Bush was born in Massachusetts to Senator and New York Banker Prescott Bush and Dorothy Walker Bush. Following the attacks on Pearl Harbor in 1941, at the age of 18, Bush postponed going to college and became the youngest aviator in the US Navy at the time.[1] He served until the end of the war, then attended Yale University. Graating in 1948, he moved his family to West Texas and entered the oil business, becoming a millionaire by the age of 40.
He became involved in politics soon after founding his own oil company, serving as a member of the House of Representatives, among other positions. He ran unsuccessfully for president of the United States in 1980, but was chosen by party nominee Ronald Reagan to be the vice presidential nominee, and the two were subsequently elected. During his tenure, Bush headed administration task forces on deregulation and fighting drug abuse.
In 1988, Bush launched a successful campaign to succeed Reagan as president, defeating Democratic opponent Michael Dukakis. Foreign policy drove the Bush presidency; military operations were concted in Panama and the Persian Gulf at a time of world change; the Berlin Wall fell in 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolved two years later. Domestically, Bush reneged on a 1988 campaign promise and after a struggle with Congress, signed an increase in taxes that Congress had passed. In the wake of economic concerns, he lost the 1992 presidential election to Democrat Bill Clinton.
Bush is the father of George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States, and Jeb Bush, former Governor of Florida. He is the last president to have been a World War II veteran. Until the election of his son George W. Bush to the presidency in 2000, Bush was commonly referred to simply as "George Bush"; since that time, the form "George H.W. Bush", "Bush41", or "George Bush, Sr." has come into common use as a way to distinguish the father from the son.
Envoy to China
Gerald Ford, Nixon's successor, appointed Bush to be Chief of the US Liaison Office in the People's Republic of China. Since the United States at the time maintained official relations with the Republic of China on Taiwan and not the People's Republic of China, the Liaison Office did not have the official status of an embassy and Bush did not formally hold the position of "ambassador", though he unofficially acted as one. The time that he spent in China — 14 months — was seen as largely beneficial for US-Chinese relations.[12]
After Ford's accession to the presidency, Bush was under serious consideration for being nominated as Vice President. Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona declined to be considered and endorsed Bush, who, along with his supporters, reportedly mounted an internal campaign to get a nomination.[citation needed] Ford eventually narrowed his list to Nelson Rockefeller and Bush. However, White House Chief of Staff Donald Rumsfeld reportedly preferred Rockefeller over Bush. Rockefeller was finally named and confirmed.

2002年9月17日，布什正式签署发表了"美国*战略" 报告。该报告更系统地解释了"布什原则" 的三大要素。报告指出，从遏制与威慑原则向"先发制人"原则的转变，是由于非理性的恐怖主义份子不受遏制与威慑的阻扼；美国价值观的普适性，是因为"地球上没有人渴望被压迫，渴望受奴役，或热切期待着秘密*的夜半敲门"；美国保持不可挑战的军事力量是基于"美国特色的国际主义"（a distinctly American internationalism），它"反映了价值观与国家利益的统一"。美国将创造出一种"17世纪民族－国家出现以来"的崭新局面，即国家间将只有经济竞争而无军事竞争。总之，美国"将通过打击恐怖主义组织和*政权而保卫和平"。伊拉克战争就正是"布什原则"的第一次应用。
"布什原则"问世后，西方*普遍认为它是后冷战时代的"大战略"（grand strategy），其意义与1947年乔治．坎南提出的冷战时代的"遏制"战略相当。
