George W. Bush Who is the president of the USA?

The current president is George W. Bush, elected in 2000.

He was born in Connecticut, in 1946, and he grew up in Texas.

George is from a wealthy and powerful family. His dad, also called George Bush, was president from 1989-93. His younger brother Jeb was the top politician in Florida. They're all members of the Republican Party.

The Bush family are very distantly related to Princess Diana. That means that President George W. Bush is actually Prince William's 17th cousin!
