(CNN)—Jeb Bush said in an interview aired Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union" that he believes he'll be in a better position to break away from the rest of the Republican field when he announces his presidential candidacy.
"I think this transition to a candidacy will allow me to be more direct about my advocacy of the leadership skills necessary for the next president to fix a few things," Bush told CNN's Dana Bash in Tallinn, Estonia, on Saturday.
"And as a candidate, contrary to someone who has been listening and learning along the way, I'll offer up alternatives to the path we're on as well, so I'll be more specific on policy," he said.

“The Distance” - Cake
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.
The arena is empty except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he’s driving and striving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.
He’s going the distance.
He’s going for speed.
She’s all alone
In her time of need.
Because he’s racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He’s fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
He’s going the distance.
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
He’s haunted by something he cannot define.
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force.
In his mind, he’s still driving, still making the grade.
She’s hoping in time that her memories will fade.
Cause he’s racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He’s fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he’s striving and driving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.
Cause he’s going the distance.
He’s going for speed.
She’s all alone
In her time of need.
Because he’s racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He’s fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
He’s racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He’s fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
He’s going the distance.
He’s going for speed.
He’s going the distance.
LOL Good Lord.
Copy-and-paste on a phone, or I would have caught that they thought it said wine instead of line. /eye roll
There’s probably no way to beat her.
Bush thinks he’s royalty.
Never even occurred to him that the very idea of an American Royal Family is offensive and unpatriotic.
Goddamned megalomaniac.
I thought he’s already done that by running as a Democrat in an R jersey for the GOP nomination.
Common Core-check
Amnesty-check
Big Government-check
Hey jeb,
F off
Well, adios then. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
We should call the next election, Clinton’s bush. That is all Jeb is.
Not satire huh?
Jebutante
Way to cede the country. Glad General Washington didn’t depend on you.
Delusions of adequacy...
As if there's any difference between the two.
Sure there is. I'm thinking with a big old club like an ogre might have.
“I think this transition to a candidacy will allow me to be more direct about my advocacy of the leadership skills necessary for the next president to fix a few things,”
First, what the hell does that mean? Second if it means what I think he tried to say he aint got any....Or he is gonna endorse someone.....
Yeap, it may take two flushes, but Jeb will break away.
LOL!
“.....the sheeple will go with the name they most recognize.”

If the voters cast their votes based on name recognition, they could very well go with Donald Trump.
The only direction he’s breaking is DOWN.
