It definitely doesn't, but at the same time experiencing hardships doesn't automatically make you have empathy. Look at our vice president. Look at the billionaire that got him elected.
Empathy is what this letter is all about. I want someone who knows how it feels. And, instead of rising to the top to enjoy the view or talk about bootstraps, they become the arm that reaches back and pulls others up with them.
