I can't say I was a fan of his politics, but I don't doubt his sincerity and intentions. He did a lot of charity work and collaborated with both Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton after his presidency for charitable works.
I am kind of torn on his legacy. On one hand, be continued and even elevated the neo-con movement started by Reagan, but he also did a lot of good outside of his presidency using his fame for good causes.

Destroy a whole region than have people ignore everything when u die just cause ur an American President. He wont be missed same with his son when he drops. Millions of lives have been ruined, they dont care how "classless" it is to call out his terrorism.

Meh, the guy started a legacy that his own son completed, turning death, blood and corruption into the norm.

Actually he did the GOP a disservice because if he died a couple of months earlier, they could have used it as a rallying cry.

Obama, a class act as he always is, especially when we know the classlessness to follow. One thing about 41, his sock game was A+.

Do we have to act all classy when Trump kicks the bucket too? Bush was a scumbag. Who cares if he's dead? He was 94. He had a good run.

I wonder if he had requested that Trump not attend his funeral like Barbara Bush did.

I'm indifferent on GWB's death, but I'll stop short of dancing on the street when Trump kicks the bucket.
