  • George H.W. Bush used his inaugural address to discuss the drug problem in America, likening cocaine to a deadly bacteria that has hurt the body and soul of the country. He was was sworn into office on January 20, 1989.

      Curious George.
      Ronald Mcdonald.
      When Kennedy was took out the very next president began the start of the finish. In that year, Nation vs Nation was an antique dilemma that transitioned into Good VS Evil
      literally.
      Kennedy gave a speech that predicted events far into his future both covertly and in today 2024,
      Arrogantly and Overtly. In our schools, our stores, our neighborhoods, our workplaces and overall in our faces!
      Signs & Symbols rule the world not words or laws.

I always remember how President GH W Bush or Bush Senior visited my Alma mater Birmingham-Southern in 1989 May for something for an Environmental Act.
