inside the life of our former president, George Bush, and his family. My visit to the museum allowed me to learn about a temporarily exhibit which was “Driven to Drive: Defining our Identity.” This exhibit consisted of a room full of current and past automobiles, and their history of how they were created and about their manufactures.

Iraq War: Have the benefits of the war outweighed the costs?

Putin’s stride depicts he’s strong, both literally and figuratively. As he walks, keeping his head high, and his shoulders moving back and forth carrying his swagger, making him more appealing. Former American President, George Bush is the opposite, with almost no movement above his shoulders, giving off…
with the presidential campaigns of Bill Clinton, George Bush and Ross Perot. The 2 questions we have to ask is how a sitting president with an 80% approval rating in 1990 lost the election 2 years later and what caused the right to left political shift. Republican’s seemed slightly lost after the Persian Gulf War and were leaning to a more conservation right. With no major foreign affairs to focus on all eyes were on the economy. George bush then uttered those 6 famous words “read my lips, no…
