Default your biography on George W. Bush

You need to straighten out your biography of George W.
Bush - as it stands now, it is practically incoherent.

Some examples:

'Laura was a huge influence on George W. Bush. She inspired him to read and talk about the Bible, and in
1986 just after his 40th birthday, he quit drinking from one day to the next. George W. Bush's learned to take hold of self-discipline, and to love his public life as a "pol."'

- Quit drinking from one day to the next? What does that mean?
- His public life as a "pol"? He was governor of Texas, and is now President of the United States.

Another example:

"On 12/13/2000, the nation accepted George W. Bush's concession speech and became President-elect."

- The nation ... became President-elect. What???
- George W. Bush's concession speech? I know you probably still can't accept it*, but he gave a ***victory*** speech.

* I say this because I also read your biography of Al Gore Junior. I lost count of how many times you called that **** **** **** a "statesman" or other word of high praise.

Thank you.
