Bush's tax cut plan. A new movie has a loyal following, thanks to the faithful. The U.S. signals a policy of disengagement towards Russia.
Leaders have different styles, different ways of communicating their message to the people.
After viewing this segment, ask students how they would describe George W. Bush's style of communicating his message. Then, divide your class into small groups. Have each group choose one modern president, beginning with Franklin D. Roosevelt, and conduct research to learn what his legislative priorities were and how he promoted them. Groups may want to interview older family members and friends who remember these presidents and can offer information on their styles of communication. Direct each group to present its findings.
