With little hope of getting much legislation passed in an election
year, Bush plans to stay relevant through an aggressive schedule of
fund raising and rally stops for Republican candidates, most of whom
are still eager for presidential visits. One Bush adviser sees
political promise for the President in a nuclear peril. "Certainly,
there's going to be a serious showdown on Iran," he said. "He's very
relevant on that, and that may help his numbers a little bit." Through
the challenges, the President has kept his human touch.
Touring New Orleans last week, he met a man who had survived for days
on canned goods before being evacuated to Utah. "Were you the only
black man in Salt Lake City?" Bush asked.
