I think that fell through after the rumors then evidence of previous cocaine abuse surfaced.

As to being president, he was the "aw, shucks" face with the right name and pedigree to put in front of the camera and parrot the neocon talking points, with no real political philosophy of his own, except to keep his family and friends in money.

Good example as to why hereditary rulers suck the world over.
