George W. Bush: “On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.”

Laura and I are fortunate to have known Andrew Wyeth and to have had the pleasure of enjoying his work.

Government does have a role to play in health care, but a robust private market is critical to ensuring that health care is affordable and accessible for all Americans.

We are very pleased that Alan Lowe has been selected by the National Archives and Records Administration as the director of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum.

We look forward to working with him and the National Archives to build a world-class Presidential library and museum that will be an important resource for scholars and the general public.
