Bush father, son want Jeb Bush run for White House
Associated Press ^ | Nov 11, 2014 4:14 PM EST | Michael Graczyk

Former President George W. Bush said he and his father believe Jeb Bush should run for president but ultimately the former Florida governor must make a decision regardless of any pressure from the family.

“I can tell you I can speak for 41,” Bush said, referring to the 41st President George H.W. Bush during the official launch of the 43rd president’s book at his dad’s presidential library center at Texas A&M University. “He ought to run for president. He would make a great president.”

“We can pressure him all we want, but it’s not going to matter. … You can’t pressure somebody on such an important decision. It’s not going to cause him to think positively or negatively if we all continue to harass him. Only he can decide.” …

And he gave it to her on the one year anniversary of Benghazi. Can you imagine if one of those 4 dead was a brother, father or son of yours and this piece of rat slime Jeb is giving the bitch who allowed them to die a freakin' medal of all things? Just absolutely the worst kind of disrespect and look at the smug look on her face sitting down, and look at this one, actually applauding herself.

"Everyone applaud for me! Aren't I so wonderful?"

Let that piece of crap run for the president of the Bush family, NOT the president of anything else.

Hey Jeb, just go away. And bring the whole Clinton clan with you. No dynasties!

What’s with these people? Do they believe they have automatic rights to be the leader of the nation?

Enough with the whole dynasty thing.

2 vote for...
2M votes against.

Since this IS the Bush Family and they never take advice from anyone other than their inner circle, I expect Jeb to run.
...and get his head handed to him in 2016 against any RAT.

I was listening to Fox News this morning about GWB’s book.
They are best friends with the Clintons?
Fools!

Oh I don’t think so...the media’s playing Jeb and the Bush’s like they did Palin’s potential run. I say no thank you...enough of the Bush’s already. But more so he can’t win!

New York Times facilitating Jeb’s run by redeeming W—big story on how there really were WMD in Iraq. Only after the election of course. Didn’t believe us until they wanted to.

No, not for anything, no moderates, no more dynasties.

A dynasty is a line of rulers from the same family.

And, we know already how the Bushes govern.
