No, but I will name my next child "Ambrose," especially if it's a girl.

If you think about it GWB is not only the child of a President, but his father's career puts him in two political "bloodlines": Eisenhower -> Nixon -> GHWB -> GWB and Reagan -> GHWB -> GWB. Reagan's impression on G.W. Bush and today's GOP is stronger, but that Eisenhower-Nixon lineage is always in the background, and was very important in shaping the previous Bush Presidency. Perhaps it will also be found to be the stronger influence on this Bush Presidency as well.

You're probably right. The Eisenhower-Nixon influence on the GOP was the longest in the 20th century, as opposed to Reagan's, which was brief, in comparison. That Nixon-Eisenhower influence would be a good thing in foreign affairs, but could be a handicap domestically.
