What's with * and the blue dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up?
The focus group must have liked that outfit best, but he wears it so often that it looks like another sign of his insanity.

Do you think his followers are comforted when he doesn't change, even his clothes? Is this a symbolic way of saying that he'll stay the coarse?

6. It is a subliminal message: Blue collar = 'I am one of you'
As opposed to white collar = 'elitist'

bush* works very hard to cover his real roots and look like a populist.

That scene in F9-11 at the swank fundraiser showed the real bush* best: 'the haves and the have mores, or as I like to call you, my base'.

7. Rolled up sleeves are working class style.
Something Bush is only distantly aware of since he never has actually had to work.
