UT President Bill Powers presented land commissioner George P. Bush the inaugural Latino Leadership Award on Monday evening.
The president’s office worked in conjunction with the Center of Mexican American Studies and the Department of Mexican American and Latina/o Studies to select Bush as the first awardee, said Dr. Nicole Guidotti-Hernández, associate director of the Center for Mexican American Studies.
“We went through a series of 15 nominees, and we evaluated them for leadership, public service and areas like that,” Guidotti-Hernández said. “With him as the first Latino land commissioner, I think in its [179-year] history of the office, we thought it was an appropriate acknowledgement of what it means to be a trailblazer in Latino leadership today.”

George P. Bush/Chelsea Clinton 2024!
Chelsea can teach even that Bush about foundation manipulation.
Another Bush loser trying to groom himself for national office....
What a freakin joke. He comes from one of the wealthiest, most well-connected families in America. Any office in Texas was his for the asking. Is that what it means to be a "Latino trailblazer"???? Using connections to get into office?
George III and George IV can co-king the moribund GOP.
Chill This is no different than Barack Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
That hit my funny bone...LOL
Is there a Caucasian leadership award?
It will be interesting to see what donations to U of Texas were made by Jeb Bush and his cronies to get the award for Pee. Follow the money...
The entire Bush clan is bought and paid for by the mexican oilgarchs, and heartily endorsed by just about every central/south american despot regime.
Pancho Bush and the Hildahag are the front line appointees of the Bilderberg group and in order to sell them to the American public the DC establishment’s two political parties deceive the American people through orchestrated political theatrics in thinking they have a say in who goes to the WH. The fact is, we don’t.
The question answers itself.
