructurings and leveraged buyouts (LBO's).
Toughest Job:
Sole founder and President of a restaurant franchise chain,
attempting to maintain quality of operations while meeting the
payroll for hundreds of employees, locate sites, build restaurants,
taking the company public, selling franchise, dealing with
investment community & regulators, and fight against both a smart
regional competitor, but much worse, against a giant multinational
competitor which had unlimited resources to pay up for locations.
Quirkiest Job:
Creating
FranksHeroes so all Americans can get their voices heard by our
elected leaders. The idea that politicians will listen to what
people want, instead of only listening to big money contributors and
cash-rich special interest groups is extremely quirky in today's
corrupted and phony political world.
Most Rewarding Job:
Taking care of his elderly parents in his home for 20 years. Both
were legally blind. His father, Frank W. Lynch died at home in Frank's arms
at age 95 year 8 months on Dec. 7, 2005. Believes that his father's death on Pearl
Harbor Day might be a sign regarding Asian threats today. His mother
Pearl Lynch, also died at home in Frank's arms also at age 95 years
8 months on Feb. 21, 2011.
No Passport:
Frank has not been outside the USA since
his classified overseas intelligence activities during the peak of
the Cold War. Says he will never again go outside the USA unless it
is in Air Force One. Believes everyone should vacation inside the
USA, and if you are able to adopt, adopt an American child.
Frank hopes to create a re-invention
of education to uplift every American to the true equality that can
only be achieved when every person is capable of supporting themself
in a vibrant capitalistic civilization.
