Bush, speaking out in rallies and working with punkvoter.com. ”I spent a lot of time doing the campaign when we were trying to get George W. Bush out of office,” he says. “And being that close to someone you really, truly believe is going to change the world is electrifying… You really feel for once that anything is possible.”
