Bush the Lesser made a point of distancing himself from *his* father (“no, I don’t ask him for advice. I ask another father”) — and he didn’t even have anything to be embarassed about. On both foreign policy and economics, he wanted us all to know he’d be different than his dad.

Neither Cruz nor Paul are willing to make that separation.

You know, maybe he should have. I am not a huge H.W Bush fan but I think he was better than his son and Reagan.
