Barbara Bush on public service and giving back

Oct 29, 2003


Talking about her life in politics and how it got started, Barbara Bush recalls how it all began. Her husband President Bush was in business for a long time, she explained. "He worked hard, paid taxes, did all those good things I think Americans should do," and they built a good life for themselves. Then they decided it was time to "turn around and give back." And the rest, as they say, is history.

Watch the full talk.
