BUSH MATH--41, 43, 44

We at MRJEFF3000 were pointed toward this September 2003 US News webpage by an Atrios comment. Look halfway down for the money paragraph.

His dad, Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, calls him "son." His friends call him "P." But President Bush, America's 43rd, and his dad, the 41st president, call George P. Bush something else: "44." Insiders say it's just for fun but also an acceptance that the most political of former President George H.W. Bush's grandkids is itching for a public career, including a distant shot at the White House.

Merry Christmas, y'all.
