You want a Bush interview that follows the standard expert-over-his-head storyline where the interviewer's cockiness leads him to assume he can just breeze in and excel but early setbacks show him that the world is not necessarily his oyster and he'll need to buckle down and work hard to win [the big game | get the part in the play | ace the interview | win the advertising account | win the love of the woman in his life]?

Seriously though, while I'd love to see extremely long form interviews, unfortunately I don't think the environment exists any longer where it is remotely feasible. At most an hour of Dateline. Bush doesn't need money (and I think Frost paying Bush for an interview would be a much bigger ethics scandal than it was then).
