**Bush was the Governor of Texas in June 1999 when he announced his candidacy for president**
Any number of politicians have gotten promotions by running for higher office while they weere in office. LBJ was a good example. He became VP while he was a senator.
It appears that Georgia’s Sterling is receiving a $10 million state grant as a private contractor while working as a state employee.
.....apples vs oranges.
Rattburger's request to use Sterling's commercial e-mail address stinks of them trying to hide things in unofficial accounts a la Hillary Clinton.
