A poem made up entirely of actual quotes from George W. Bush. MAKE THE PIE HIGHER by George W. Bush I think we all agree, the past is over. This is still a dangerous world. It's a world of madmen and uncertainty and potential mental losses. Rarely is the question asked Is our children learning? Will the highways of the internet become more few? How many hands have I shaked? They misunderestimate me. I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity. I know that the human being and the fish can coexist. Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream. Put food on your family! Knock down the tollbooth! Vulcanize Society! Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher! Major league.

Yes, it is a real problem. People do not spend nearly enough time on ancient and Medieval history, and even early modern history is given short shrift. To take a smallish matter: few people realize that strictly speaking, the Roman Empire lasted about 1500 years, from the time of Augustus to the fall of Constantinople. The Chinese Empire, despite turmoil, lasted in one form or another for nearly twice as long. Many countries, like France, have been unified for several hundred years. America is still a youthful country, and may very well have its best years ahead.......
