Bush. Obama. A rare thing in common: having respect for the “other side.”

George W. Bush became the first to open a State of the Union with “Madam Speaker,” honoring Nancy Pelosi as the first woman to lead the House — acknowledging not just a political opponent, but a historic moment for the country.

Years later, Obama echoed that spirit, talking about the power of work and dreams over birthright — pointing to the daughter of a factory worker leading GM, and the son of a bartender, John Boehner, becoming Speaker.

These weren’t kumbaya moments — they were real reminders that respect and recognition across the aisle matter. And that the American promise still runs deeper than politics.
