How does experts evaluate George Bush’s Foreign Policy?

It was George W., for example, who confronted his father’s chief of staff, John Sununu, with the news that he would have to resign after the imperious Sununu had overstepped his authority one too many times. After advising his father during the painful 1992 electoral loss to Bill Clinton, the younger Bush defeated incumbent Texas Governor Ann Richards in 1994, and then won reelection in 1998 with 69% of the vote, catapulting himself into the hunt for the Republican presidential nomination. After locking up the party’s nomination in the summer of 2000, George W. successfully defeated then- Vice President Al Gore to become the 43rd President of the United States. This quick review of George W. Bush’s past suggests that he has grown from an undisciplined, disinterested citizen to a more disciplined, focused leader.  In each of his campaigns from 1994 to 2004, along with his time in office in both Texas and Washington D.C., Bush revealed himself as an enthusiastic, “methodical, disciplined candidate and officeholder.” His presidential character supports his placement in the active-positive quadrant of Barber’s typology. For Bush, there is, first, his energy, enthusiasm, and charisma, which he has used to great effect. Second, there is his deep reservoir of self-confidence- even arrogance, some say- that supports him in all his efforts.
