Jeb Bush Says He Hopes He Would Be A Good 2016 GOP Candidate December 14, 2014 Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in a television interview Sunday said a decision is coming soon on whether or not he is going to run for president -- adding that he hopes he would be a good candidate -- while declaring the need to fix a “broken immigration system” in the U.S.

“I have no clue if I’d be a good candidate, I hope I would be,” the Republican told ABC's Miami affiliate WPLG-TV. “I think I could serve well as president, to be honest with you. But I don’t know that either. I think you learn these things as you go along.”

Bush said he was in the process of writing an e-book about his time as governor and that it would come out in the spring. At about the same time, he will make public about 250,000 emails from his time in office, in an effort to promote transparency and to "let people make up their mind."

Time for a photo shop. If I knew how to do it. I’m thinking two dogs with Bush’s and Hillary’s faces. Of course, Hillary would be the one on top.

I’m getting sick and tired of this phrase. IT’S NOT BROKEN!!!!! Just enforce existing law and we’ll be OK.

Actually, it is broken. You don’t seem to be aware of how much Obama has changed it (through executive orders) since he took over.

It doesn’t work, partly because Obama took away from the legal Latin American quota to offer it to ...of course....persons from Muslim countries. He issued this literally the day after his inauguration. I guess he’d rather have terrorists than lawn guys.

We do need a serious overhaul, but not with Obama in charge.

The laws are not enforced and if you removed our social programs from the reach of illegals and their anchor babies they would mostly go home.
If they could on their own maintain a 125% over poverty line life here in America there would be no trouble since they would not be on social programs.
Since most illegals are second grade drop outs with at least some connections to family that grow pot or other drugs, I don't know why we need them.
Their kids are here and though I can't afford a second child, all these illegals on the dole can get their precious anchor children birthed an cared for free in CA and elsewhere.
They don't declare their income, work gray markets. Often they take advantage of the child tax credit on the tax forms to get up to $25,000 tax returns without earning a dime.
Their kids cost each of us 15k a year to educate because they are not primary English speakers. So if they have 4 kids we in CA pay 60k a year for their education. So what would a family like that do for us to pay that 60k from our tax base?
I'm surprised we haven't seen private citizens acting out from all this. They are getting the brunt of this in the market place and if you need a service industry job till you get another one you are aced out for not being Hispanic or speaking Spanish. It's crazy!

Last week he said he didn’t know if he would be a good candidate or not. This new quote is just to get that quote from last week off the front page.

“I have no clue if I’d be a good candidate, I hope I would be”

Sounding real confident there, Jeb. /s

I don't even know where to start with this putz. At the very least, I can't believe he's even thinking about a run for the White House, considering the level of Bush Fatigue still prevalent in America. I mean, who in hell is advising this guy?

WE DON’T NEED GOOD...WE NEED SOME ONE WHO WILL FIGHT TOOTH AND NAIL AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON, AND THERE ARE NO BUSH’ES THAT WILL DO THAT...

WE HAVE ENOUGH WIMPS IN THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS WE DON’T NEED JEB BUSH...AND IF HE IS STUFFED DOWN OUR THROATS WE NEED TO MARCH ON WASHINGTON AND TELL THEM..

ENOUGH WE WANT TO MAKE OUR OWN CHOICE.
