I honestly hope it isn't news to you that a political canidate used a speech written by someone else.  So what is was done by a former Bush speech writer? Speech writer is a job, you often work for many different people. Most canidates have more than one speech writer.

Here is a short list of Obama speech writers:
Jon Favreau....happens to be a 26 year old white guy
Theodore Sorenson ...also worked for Kennedy

I am sure McCain used one as well, and no doubt Biden did.

Sure some canidates write SOME of their own speeches, and if there were more time, more probably would. I think I remember reading that Obama did write his 1994 DNC speech.
