    George Herbert Walker Bush.

    A heavy youngster, Bush was nicknamed "Fatty McGee McGaw" by his father, Prescott Bush, a businessman and U.S. senator. Bush grew up in a wealthy family and was driven to school by the family chauffeur. A baseball fan who would later play for Yale University, Bush often went with his father to Yankee Stadium to watch his boyhood idol, Lou Gehrig. His favorite memories of childhood are the summer vacations in Kennebunkport, Maine, also a favorite vacation spot during his presidency.
