you help your dad carry the burdens. how did your dad help you carry the burdens? >> first of all i served as a great example. you never know what it's like to be president until you get in there but i had a sense of what it was like particular on a family. it's not a burden to serve something you love and i love america. it's not a burden. you maybe don't sleep as well as you should at times but it's not a burden. secondly if there were was a worry it was about barb and jenna. i put in the book that when dad decided to run for president one of the things he never worried about is my being able to handle the job. it's a liberating feeling and for me and are the burdens were how the experience would affect our girls. they were not very happy about the fact that i was president. you have ruined our lives. you can't win. you are not as cool as you think you are. [laughter] i heard it all. but you know i had seen family grow stronger and i knew that would be the case. in terms of dealing with the pressures, he helped a lot by checking in on occasion but i also know whe

if you said you're a hero to your dad or my dad or a lot of people in the service they would have said i'm just doing my duty. the sense of duty was powerful. and it was an extraordinary experience for an 18-year-old kid. it had to have been. and i think it speaks to a lot of the decisions he made in his life. such as foregoing wall street to go to texas. >> risk taker. >> and my brothers and sister and i benefitted from his example. >> interesting anecdotes in the book. you were a pain in your dad's neck a little bit. >> yeah. >> you stole toy soldiers out of a store. how did your father handle that? >> well, he handled it. there's a line you don't cross. but he handled it with grace. yeah, he saw me playing with some soldiers. i was five or six years old. and he said where did you get those? and of course i balked. and i didn't have a good answer. i wasn't well scripted. and next thing i know i'm marching into the store, apologizing to the store owner and returning these little pathetic little toy soldiers and that was it. there was no yelling, screaming, haranguing. it was -- >> les

for your dad.now he called you about bin laden, does he ever call you -- >> never. >> reach out to your dad? >> i don't know. i know this, president obama is very unpopular in texas. he comes to texas and dad's there at the foot of the stairs to meet him in his wheelchair. and -- >> you write about that. >> typical of 41. >> you wouldn't do it? >> well, i don't know. that's a good question. haven't yet so far. thank you for bringing that up, by the way. >> you wouldn't -- i'm asking -- i'm asking if you would. >> i know, but you didn't have to mention it. >> when you think back and throughout the history, throughout your presidency and obviously the iraqis conflict, the battle against the post-9/11 world. a very different world. >> that's important for people to know. >> and you think about what your dad went through, the fall of the berlin wall. i think he went through, what? four soviet leaders at the time. >> correct. >> which is amazing. >> and all the history that was made. >> through four as

you helped your dad carry the burdens. how did your dad help you carry the burden?ed as a great example. in other words -- you never know what it's like to be president till you get in there. but i had a sense of what it was like, particularly on our family. the biggest burden, it's not a burden to serve something you love. and i love america. that's not a burden. it's just maybe you don't sleep as well as you should at times. but it's not a burden. secondly, if there was a worry, it was about barb and jenna. i put in the book that when dad decided to run for president, one of the things he never had to worry about was mother being able to handle the job. and laura gave me the same gift. it's a liberating feeling, just so you know. and for me, the burdens were how the experience would affect our girls. and they were not very happy about the fact that i was going to run for president. they're like, you've ruined our life! you can't win! you are not as cool as you think you are. i heard it all. i had seen family grow stronger. and i knew that would be the case. so tha
