He’s a WASHINGTON outsider.

Oh, you mean like Bush was?

Rick Perry’s father wasn’t president.

Not exactly MENSA quality reasoning there, d2.

The Perry’s were dry land cotton farmers...didn’t even own the land they farmed...tenant farmers. There was no pedigree there, no wealth, no big name that once was a Senator...namely Prescott Bush, then his son George HW Bush who held a variety of DC positions from congressman to an ambassadorship to CIA to president, and in between, the Republican National Committee...ran for Senate and lost to Lloyd Bentson or he would’ve served there, too.

GW came from a state gpvernership, but everything else about him screams establishment family...went to Andover Prep, Yale and Harvard Business.

Perry graduated from Paint Creek High School that was so tiny and rural it barely existed.

Became an Aggie.

He came from nothing.

His family, nor himself, had any Washington DC experience or connections.

GWB was certainly different from that.

Think it though, if you care to be bothered, or if you dare.

I like Bush, but Perry is not Bush and I don’t know why you’re bringing Bush up.

The Bush family does not even support Perry. Long standing differences.
