Governor
George W. Bush, Austin, Texas, 2000 - Governor Bush looked at you
the way a boxer does - by not quite looking at you. The first time
we met, he asked if I was from Scotland. I answered yes, but told
him that my wife was from Seguin, Texas. That surprised him. Before
he was elected president, I photographed him holding an antique
wooden golf club at the Governor's Mansion. He said his grandfather
used to play with wooden clubs. Asked what I had been doing since
we last met, I told him I had become an American citizen. He pointed
the club at me and said, "I'm asking for your vote." I
laughingly said that we'd see how the photo session went that day. |
