There's a reason Florida is one of the most desired places to live: it's Jeb Bush.
There is a reason that Florida is a strong Republican-controlled state: Jeb Bush.
There is even a reason Marco Rubio is running for president today: Yep, Jeb again. !

We need foreign press like the Guardian or Canadian press our Press is politicized. Our government makes up stats.
Noticed 9 of 10 times, 3 months later job gains are revised down.
I wish at least our finance magazines and newpapers like the WSJ or IBD would tackle the task of vetting the BLS numbers.
Or let have business schools like Wharton study the validity of the unemployment stats.
We all know when you cannot find a job and no longer can collect UE insurance your considered not in the workforce but not considered looking for work. So if your not working how do you live without money?
Maybe we should have a welfare roll additions number and an SSI additions number. People must be going for public assistance. This is not a rosy scenario for folks to be in, you can lose your house, savings, and car.

Christopher Ruddy is well known for his praise and support of the Clintons. Since the Clintons have become so close to the Bush family it seems natural he would also praise a Bush. Haven’t read Newsmax since he gushed over William the zipper years ago.

We have given Yeb! a second look: one coming and one going. The “going” view is his best profile.

An essential component of being the President is being able to inspire. Governor's don't get the TV time for that to be essential, but Presidents do. Absent that, you will never be able to rally enough popular support to make needed changes.
Even if he was right on all the issues, that conspicuous negative charisma would do him in. And he's so incredibly awkward on TV it would really hurt his chances to win in the general election.

I looked at Bush again and here's what he said to me:
"Pease clap for me...I mean seriously, if my 90 year old mom asks, will you please cap for me?
"Because you know that our campaign we'll take care of you with free stuff if will jus please clap for me..
"And if that is not enough...I have turtles in my pocket...I mean, I am the only candidate for President of the United States who has turtles in his pocket."

I’d say he deserves a kick in the a** and a toss over the border.

2015-11-05 : Free Republic's Patton@Bastogne's Bold Political Predictions
(1) Yeb Bush will make a good political campaign decision "intelligently" REFUSE to exit the 2016 GOP Presidential Race until he is DEFEATED in the 2016 March 15 Florida Primary. Yeb Bush's political "ace in the hole" is the hopelessly corrupt Florida Republican Party ... the ones who redistricted the great Allen West out-of-office.
(2) Meanwhile ... Dr. Ben Carson will be polling "single digits" by Christmas 2015 ... at which point he'll endorse (suprise, surprise) Yeb Bush ...
(3) Marco "Amnesty" Rubio (lavishly funded by Yeb Bush's former donors) ... will place FOURTH in Iowa (abandoned by the Tea Party Evangelical Christians for being a greedy bad-faced liar) and FOURTH in the Florida Primary (in a "blood-sport" death-match with Yeb Bush)
4) Ted Cruz SHOCKS the "Washington Establishment Cartel" with a three-percent Florida victory over Donald Trump ...
===================================
Tonight (Thursday, 2015-11-05) it was revealed that Dr. Ben Carson supports Transgendered Bathrooms (political suicide for his Evangelical Christian base) ...
... and Dr. Ben Carson has "lied" about the names of guys he supposedly beat-up in high school
... which, when combined with the "ridiculous" Pyramid Theory statements, is beginning to make Herman Cain (2012) and John Edwards (2008) look like Einstein and Gen. George Patton Jr.
===================================
"Anything" can happen in a "New York Minute" in American politics.
Just ask Machiavelli, Abraham Lincoln, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, Vince Foster, Gary Hart, Buddy Holly, U.S. Senators Hale Boggs, Ted Stevens, and Paul Wellstone, Herman Cain ...
and Napoleon at Waterloo (who was winning the battle, and Wellington admitting DEFEAT, as late as 5:00 PM in the afternoon).
===================================
Ninety-eight (98) GOP Convention delegates are at stake in Florida's "mas mucho rigged" state Presidential Primary (Winner take All).
That makes it more convenient for Yeb's GOPe Chamber of Commerce Political Whores (aka the Florida Republican Party) to hand Yeb 98 convention delegates on a silver platter.
Yeb Bush has absolutely NOTHING to lose by staying in the presidential race (anything can happen).
Is it a longshot ? Absolutely.
Has Karl Rove already planned for this scenario ? Absolutely.
Will Dr. Ben Carson endorse Yeb Bush when the good doctor is "finished" ? Absolutely.
As a romantic interest once told me ... "It's All About the Money" ... perfectly applicable to Yeb Bush, Ben Carson, and Karl Rove.
