Everyone's been talking for the past couple of months about how the US has had five left-handed presidents in the last seven. No, I don't think left handers are more siutable material to be in high office; it's just coincidence.
Take a look at this:
At school, five of us did Latin A level and we had two Latin teachers. All seven of us were left handed.
My niece works in a team of seven and six of them are left handed. Admittedly, one or two are in creative roles, but the rest aren't.
When a friend was at law school, all eight of them in the constitutional law tutorial were left handed - and so were their tutors! Needless to say. the tutorial desks all had tables facing the wrong way...
Lawyers and Latin students are no more likely to be left handed than US presidents. Sometimes it just happens that way.
