The Presidential Library? - kap - 12-17-2008 Just curious. What is its main purpose? What will be the content in GWB's presidential library? Who's footing the bills for the construction and maintenance?

Here's some info: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/dec/16/george-bush-presidential-library Edit: The library might not be too valuable to historians since Bush signed an executive order classifying his papers indefinitely. Historians are not happy about it and are asking Obama to reverse it. Re: The Presidential Library? - kap - 12-17-2008 Yes, I am serious solely due to GWB's legacy :zzz: ""Langdale says the Bush museum will not avoid the most divisive episodes of the president's eight years in office, such as the administration's much-criticised humanitarian response to Hurricane Katrina. Which is not to say, however, that those controversies might not be subject to some positive historical spin. "There's an interesting lesson about Katrina and the limitations of government assistance to respond to big natural disasters," Langdale said. "They are acts of God, and they are tough. It's definitely a story line I would not shy away from addressing somehow in the museum."" The museum should be built on the spinning spindle!
