Has anyone seen this documentary about George H. W. Bush? It has been running on HBO lately, and I got around to watching it last night. It provides a great look into his political career and really focuses on his life on his compound in Kennebunkport. It shows him as a graceful, wise leader. It doesn't have a political agenda, it basically is him sitting in a chair telling his life story. I really enjoyed it, and its neat to see and hear the behind the scenes information from a President's perspective. His line about running the RNC while Nixon was president is pretty funny.

I was flipping through the channels and watched about 30 minutes of it and got hooked, but I had to leave. I plan on watching the rest at some point in the near future.

I watched the last half of it, and very much enjoyed it. He's pretty frank with both his successes and failures.

Got to shake 41's hand at the Superbowl last time it was in NOLA when he and Staubach did the coin toss.

Yeah i finished it last night. Really good. I did get the impression that he is not a big fan of Ross Perot.
