Bye bye, Bush

Obama enters the White House and I expected to have more to say. You should be reading my thoughts on future prospects for America or the world but I didn't do the research in time. Neither did I put together a planned piece on George W. Bush. There's so much to say but I want to have a structure and not just say "Bush was bad, Obama brings hope".

As George leaves The White House I can't help but think, "How did he get there in the first place?" I'm vaguely familiar with the story and followed the news closely enough to have known him when he was just a potential candidate and known simply as George Bush Junior. The focus on the news has been Obama's race but to me he's always been a credible alternative to the Bush Administration. If I have a quiet day tomorrow I'll write something a bit more substantial and something that I can (vainly) imagine being published somewhere.
