The Legacy of George H.W. Bush

Guest: James Goldgeier, Visiting Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, Professor of International Relations, American University Since his passing, many have praised Bush for his humility, kind temperament and generosity, but he wasn’t elected for a second term, which in modern US politics is considered a failure. He was criticized for lacking a domestic agenda, but Bush's primary passion and work was in foreign policy, and he played a key role in the reunification of Germany, the expansion of NATO, Russian's transition from communism, and - of course - the Middle East.
