Another I didn’t see on the list is abortion. George H. W. Bush was pro-choice before he got on the ticket with Reagan. He had to flip to get on the ticket.
At the time, abortion didn’t seem to be as high a profile issue as it is today. I guess that’s one reason it was largely unnoticed.
George’s father, the late Senator Prescott Bush, was on the board for the organization that later became known as Planned Parenthood. And Senator Prescott Bush was their first treasurer. Several in the Bush family (mostly wives and daughters not seeking votes) are still pro-choice.

Another thing I’ll mention is George H. W. Bush sold us down the river with all these free trade agreements.
“New World Order” G.H.W. Bush was on the plane with Kissinger and others that secretly set up the meetings between Nixon and the Chinese. G.H.W. Bush was an ambassador to China. He had a lot to do with taking China from being a 3rd world nation to being the industrial and military power they are today.
GHW Bush was knee deep in transferring so much of our strength and greatness to other nations. He sold us down the river. He’s got oil all over his hands.
Reagan was told that he needed Bush on the ticket to win in 1980. I believe Reagan could have won without him. Reagan’s appeal certainly wasn’t Bush. Either way, it has come back to hurt us.
Out of the Bushes, W is the most conservatives and likeable to me but he made way too many mistakes. I certainly won’t be voting for Jeb.
Our nation has been looted, ruined, and its people sold out by a few generations of power elites that set about enriching themselves, their families, and associates.
After our population was dumbed down by the poisoned education system, it was easy for them to do it. The people just sat still and watched it happen, and some of them were so stupid, they even helped make it happen!
Remember HW’s VOODOO ECONOMICS? When he was asked about it after being selected veep he said “I have evolved.”
