Historical NotesThis campaign button is part of a larger political collection collected by Dorothy Larson. This is a George W. Bush campaign button from the 2004 presidential election. Bush was running for his second term with Dick Cheney against John Kerry and his running mate John Edwards; Bush won his second term. The donor Denis Attenburger's mother-in-law, Dorothy Larson, was a delegate for the State of Pennsylvania at the Republican National Convention in 1976, 1980, and 1984. She supported numerous Republican candidates and causes, which are reflected in the various pins and campaign materials she collected.
