If you are not able to view the George Bush public service announcement, here is what he said:

"Hi, I'm one of two million Americans who have a type of irregular heartbeat called Atrial Fibrillation, or AF. Left untreated, AF can lead to a stroke, the third leading cause of death in this country. In fact, this year 80,000 Americans will have a stroke because of AF. Luckily, it can be detected and treated. And the first step to seeing if you might have AF could be an easy self-exam. You can learn a simple way to check your pulse to see if you have an irregular heartbeat, and what to do about it. If you're over 50, it means taking 60 seconds to check your pulse twice a year. Strokes can be prevented. Learn the warning signs and how to reduce your risk. Talk to your doctor. "
