Former President George W. Bush will be speaking at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum on Nov. 18.
As part of the library’s “Perspective on Leadership Forum,” Bush will be discussing his memoir “Decision Points,” which brings readers inside the Texas governor’s mansion on the night of the hotly contested 2000 election, and aboard Air Force One on 9/11 in the hours after the attack on the World Trade Center Towers.
The book also goes into detail about Bush at the head of the table in the Situation Room in the moments before launching the war in Iraq, and at the Oval Office during controversial decisions on the financial crisis, Hurricane Katrina and other notable events.

Perspectives On Leadership Forum with President George W. Bush
President George W. Bush will address the Perspectives on Leadership Forum at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library on Thursday, November 18, 2010. Tickets for the lecture are $95 per person, which includes a served dinner. Signed copies of his book will be available in the Library’s Museum Store before and after the event.
Decision Points is the extraordinary memoir of America’s 43rd president. Shattering the conventions of the political autobiography, George W. Bush offers a strikingly candid journey through the defining decisions of his life.
In gripping, never-before-heard detail, President Bush brings readers inside the Texas Governor’s Mansion on the night of the hotly contested 2000 election; aboard Air Force One on 9/11, in the hours after America’s most devastating attack since Pearl Harbor; at the head of the table in the Situation Room in the moments before launching the war in Iraq; and behind the Oval Office desk for his historic and controversial decisions on the financial crisis, Hurricane Katrina, Afghanistan, Iran, and other issues that have shaped the first decade of the 21st century.
President Bush writes honestly and directly about his flaws and mistakes, as well as his accomplishments. He also offers intimate new details on his decision to quit drinking, discovery of faith, and relationship with his family.
Tickets for the main lecture hall are now sold-out for this event.
However, tickets are still available for the remote-viewing satellite screening of President Bush’s speech, plus the served dinner, in our Air Force One Pavilion. To purchase tickets for this area, please click here.

Hey thank the RINO for getting Obama elected and destroying the Party.
But, you certainly **can** thank President Bush for us not gretting hit again in this country after 9/11 -- a feat few would have thought possible on 9/12/01.
For all his faults, THIS will be his legacy, IMHO.

Some people just need to go soak their head...then possible to make a reasonable deductions....sheesh
No one is forcing you to go to the event or post in the thread.
BDS is a tragic mental state...my sympathies.
I wonder if he will say his not doing anything to secure the border and allowing the illegals into the country was and is a mistake.
You guys really need to stop throwing this little concocted, nonsensical mistruth around.
The more historical perspective we get, the more the truth is sorted out, the sillier you look. There were a host of reasons why Obama got elected. President Bush is not among them.
I'm sure Ronald Reagan would be honored to have a fellow leader, a man of courage and character, as he was, to speak at his library.
Honorable men understand each other.
BDS truly is a sickness, on the left or on the right.
Hmmm...considering that he's speaking at the library of a president who SIGNED an amnesty bill into law...
And I would have crawled over broken glass to vote for President Reagan (had I been old enough), and I did, for President Bush.
It seems like everyone is a RINO except us on Free Republic...and perhaps instead of the RINOs, it is our expectation of ideological purity that put us in our current position.
If Bush is a RINO because of amnesty, then Reagan is a RINO writ large.
BDS doesn't correspond with logic. It's an emotional thing, and rational people will never understand it.
But, you certainly **can** thank President Bush for us not gretting hit again in this country after 9/11 — a feat few would have thought possible on 9/12/01.

Ole “Ill see you at the signing” Got us hit with something much worse OBAMA!!!
“BDS is a tragic mental state...my sympathies.”
NO the Guy was a Super RINO that made McCain look sane!!
LOL LOL rolling up on a ball when the Rats attacked and Get this the constant droning of the “Great Religion” then bringing them in by the 100’s of thousands..
YEAH that is a real American! HE is a NE Liberal about as far removed as you get.
Yes using our troops for IED detectors was his hallmark and Jailing Marines another master touch.
