? Kimmerly was part of the crooked triad. His name is all over the trail of wreckage JZD left in the 1970's. I would not want anything more to do with him than Nesseth. Even his front door is too close. Does politics necessarily include cheating and lying to people? Note also that JZD was not involved in a single profitable venture after leaving GM. Everything single company he touched lost money. JZD amassed his fortune by raiding the coffers of other successful entrepreneurs. Had he been dependent upon P&L, the man would have died a pauper.
