George W Bush wins Congress seat in 1978

Just when you can't think of a more idiotic senario but suppose W managed to eake out a congressional win in 1978 well that would change his future......

Assuming he still becomes president, he's better experienced and more popular...there's an answer to earlier post about making W in a popular prez.....

After seeing Oliver Stone's W, I can clearly see from his wild behavior he had no chance of winning in 1978.....
Oh, well if he was portrayed as such in a movie thirty years after the fact...

W is highly fictionalized, as are all Oliver Stone movies. Take them for what they are, not historical fact.
 
It is possible that Bush(W) may have won a congress seat. I assume this is in Texas? Really though, at that time his mind was probably not quite set on politics. Maybe H.W Bush just fresh from his CIA director tour would have advised against it, since Big Bush may have been thinking of politics himself, that whole VP to Regan thing. Certainly maybe wise to have the Bush family enter only one man into the political game..

Could you imagine Big George getting a call as VP, and being told your son the congressman is drawing too much attention..


Just a thought..
