Bush has an MBA in economics from Yale and is greatly admired by Forbes. And Forbes would have had the exact same media treatment for eight solid years as Bush got with the only difference being Forbes and his family would have been relentlessly mocked for their looks.
Apparently you bought into the anti-Bush propaganda.
I doubt that Forbes would have chosen Henry Paulson; and I know he was not for that bailout that McCain ran bacd to DC to vote for.
