Laura Bush's performance in her news conference on Monday 5/5 showed her both poised and prepared. I'm sure her words influenced many around the world, especially the Myanmar (Burma) generals. She would be a great asset to the McCain/Clinton/Obama administration.
I see her as having a role in U.S. or world government in the future, much like Elizabeth Dole. I would be curious to find out whether her news conference created a more positive feeling for the U.S. and for her as opposed to her husband's low esteem among world leaders.
George W. also presented his case to the U.S. people and to the world community. I wonder who's presentation was better accepted? "W" hasn't a very good track record in this regard; my guess is that her wife surpassed him in counting the number of people who had a positive reaction.
She seems to have a more inclusive world vision than does her husband, a positive trait for dealing with various cultures and countries in today's world. She also seems to have determination and strength of character to hold her own, not only with the reporters in the briefing room in the White House but also with world leaders and the Security Council.
I pray for the people of Burma (Myanmar) that they may survive and not experience hunger and deprivation. Let's hope that the government will continue to allow the U.S., the UN, and many other generous countries into the country to help the Myanmar (Burmese) people.
