KING: You've lived the life of a first lady of a state and a federal government. Would you want it for one of your daughters?

L. BUSH: Sure, if they wanted it. I mean, the fact is, I'm the first lady because I happened to marry someone who ran for president and won. And I didn't run for the office. I'm here because he ran, and he wanted to run. As he said, you know, don't feel sorry for him; he's a volunteer; he volunteered for this job, and he ran for the office. I think that I have an unbelievable opportunity to see our country at its very, very best. And do I get to see it at its worst? Sure. But overwhelmingly 1, every opportunity that I have strengthens and encourages me because of the way the American people are.

KING: So you wouldn't mind it if one of them had the same path?

L. BUSH: Sure, no, I mean, why did you not suggest that one of them might run themselves?

(LAUGHTER)

KING: How about running? Would that bother you?

L. BUSH: No, not at all. If they were interested in that, I think that'd be terrific 2.

KING: Are you going to get involved in the 2006 elections?

L. BUSH: Sure.

KING: Are you going to campaign for...

L. BUSH: Sure, absolutely, I'll be campaigning for our candidates. I've already done some and have some more scheduled.

KING: When I first met you there in Austin, you were not a fan of running for office. That was not your ball game.

L. BUSH: Well, I know how hard it is. I do know how hard it is. And I had -- George and I had an advantage that most people, except John Quincy Adams, haven't had, and that is we had seen someone we loved in this job, and we knew what it was like, and we knew what we were getting into.

Certainly, we didn't know how extremely difficult and challenging these years would be for our country because of September 11th. But on the other hand, we knew to expect the unexpected, that that's what happens. That's what has happened to every president...

(CROSSTALK)

KING: So you like getting out now?

L. BUSH: So I do like it. I like it a lot. It's fun.

KING: Do you have a favorite? L. BUSH: A favorite state or...

KING: A favorite presidential...

L. BUSH: ... or a favorite president?

KING: Office, for the office in 2008.

L. BUSH: Oh, in 2008. I thought you were talking about the 2006 elections.

KING: Those governors and senators 3 and congressmen, I don't know.

L. BUSH: I'll be campaigning for them, and then we'll see what happens in 2008.
