Romney will prove to be a great president: Bush

'There's no doubt in our minds that Romney will be a great president. He's a good man'

A day after being nominated as Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney received praise from former President George W Bush, who expressed belief that the former Massachusetts Governor will prove to be a great president.

"Dad (George H W Bush) and I both know what it takes to be President. And there's no doubt in our minds that Mitt Romney will be a great president. He's a good man," the junior Bush said in video message during the ongoing party convention in Tampa, Florida.

"I think Ann Romney will be great. And I think Mitt Romney will do a fabulous job," said Barbara Bush, the former US First Lady as she also appeared in the message along with her daughter-in-law Laura Bush, also the former First Lady.

Recalling old memories, George W Bush told the audience how he and his father revered and treated the White House, the presidency and the Oval Office.
