I understand a lot of people don't like George W. Bush for very legitimate reasons (he was deeply flawed & not up to the job most days) ... but you have to admit that he really seemed to have cared about people, individually. 
He would have made a fine youth minister, or small business ower, because I believe in his heart, he cared about people he met.
My wife met him during his years as TX Gov. when she was donating blood, and he spent some time joking with her, thanking her, being kind.

If I'm being critical: he was the Peter Principle, applied to the US Presidency. He was barely an adequate Gov, and he failed his way upwards.
But, again, I think he had heart and compassion, at least for the people he met in person.

He was a good consoler. Maybe he was a terrible politician and Commander in Chief. For some of what happened in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, I was and am glad he was President at the time,
For a brief moment, his ability to console was used for great good.
