Porter's been the CEO of OMGPOP since 2009, and was a SVP at Richard Branson's Virgin Group before that.

"SVP" of "Virgin USA", which was an absolutely minuscule offshoot.

He has been a CEO of a tiny company for two years, prior to that acting essentially as a glorified salesperson. That is absolutely green.

He has 20 years of executive leadership. Irrespective of what you think of the actual job activities or of a particular title, how can you possible color that "green"?

I've never been CEO of anything and even I know when I'm being an asshole.

And president of Teach for America in 1994? That was a pretty well-known organization even at the time, at least in DC.
