• [100] First term Reagan and Bush in a meeting to discuss the United States’ invasion of Grenada with a group of bipartisan members of Congress in October 1983 On March 30,
  1981, while Bush was in Texas, Reagan was shot and seriously wounded by John Hinckley Jr. Bush immediately flew back to Washington D.C.; when his plane landed, his aides advised him to proceed directly to the White House by helicopter to show
  that the government was still functioning.

• [60] To woo potential candidates in the South and Southwest, House Republicans secured Bush an appointment to the powerful United States House Committee on Ways and Means,
  making Bush the first freshman to serve on the committee since 1904.

• [54] Early political career (1963–1971) Entry into politics Former president Dwight D. Eisenhower with Bush By the early 1960s, Bush was widely regarded as an appealing political
  candidate, and some leading Democrats attempted to convince Bush to become a Democrat.

• [101] Prior to the New Hampshire primary, Bush and Reagan agreed to a two-person debate, organized by The Nashua Telegraph but paid for by the Reagan campaign.

• [78] During Bush’s tenure at the RNC, the Watergate scandal emerged into public view; the scandal originated from the June 1972 break-in of the Democratic National Committee
  but also involved later efforts to cover up the break-in by Nixon and other members of the White House.

• Motivated by Tower’s victory and hoping to prevent the far-right John Birch Society from coming to power, Bush ran for the chairmanship of the Harris County Republican Party,
  winning election in February 1963.

• Ford ultimately chose Nelson Rockefeller, partly because of the publication of a news report claiming that Bush’s 1970 campaign had benefited from a secret fund set up by
  Nixon; Bush was later cleared of any suspicion by a special prosecutor.

• [100] Bush also generally enjoyed a good relationship with Reagan staffers, including Bush’s close friend James Baker, who served as Reagan’s initial chief of staff.

• Ultimately, the other four candidates left the stage, and the debate continued, but Bush’s refusal to debate anyone other than Reagan badly damaged his campaign in New Hampshire.

• [3] After leaving office in 1993, Bush was active in humanitarian activities, often working alongside Clinton, his former opponent.

• As Reagan built up a commanding delegate lead, Bush refused to end his campaign, but the other candidates dropped out of the race.

• [112] His understanding of the vice presidency was heavily influenced by Vice President Walter Mondale, who enjoyed a strong relationship with President Carter in part because
  of his ability to avoid confrontations with senior staff and Cabinet members, and by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller’s difficult relationship with some members of the White House staff during the Ford administration.

• [62][63][64][65] In 1968, Bush joined several other Republicans in issuing the party’s Response to the State of the Union address; Bush’s part of the address focused on a
  call for fiscal responsibility.

• [106] At the 1980 Republican National Convention, Reagan made the last-minute decision to select Bush as his vice presidential nominee after negotiations with Ford regarding
  a Reagan–Ford ticket collapsed.

• [107] Though Reagan had resented many of the Bush campaign’s attacks during the primary campaign, and several conservative leaders had actively opposed Bush’s nomination,
  Reagan ultimately decided that Bush’s popularity with moderate Republicans made him the best and safest pick.

• The Democratic Party had historically dominated Texas, but Republicans scored their first major victory in the state with John G. Tower’s victory in a 1961 special election
  to the United States Senate.

• Bush, who had believed his political career might be over following the primaries, eagerly accepted the position and threw himself into campaigning for the Reagan–Bush ticket.

• [111] Vice presidency (1981–1989) As vice president, Bush generally maintained a low profile, recognizing the constitutional limits of the office; he avoided decision-making
  or criticizing Reagan in any way.

• As the president of the Senate, Bush also stayed in contact with members of Congress and kept the president informed on occurrences on Capitol Hill.

• [126] President Reagan and Secretary of State George Shultz took the lead in these negotiations, but Bush sat in on many meetings.

• Out of public office for the first time since the 1960s, Bush became chairman on the executive committee of the First International Bank in Houston.

• That same year, his father won election to represent Connecticut in the United States Senate as a member of the Republican Party.

• [57] Despite the loss, The New York Times reported that Bush was “rated by political friend and foe alike as the Republicans’ best prospect in Texas because of his attractive
  personal qualities and the strong campaign he put up for the Senate”.

• [100] Days before the debate, Reagan announced that he would invite four other candidates to the debate; Bush, who had hoped that the one-on-one debate would allow him to
  emerge as the main alternative to Reagan in the primaries, refused to debate the other candidates.

• Biographer Jon Meacham writes that Bush’s relocation to Texas allowed him to move out of the “daily shadow of his Wall Street father and Grandfather Walker, two dominant figures
  in the financial world,” but would still allow Bush to “call on their connections if he needed to raise capital.

• He declined to leave the Republican Party, later citing his belief that the national Democratic Party favored “big, centralized government”.

• [70] The position represented Bush’s first foray into foreign policy, as well as his first major experiences with the Soviet Union and China, the two major U.S. rivals in
  the Cold War.

• [59] U.S. House of Representatives Bush in 1969 Bush greeting then California Governor Ronald Reagan in 1967 In 1966, Bush ran for the United States House of Representatives
  in Texas’s 7th congressional district, a newly redistricted seat in the Greater Houston area.

• Foreign policy drove the Bush presidency as he navigated the final years of the Cold War and played a key role in the reunification of Germany.

• Bush lost the 1992 presidential election to Democrat Bill Clinton following an economic recession, his turnaround on his tax promise, and the decreased emphasis of foreign
  policy in a post–Cold War political climate.

• [127] On July 13, 1985, Bush became the first vice president to serve as acting president when Reagan underwent surgery to remove polyps from his colon; Bush served as the
  acting president for approximately eight hours.

• All six candidates took the stage, but Bush refused to speak in the presence of the other candidates.

• President Richard Nixon appointed Bush to the position of Ambassador to the United Nations in 1971 and to the position of chairman of the Republican National Committee in
  1973.

• [108] The 1980 general election campaign between Reagan and Carter was conducted amid a multitude of domestic concerns and the ongoing Iran hostage crisis, and Reagan sought
  to focus the race on Carter’s handling of the economy.

• After the win, Bush stated that his campaign was full of momentum, or “the Big Mo”,[99] and Reagan reorganized his campaign.

• [105] The Reagan–Bush ticket won the 1980 presidential election with 50.7% of the popular vote and a large majority of the electoral vote After Reagan clinched a majority

• [109] Though the race was widely regarded as a close contest for most of the campaign, Reagan ultimately won over the large majority of undecided voters.

• [100] Partly in response to the Bush campaign’s frequent questioning of Reagan’s age (Reagan turned 69 in 1980), the Reagan campaign stepped up attacks on Bush, painting him
  as an elitist who was not truly committed to conservatism.

• [66] Though most other Texas Republicans supported Ronald Reagan in the 1968 Republican Party presidential primaries, Bush endorsed Richard Nixon, who went on to win the party’s
