George W. Bush: “Together, we can meet the energy challenges we face and keep our economy the strongest, most vibrant, and most hopeful…”

History will remember him as among the finest public servants of his generation – a patriot who brought integrity, high intelligence, and seriousness of purpose to every position.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.

Congratulations on becoming our President.
