US President praises Howard's son for help By Michael Gordon November 22, 2004
US President George Bush sang the praises of the Prime Minister's younger son, Richard, when he met Mr Howard at the APEC summit yesterday.
Richard, 24, a law graduate, worked as a volunteer at the Bush campaign headquarters in Washington, giving his father regular updates on how it was going.
A coy Mr Howard, who was applauded on his own re-election by several Asia-Pacific region leaders yesterday, declined to elaborate on the President's remarks, saying only: "We very briefly talked about the result of the elections in the two countries and he was kind enough to make some reference to my son."
