George H. W. Bush

George Herbert Walker Bush was the forty-first President of the United States. He has made appearances in a few Mario cartoon episodes. He was never referred to by his actual name in any of his appearances.

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Plumbers Academy / Glasnuts", George has a small role in both the animated and live action segments. In "Plumbers Academy", George was giving Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev a drive-by tour around Brooklyn, when the street started flooding with water. Mario and Luigi, determined to prove themselves as great plumbers, dived down into the sewers to stop the source of the flood. Later on at the White House, George awarded Mario with a Golden Plunger, and Luigi with a Golden Wrench.

In "Glasnuts", George simply calls the Mario Bros. to tell them that Mikhail Gorbachev is coming over.

In the live action segment of "Bad Rap / Caught in a Draft", Sgt. Slaughter visits the Mario Bros. to train them for the army, as ordered by the President. Later on, George calls, but Sgt. Slaughter answers the phone, and learns the truth; He was supposed to recruit Ratigator, not the Marios.

In The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Reptiles in the Rose Garden", despite the fact that the White House is lifted up from the ground and warped to Dark Land, George never notices, as he spends the entire episode talking on the phone. Even when King Koopa sinks the Whitehouse to the bottom of Mushroom Sea does George not notice what's going on. Instead, his wife Barbara does all the talking when Mario arrives to save them.

Eventually, Mario returned the White House to Washington DC, and George was able to continue his job with running America until the end of his term.
