9. Isn't Schweitzer the most popular governor in America?

I can only imagine how he'd do as president. I once called Schweitzer "the George W. Bush they sold us." Think back to all the shit they said about Bush--businessman, rancher, this, that and the other thing--and that's exactly who Schweitzer is. The Bush we got is a drunk who got through Harvard with a record of Gentleman's C's, is afraid of horses and bankrupts oil companies. Schweitzer, OTOH, is successful at all those things.

He also has THE most tolerant wife in the entire world: if you read Schweitzer's history, they spent their honeymoon buying a center-pivot sprinkler system for their farm. No wife considers an ag-equipment dealership a great honeymoon destination, with the exception of Nancy Schweitzer.
