Derek Jeter
When Jeter first arrived to the New York Yankees in 1996, it was the start of something special. After a drought of success (at least by Yankee standards), Jeter helped make the Yankees great again.
Captaining baseball’s most successful franchise is something he can put near the top of his resume; captaining the country could be next in line for one the game’s all-time greats. When the game was on the line, Jeter was a lock to deliver.
Jeter was also one of the best postseason performers in history. He didn’t know pressure. Rather, he put pressure on his opponents. Whether it be trade deals, foreign policy, or social issues, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better negotiator because Mr. Jeter always seems to come through.
It’s only natural that the man they call ‘Mr. November’ one day runs for president. It’s a little ironic that the election comes every November also, isn’t it?
