WASHINGTON — Amid the celebration surrounding the opening of son George W. Bush's presidential library Thursday, former first lady Barbara Bush brushed aside talk of a Jeb Bush run for the White House in 2016.
Appearing in an interview from Dallas on NBC's "Today" show, Mrs. Bush was asked if she thought that Jeb, the former governor of Florida, should seek the presidency.
"He's by far the best qualified man," Mrs. Bush said, "but no."
"We've had enough Bushes," she said, saying "it's not just four families, or whatever."

In an interview with NBC’s ‘Today” show, Barbara Bush said she believed Jeb, a former Florida governor, was “the best qualified” to seek the Republican presidential nomination, but that he shouldn’t run.
“We’ve had enough Bushes,” Barbara Bush told NBC, adding there are other “people out there” who are qualified. “It’s a great country. There are a lot of great families and it’s not just four families or whatever.”

You have to love her for this one.
and, Mrs. Bush could have added “Besides, it’s Hillary’s turn”....
I often don’t agree with the abortion-loving, Palin-hating Babs...
...but she’s right on this one!
He's by far the best qualified man," Mrs. Bush said, "but no, "We've had enough Bushes,"
Gezzz...What a statement...
The most qualified is sub par. Yay for us.
Yup, remember when Sarah Palin was campaigning for conservatives, old Babs said *Palin should stay up in Wasilla*.
Never forgot that.
Stay out of the Bushes!!!!
I bet she’s sick of ‘em too.
Barbara ALWAYS was the sensible one of the bunch. The lit-luns didn’t call her “Mommy” for no reason.
We've definitely had enough Bushes.
Yep. Just say no to Jeb Clampett Bush!
Yep. Harriet Miers, Dubia Ports. Enough!
I remember her telling everyone to shut up after the election and the voting fraud was so obvious.
