"Within a month, the elder Bush had found a job for his son at an inner-city youth program in Houston."

Where is the evidence for this claim? This seems to be one of the claims of contention regarding Bush's records: How - and why - was he working at an inner-city youth program in Houston? Keep in mind that the young Mr. Bush had no training in social work, had previously evinced no desire for social services, and had just participated in a divisive racially charged Senate campaign in Alabama. Furthermore, it is not at all clear how the "job" (elsewhere said to be volunteer work) fits into a career trajectory for the young Mr. Bush. And we are to believe that his father, who wanted him to straighten up his act at this time, picks some job that has little to do with the career trajectory he would have his son follow, and is also seemingly at odds with his son's interests. Stinky like a rotten fish, this little tidbit at the end of the article. Where did this information come from?
