George Walker Bush (born July 6, 1946) is the current President of the United States and a former governor of Texas. He is currently in his second and final term as president, which runs until January 20, 2009.
George Bush is the son of former President George H. W. Bush; brother of the current governor of Florida, Jeb Bush, grandson of former U.S. Senator Prescott Bush, and is the second president to be the son of a former United States president (the first was John Quincy Adams).
Bush was elected the 46th governor of Texas in 1994 and re-elected in 1998 as a member of the Republican Party. He won the nomination of the Republican Party for the 2000 presidential race and ultimately defeated Democratic Vice President Al Gore in a close, disputed election, the legal contests for which ended with the Supreme Court decision Bush v. Gore.[1] In 2004, Bush was elected to a second presidential term, defeating John Kerry, the junior Democratic Senator from Massachusetts.

Why does "W" stands between George and Bush?
W is for War.

George Walker Bush is referred to as George W. Bush so as not to confuse him with his father George Bush.

"W" stands for Walker, and it's there to distinguish between George Bush Jr. (George W. Bush, our current president) and George Bush Sr. (George Herbert Walker Bush, past president)
