Because the people in the GOP (not ‘us’, but those actually running things) are spoiled rich kids.
You GOPers can’t nominate somebody like Sarah Palin because she’s just an ordinary American. Nope, GOPers insist they must recruit candidates from fancy country clubs and nowhere else. So moosehunters need not apply, since skinning a moose is just plain undignified on the golf course.
You have a very valid point.
I won’t be voting for Jeb.
