Related: About this forumGeorge P. Bush takes a leading role with the state GOP
http://www.star-telegram.com/2012/08/06/4159811/george-p-bush-takes-a-leading.htmlGeorge P. Bush has signed on to serve as deputy finance chairman for the Republican Party of Texas.
The nephew of former President George W. Bush and son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the 36-year-old Bush -- long considered by some as the future leader of the Republican Party -- has been closely watched from his days at law school to his deployment to Afghanistan as an intelligence officer in the Navy Reserve.
"I am excited about this opportunity to help the Republican Party here in Texas," he told the Star-Telegram in a written statement. "We have excellent candidates running for office who, once elected, will continue the tradition of making Texas the greatest State in the Union."
Political observers say George P. Bush -- who lives in Fort Worth with his wife, Amanda Williams Bush -- has long been considered a key prospect for the Republican Party.

As fake outreach to the Latinos/Hispanics in Texas.
But lets face it - it's going to be hard to reach out to the Latinos in Texas because the repukes keep making laws to keep them from voting. Oh and there's that other thing - that the rabid Texas repuke base hates Latino names on the ballot. Kicking out Latino incumbent after incumbent every primary season.
Little georgie III will have some explaining to do to the Texas Latinos.
