The person in American Politics who I say works hard to be successful is the President of the United States of America George W. Bush.

John Edwards grew in a working class family, was the first to graduate from college in his family, and graduated with high honors. Now he's stinking rich.

Bill Clinton came from a poor home with an alcoholic step father and managed to become president.

I call that being succesful.

Bush Jr on the other hand relied on his famous name to get him through. He'd probably flipping burgers without it.

John McCain is a true American hero that got to where he is today through pure hard work.
