This is true, in Ukraine we called imported chicken legs "Bush's drumsticks" (referring to Bush Sr.) This is because legs are not in as much demand in the US, so they would rather export them to countries where they are in demand!

I'm afraid you're mistaken. It's because Bush organized humanitarian help to post-USSR countries in tge early 90s, which risked hunger because of the awful economic conditions.

Hmm. Thinking about it, I mostly don't use drumsticks because for a sauté they're a bit more of a pain to cook vs flatter variants.
