the book makes clear the huge amount of respect and admiration george w. bush has for his father led a truly remarkable life. george herbert walker bush was born in massachusetts on june 12, 1924, and exactly 18 years later signed up for the u.s. navy. by that time he was already one year into his relationship with barbara pierce who would later become his wife. as the youngest pilot in the navy, he flew 58 combat missions during world war ii and was awarded the distinguished flying across after being shot down by the japanese and plucked from the ocean by a u.s. submarine. george and barbara went on to have six children including the future president, he followed in the footsteps of his own father by running for office, becoming a member of congress before going onto becoming ambassador at the united nations and later becoming president himself george bush was at the forefront of the end of the cold war, the fall of the soviet union and countless major events that shaped world history. at the george bush museum and library i got an opportunity to do something

george bush chose to oppose reagan on this deal the first time george bush stood out pubically against ronald reagan on a major foreign policy question. the book goes into detail about how it pushed bush to opposition to reagan and how the pressures from the bush campaign and other politicians closed the space on this deal and forced the u.s. to give noriega an ultimatum, 24 hour ultimatum to sign the deal or everything would be off of the table. we can't go to all of the detail now. but the bottom line is that these negotiations were cut off before anyone knew if he would go through with it or not. noriega was begging him to sign the documents. he wants some time to talk it over with his military officers and get the backing domestically. one doesn't know if he would have been able to do that. one doesn't know if he would be able to pull the rug out from under him in the end, we'll never know because we pulled the rug out from under the negotiations and it was more domestic policy consideration the interest for the bush for president campaign than it was for the national consideration

and the second run -- the runner up was george bush. but nancy reagan didn't like george bush. nancy reagan did not like the fact that he had coined the term voodoo economics. bush had gotten out of talks to walter cronkite. cronkite interviews him and cronkite's got pieces of the story. he says are you a candidate for the vice presidency? and ford goes on for two minutes without saying the word, "no." reagan is looking at this on television and goes crazy. he feels he's been betrayed. he feels you know, this -- and what he really says is this just shows that the co-presidency won't work. that jerry ford is not going to be that kind of a team player. and reagan turns to i think it was len and he says to him, bush. now, this -- someone who was close to those people in those days said to me that ford actually knew what he was doing. that in fact he -- he -- i don't want to say committed suicide, but he did that so that reagan would, in fact choose bush. do you think -- >> i don't know that for a fact. the one thing that would argue against that henry, is that ford there is plenty

george bush went after noriega for a methodical forceful manner , to think that he has a lot on george bush. worked longega enough with the cia and other intelligence agencies at the u.s. government to have a great deal of information that could be embarrassing to the u.s.. i don't know whether that information needs to come out for the trial. it may not pertain to the charges against him. >> is it true that we trade -- paid noriega working intelligence contact $200,000 a year? >> what i was able to ascertain was that in the 1970's he was paid up to $110,000 a year. it was not paid personally. g-numbe2.d to the he had control of the money. in the 1980's he was paid starting at $185,000. it went up. this is a payment from one intelligent organization. >> what chance do you give panama for surviving under a new government? >> the real trick is whether is aneadership, which oligarchic leadership, whether they will be clever enough to reach out to the poor sectors of panama and help lift their living standards and be popular. one of the big mistakes leadership has made this far is to do aw

that nancy reagan did not like george bush. nancy reagan did not like the fact that he had coined the term voodoo economics. bush had gotten out of the race at time -- in time. he had gotten out of the race, so he was not holding on like pat buchanan and some other people, but there was a bad taste in the reagan people's mouths about george bush. they thought he was too moderate and that he would not be a good match. reagan himself comes up with the idea, along with kissinger, who is in reagan's ear, about bringing ford in. there is nothing that prohibits gerald ford from coming in. he can be elected vice president as many times as he wants. the constitution does not say, so the negotiations go through between henry kissinger, brent scowcroft, i believe, and the reagan team, and they are this close. reagan is about to drop this bombshell, and ford goes on up into the skybox in detroit, and he talks to walter cronkite. cronkite has got pieces of the story, and he says, are you a candidate for the vice presidency, and ford goes o

i'm talking about president george herbert walker bush. what is his connection here? first of all, we witnessed the unveiling of the president george h.w. bush gallery. so that is a connection. but there are two others i want to talk about. the first is something of a curiosity, and it relates to things that have been discussed. the amendments that we call the bill of rights were sent to the states for ratification on september 25, 1789. congress and 12 amendments to the states, but the states originally ratified only 10 amendments. amendments, ite is certainly true that the first to really don't seem -- two really don't seem to fit in with what we consider the bill of rights. has still not it been ratified and probably never will be. [laughter] the second, which also does not fit with the provisions of the bill of rights, had a different history. it was finally ratified by the requisite number of states on 200-plus years after it was originally sent out by congress. it has to do with congressional pay. it provides that if congress gives it self a pay raise, it will no

both george w. bush, we could argue all day long about the wisdom of iraq -- iraq and afghanistan -- but both george w. bush and barack obama were intensely focused on keeping the nation secure. we have not been attacked again directly by foreign terrorist organizations. there have been attacks inspired, but not directed. that is a testament, in large part, to the focus of both of those presidents on the most important issue facing the country. presidential legacies are important to individuals. you see it now with president obama. i think it is natural and understandable for two-term presidents, the last years are not focused on history. not their own parties, necessarily, or even public opinion. i think it is inevitable that presidents will want to look beyond their terms, at a certain point in those terms, to shape history. and posterity will look at the presidencies. host: recommendations from our guest aaron david miller include the following, read more presidential history. think transaction, not t

bush, the 43rd president of the united states. when george h.w. bush took office, even though in public they said very kind things about the departing president reagan, internally the tone was very different. so internally, president bush, when he took office in 1989, essentially stepped on the brakes. he and his team thought that gorbachev might not be for real and might be trying to lull the united states into a false sense of security and they didn't want to be trapped by the ruse. there was a tiny chance he was for real but he could be dispensed with a single bullet and the soviet union retaped the capability to destroy the united states. so either way, either he was a fake or for real, either way the result was the same. the new bush team thought they needed to be very wary of hip. so the new bush team decided to really clean house in a radical way. political scientist aren't as interested in the history of this period, just interested in the mechanism of political transition, so how one presidential administration switches to another, studied
