Wow. Incredible memoir. Thanks for posting.
A definite MUST read.
““Tell those kids in your class not to give up on POTUS,” he wrote, using the popular acronym for president of the United States. “Tell them life for a president is not easy, yet I have never heard #43 whine about the loneliest job on earth, never seen him pose gazing out into the future to depict how tough his job is.”
hmmmmmmm...
A wonderful read. The kind you hope will never end. Thank you.
ping-a-ling for the weekend
For later reading.
This article was amazing. I read it in bits and pieces all day, but in it’s entirety it is excellent. I gained more respect for W having read it. One thing is for sure: he’s smart, well read, and a damn good statesman, with real awareness of history and the American presidency.
Obama couldn’t light a candle to him.

the contrast to what we have in the WH now is as stark as it gets
During the 2004 campaign I was asked by someone on FR to moderate a Bush forum in Yahoo groups. I had to choose a new screen name and, off the top of my head, I chose W4freedom. How’s that for prescience?
I loved this article, but I cannot fathom how someone who can write so admiringly about W could vote against him. Boggles my mind!
Thanks for the ping, though I’m a tad late picking up my pings.
It is quite the contrast, for sure!!
I did..I wasn’t..Wonderful read..God Bless Dubya
