Jeb Bush: ‘I’m thinking about running for president’

By Cristina Corbin Published April 23, 2014 FoxNews.com

Jeb Bush said Wednesday he's "thinking about running for president," in his most direct statement yet about a possible 2016 run.

The former Florida governor spoke at a Catholic school benefit in New York Wednesday morning. He previously has said he'll make a decision on whether to run for president before the end of this year, making clear that he was considering the possibility.

But his comments on Wednesday appeared to be more direct. Asked what his "immediate plans" were, he said, according to an attendee: "I'm thinking about running for president."

The answer was met with applause and a standing ovation, after which Bush said: "Can someone call my mother so she can hear this?" the source told FoxNews.com.

I think the Hilderbeast will not want to be his running mate since she is going to be running for _resident. Maybe vice_resident is in the cards for him....

No guys, we need him to run! Along with Romney and several other RINOs! Think back to the last 2 primaries; in both cases there was one RINO and a bunch of conservatives. In both cases the RINO got the nomination and lost to El-Presidente BECAUSE he was a RINO. We need to reverse the equation this time, we need lots of RINOs beating each other up and splitting the establishment vote and one strong conservative to skate to the nomination.


It would be GREAT if we had a process for nominating ONE conservative to run in the Republican presidential primary. Even if the RINOs ran only Bush or only Christie I think we’d win it—provided the Demoviks were blocked from voting in our primary. Of course, the RINOs would be only too happy to let them in.

Oh, hell, no!

Anyone remember what happened before 9/11, with that massive expansion of the Medicare pills for grandma scam? Bush II was kind of a RINO, but everyone forgot that after 9/11 took our eyes off the ball.

Well, Jeb is most definitely a RINO, with his proclaiming that all of the fence jumpers are doing it for love of their families.

What scares me the most is that he’ll probably win the nomination because no one wants to be on the hot seat anymore. With this country so near to implosion and chaos, who wants to be Nero? Anyone who wants the job is too crazy to do it.

Much worse than Mitt Romney, marginally better than Chris Christie.

That’s ironic, because I’ve already thought about not voting for him.

Yes - I sort of agree. Last time we split the conservative vote in primaries.

Think about it all you want, Jeb.

Just don’t do it.

“Conservatives need to coalesce, EARLY, around a common acceptable candidate. The failure to do so is what keeps killing us in the primaries. “

Wrong. The problem is your candidates stink. In 2012, your guys were the 999 guy, Newt who carries more baggage than a 747, Sarah who refused to run, Rick “I can barely remember my name” Perry, Michelle Bachman and Rick Santorum.

Get Ted Cruz to run and come in second in 2016 and he is your man in 2020.

“Stocking up with lots of popcorn, just waiting till the purge begins”

We have not had a purge in a long time. I don’t think we will have one until Sept of 2015. By then, the candidates will have announced, the early polls will have some meaning.

Most likely Palin and Cruz will not be running. Then there will be the mother of all purges as a Rino will be leading a pack of marginal conservatives.

There is not a single congressman dem or repub or Senator or presidential candidate that will criticize that Medicare expansion because it works, it is efficient, and it is actually under budget.

So the latest RINO Bush will fight it out for the GOP nomination with Spanky the RINO Christie and probably Willard the RINO Romney. Karl Rove and his band of RINOs will elect Hillary Clinton as president.

Unless Scott Walker is nominated, with Suzana Martinez or Ted Cruz as his running mate, republicans are toast once again.

The low-information voters/fraud experts will see to it that the crooked 70 year old battle-axe closet dyke Clinton is elected. Same morons that voted for the Kenyan will vote for her.
