He was picked to be the “Leader of the Free World”. For eight years.

But on Wednesday he was not picked to serve as a juror for a court case in Dallas, Texas.

No reasons were given publicly as to why (it’s against the law), but it probably had something to do with the fact that he was the former president of the United States and is one of the most famous people on the planet and has a Secret Service detail and the other jurors would be too focused on getting the perfect Instagram selfie with him and disregard the details of the case, etc. etc.

The old POTUS’s spokesman, Freddy Ford, confirmed Dubya’s appearance at the courthouse.

According to the Associated Press, one of the jurors — Sheri Coleman — told The Dallas Morning News that Bush was “very personable, very friendly.”
