Bush Presidential Library. As part of the George W. Bush Presidential Center at Southern Methodist University (SMU), we are proud to serve as the nation’s 13th Presidential library administered by the National Archives and Records Administration. The George W. Bush Presidential Library serves as a resource for the study of George W. Bush and the Bush Administration. More generally, the Library also provides invaluable information for the study of the presidency, important events and developments in recent American history, and the making of public policy. The Library accomplishes its mission by preserving and providing access to presidential records and other donated collections, hosting public programs, creating educational initiatives, preserving artifacts, and producing innovative museum exhibits. Our archival collections are extensive. We have over 70 million pages of paper documents, approximately 80 terabytes of electronic information (including over 209 million emails), 43,000 artifacts (consisting primarily of foreign and domestic gifts to the President and First Lady), and an immense audiovisual archives, including nearly 4 million photographs. Our duty is to preserve these materials, process them, and make them accessible for research. Our future museum will tell the story of the Bush Administration within the context of four principles that guide the decisions and actions of the President and Mrs.

  • Policy Brief #155 the Brookings Institution June 2006
    Policy Brief #155 The Brookings Institution June 2006 International Volunteering: Smart Power By Lex Rieffel and Sarah Zalud EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The face of America that has been welcomed most enthusiastically in the rest of the world for decades has been the face of a volunteer: assisting with disaster relief, building houses for poor families, teaching English to university students, and so much more. International volunteer programs contribute directly and indirectly to our nation’s security and well-being. They represent one of the best avenues Americans can pursue to improve relations with the rest of the world. The scale of these programs, however, is far below the levels suggested by their benefits. The federal budget for FY 2006 supports 75,000 AmeriCorps volunteers working domestically but only 7,800 Peace Corps volunteers working in foreign countries. Reflecting the value that Americans see in volunteering overseas, programs in the private sector have grown rapidly in the past ten years. In 2005, at least 50,000 Americans participated in NGO and corporate programs. The number could be much higher, easily more than 100,000, with a program like AmeriCorps that leverages private funding. The number could be doubled again by offering additional options suitable to large pools of talent, such as retiring baby boomers. The potential dividends from scaling up international volunteer programs are impressive relative to most other “soft power” programs of the U.S. government. The time is ripe for a breakthrough in this area, with policies aimed at strengthening existing programs such as increased funding for the Peace Corps, raising the public awareness of volunteer programs overseas, linking service and studie, and measuring effectiveness.

  • News Archive - OU Student Honored by President Bush
    Oakland University - News Archive - OU student honored by President Bush Friday, January 31, 2003 OU student honored by President Bush By Jeff Samoray, OU Web Writer Presidential receptions, speeches, TV interviews – all have been part of Lenny Compton's world since he began his whirlwind trip to Washington, D.C., Jan. 28 as a guest of President George W. Bush for the State of the Union address. Compton, an OU senior education major, was invited to attend the address in recognition of his volunteer work for AmeriCorps, a national community service program to which he has devoted more than 1,800 hours. During the address, Compton sat three chairs away from First Lady Laura Bush in the House Gallery. He also toured the White House, met the president at a post- address reception and spoke with him about volunteerism at a panel discussion on mentoring. "I can't narrow my visit down to the best part, but my favorite part was going to the White House," Compton said. "To be received at the White House was a privilege, and it was an honor to represent Oakland University and the volunteer work that millions are doing across the nation. "After the State of the Union address, we were escorted downstairs to meet the president and the first lady. I had a chance to have a photo taken with them, and I thanked the first lady for having me. President Bush saw me and said, 'I know this gentleman – he's Lenny Compton.' That was a big thrill. I told him I enjoyed his passionate delivery.” Compton's visit was coordinated by the Corporation for National and Community Service, which oversees AmeriCorps, Senior Corps and Learn and Serve America.

  • We're a Peaceful Nation
    “We’re a peaceful nation” – nation” a peaceful “We’re “We’re a peaceful nation” krigsretorik efter 11 september ”Man kan fundera på varför traditionell krigspropaganda i dagens kritiska massmediesamhälle fortfarande fungerar. Svaret är förmodligen enkelt: när det uppstår en hotfull krissituation med många komplicerade faktorer så tas enkla lösningar tacksamt emot. Ett krig som förknippas med begrepp som jakt, spel eller arbete blir mera acceptabelt. En fiende som är ond är ett legitimt mål. Ett krig som omtolkas till humanitär insats är inte längre ett krig. I dagens demokratiska samhälle bör vi emellertid ha kommit längre än att nöja oss med enkla svar, även i akuta krissituationer. Skepsis, tvivel och ifrå- kri gasättanden när det gäller krigsstrategernas verklighetsbeskrivningar bör inte gsretor bara vara tillåtna utan uppmuntras, premieras och prioriteras, för att motverka propagandans övermakt.” Brigitte Mral ikseptember 11 efter Denna studie belyser vilka retoriska grepp som användes under de militära aktioner som inleddes som en direkt följd av händelserna den 11 september. Syftet är att komma fram till en bättre förståelse för krigsstrategernas mål- inriktade arbete med att definiera världen åt oss.

  • Loyalty Day, 2008
    Proclamations Proc. 8245 Through volunteer work, Americans can demonstrate the kindness and gen- erosity that make our Nation great. Mentoring a child, teaching someone to read, visiting the elderly, feeding the hungry, and finding shelter for the homeless are all examples of how Americans can and do aid those in need. Americans are volunteering in record numbers. Each year, millions of Americans volunteer, and more of our fellow citizens are discovering that the pursuit of happiness leads to the path of service. The cumulative effort of the love and compassion from our Nation’s volunteers will help secure a more hopeful future for all our citizens. My Administration remains committed to building a culture of service, citi- zenship, and responsibility. The USA Freedom Corps strengthens civic en- gagement and volunteer service in America and helps people connect with volunteer opportunities. By visiting the USA Freedom Corps website at vol- unteer.gov, individuals can find information about ways they can help in their local areas and across the country. The strength of America comes from its compassionate and loving citizens. National Volunteer Week is an opportunity to show appreciation for our Nation’s volunteers. The time and energy they dedicate to helping those in need reflect the true spirit of America. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim April 27 through May 3, 2008, as National Volunteer Week. I call upon all Americans to recognize and celebrate the important work that volunteers do every day throughout our country.
