The Bush family is a prominent American family. Along with many members who have been successful bankers and businessmen, across three generations the family includes two U.S. Senators, one Supreme Court Justice, two Governors, one Vice President and two Presidents (three, should Barbara Bush's relation, Franklin Pierce, be included). George Herbert Walker and Barbara Bush have been married for 63 years, holding the record for the longest married presidential couple. Peter Schweizer, author of a biography of the family, has described the Bushes as "the most successful political dynasty in American history." According to some online sources, The Bush family is of primarily English and German descent, in addition to small amounts of Mexican, Welsh, Scottish, Irish, French, Italian, Dutch, Czech, and Belgian.
