Bush Sr. ran in the primary against reagan in 79-80, was reagans VP from 80-88; in 1988 he was elected president; in 92 he lost to Clinton, who won again in 96 and was replaced by Bush II in 2000 who was re-elected in 2004; Clinton II currently battles for the white house in 2008. For 29 years a Bush or Clinton has either fought to, or has occupied the white house

what about in school no wearing shorts, girls had to wear skirts at least 4 fingers from the knee and shirts with sleeves, no gum allowed or detention, and if you had a pager and got caught with it that was the end of the world to them, you mustve been a drug dealer. Now i drive down the street and the kids are wearing whatever they want, i remember getting in trouble cuz i bought a pair of JNCOs with the big bottoms and the teachers thought they were unappropriate.
