"As a Yankee aristocrat and a non-lawyer, Bush showed less interest in issues relating to the Supreme Court than other presidents before and after him." This statement under the politics section is odd. It seems more like conjecture then actual fact. The source also is a CNN analyst which might lend more credence to why I think it is not proven factual and more opinionated. I think it should be removed and re-written, specifically the "Yankee aristocrat" statement and the claim that he showed less interest in the court, as that would be difficult to ascertain since we may never know with certainty President G.H.W. Bush’s motivations. Hunnydaisy (talk) 04:31, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This page is dumb and no longer notable. And the "Overview" secion is not an overview, and is statements of opinions that are irrelevant, unsourced, and arguably incorrect. 169.252.4.22 (talk) 14:52, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
