Strengths Weaknesses

  • Engaging Charisma: Inspiring voters will not be a hard feat, not only will 3 speeches in a single turn be a viable prospect, but it will matter when changing the pendulum on the issues that matter the most.
  • Media Likability: Getting ads spread out, and in time will be critical towards being in control of the media narrative and bridging the gaps in enthusiasm, allowing George Bush a crucial cornerstone in navigating the map.
  • Troublesome Issue Scores: Not only will the map work towards your disadvantage, but climbing the gauntlet necessary to convince voters you're up to the task will be one of the foremost challenges as George Bush attempts to mount his campaign.
  • Basic Intelligence: George W. Bush's intelligence will hurt him on the political capital front, and will mean he will need to invest in building Networking HQs and connections to make up for potential campaign deficit.
