George W. Bush

George Walker Bush was a 21st century Human politician who served as President of the United States of America. An image of him shaking hands with British Prime Minister Tony Blair at a NATO summit, was among several historical images seen by Daniels and Archer in the time stream as the timeline reorganized itself. 

A 2003 news article on Bush's State of the Union Address, including his plans to topple Saddam Hussein in Iraq, introduce hydrogen cars, limit abortion and fight AIDS in Africa was in Crewman Daniels' 31st century database. 

Background
Historically, he was President during the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Archival footage of this incident was also used in that episode.

According to Benedict Cumberbatch, has "a massive sort of comment about post-Bush/Cheney era foreign policy and the legacy from that."  Simon Pegg said "Writers always tend to externalize what's going on in everyone's mind. There is a parallel with the terrorist activities of Osama bin Laden and the decision to attack Iraq. Iraq had nothing proven to do with 9/11, and yet Bush used that as an excuse to start a war with those people. You can always see the Klingons as like Iraq and  the proxy for Osama bin Laden."
