Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush announced Tuesday he will actively explore a campaign for president, an early move that could pre-empt some other Republicans with White House aspirations in the bidding for big donations and public support.
In a holiday message posted on his Facebook page, the son and brother of Republican presidents said he had discussed the future of our nation and his own prospective bid for the White House with members of his family over the Thanksgiving holiday.

While he’s doing that, guess I’ll actively explore things I can do other than voting in ‘16.
Bush / Clinton 2016!
Well shoot fire, if ol’ Jeb can run then by all means let’s get Mittens and McLame back in the primaries too! It’ll be like a walk down memory lane!
im actively exploring ANYONE but Bush!

Well if you “actively win” the GOP nomination, you can “actively expect” I will not vote for you.
Please Jeb,
Go jump off a bridge.
Read my lips -—> No New Bushes!
I would take just about any Bush over any Clinton, but I am damn tired of both “dynasties.”
Lets get someone with conservative free market ideas and disdain for big government.
Explore all you want,but please discover that we don’t want you to run..unless you chose to run as a RAT..that would be closer to your core beliefs.
If either he or Christy end up the candidate then I’ll kick up my heels and NOT vote, exactly as I didn’t vote for Romney.
I wish he’d go “actively explore” Siberia, or the mountains of Peru, or anywhere other than North America.
“Bush / Clinton 2016!”
Clinton too conservative.
You can always write-in your own name.
How about
Hillary/NJFatboy?
I think the media would have a bi-partisan-gasm...
They probably would.
i think all bushes and clintons need to be airlifted to a faraway island and just left there with no way to get off.
I don’t recall an instance of an “Exploratory Committee” leading to a non-candidacy.
He’s in, and he’s running. His last name alone makes him damaged goods. His liberalism makes him a non-starter for me.
Right now, I think Scott Walker or Rand Paul are the best bet for the Republicans, though I tend to dislike most all politicians.
I love Cruz the most, but he won’t be able to win, because he’s not attractive in appearance. I know that’s shallow as hell, but that’s the nature of our stupid electorate these days.
