HERE IS GEORGE W. BUSH!
GEORGE AND I, My Conversations with GW Bush, by John Bake is a fictionalized work that intends to provide an entertaining perspective on Bush's presidential career. It offers a humorous and fictitious look at what it might have been like to sit in with former President George W. Bush during his presidency.With George and I, Bake hopes to dispel some of the negative impressions the public has about Bush and government competence. Bake tackles a unique view of a U.S. president that, according to him, transformed and created situations for the country that were not always favorable.
Bake intends for George and I to be a satire, but is based on actual events that happened throughout Bush's tenure. Bake fills George and I with imagined anecdotes that the author feels he would have gathered had he been close to the former president. For example, Bake tells of the president's habit of referring to important political colleagues by nicknames that he had made up, making it difficult to determine whom he was talking about. In casual conversation, Bush would often mention nicknames like the Cobra, Stretch, Hogan, Tiny, La Margarita, Brownie, Ari Bob and Speedy, which led to the author spending much of his time trying to match the nickname to the prominent political figure.
George and I is meant to convey the message that the type and scope of problems facing a president demand exceptional fortitude and a great deal of good humor. Bake wants to show some of Bush's sense of humor and great love for his country.
George and I: My Conversations with George W. Bush is available online at Amazon.com and other channels.
