- Share via
NEW ORLEANS — Vice President George Bush today introduced his three Mexican-American grandchildren to President Reagan as “the little brown ones” as the two met briefly at a nearby airport.
After both Bush and Reagan made brief remarks on the Tarmac at Belle Chasse Naval Air Station, the vice president told the President he wanted him to meet his three grandchildren who had flown with him on Air Force 2 from Washington.
“These are Jebby’s kids from Florida, the little brown ones,” Bush said. The three children--Jeb Jr., Noelle and George P.--are the children of Bush’s son, Jeb, and his Mexican-born wife, Columba.
Bush has often bragged about the family, which lives in Tallahassee, Fla.
