Take of the politics out of it. George H.W. Bush was an accomplished man. I love the Greatest Generation- they did so much and were so humble, unlike todays "me" generation who do nothing but are so self absorbed and take selfies constantly. George H.W. Bush VOLUNTEERED to enter combat, went to Ivy league school, was shot down in war and lived, became an elected official, head of CIA, and then elected President. Quite the resume of a life lived !. RIP Mr. President.

Actually, they cut off the first few minutes of the video. Simpson began by saying that at some speech Simpson was to make, GWH told him to take his time. But Barbara bush told him to cut it short or something like that. And then Simpson say that George H. Bush told him to make the eulogy short in an email and that he must've got that from his mother. The way he said it was both hilarious and heart warming. Too bad they cut it out.

Let’s be united together again by our generosity forgiveness and kindness nature to each other’s service and mistakes this time and unite together and govern by our country America’s own established principles of the Laws afterworlds together for America’s greatness quickly. So we’ll be able to reunite together again for America’s greatness of the safety, prosperity and unity as well as enjoying freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities principles altogether.
