The talk has already started about a possible 2016 presidential bid by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, but before that happens friends say hell be busy rebuilding his personal wealth and restoring his familys relationship with the Republican Party.
If he decides to seek the GOP nomination, it could put a damper on any plans by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio to run in four years, according to The New York Times.
After this years loss to President Barack Obama, Republicans are looking for a candidate who can appeal to a different voter demographic thats no longer dominated by white men and women. Many Republicans believe that Bush fits the bill as someone who can attract Hispanics and other minorities without sacrificing his conservative values.

He will not get my vote.
Absolutely no more RINO votes. They’ve had their chances.
No more career politicians for me.

Absolutely no more RINO votes. Theyve had their chances.I said that after McCain, but I still voted for Romney. I guess that is what they are counting on happening.

Yup, will lose my vote. Great idea, lets try to out-democrat the democrats. Why they’re called the stupid party.
To: AlmaKing
No more Bushes, and no more Clintons. We need some fresh faces in the running. The GOPE is busy at this moment planning for the next RINO run. Lord, help us.

Obviously, the RNC/GOP-e or whomever is pushing Jeb doesn't want to win any more presidential elections. They've lost their nose-holding-required-to-vote base this last election and it's looking like it might take yet another election for them either to figure it out or to believe it.

The ONE thing Jessie Jackson (or was it Sharpton?) ever got right:
“KEEP OUT DA BUSHES!!!!”
Of course this isn’t the first time that balloon has been floated. ‘They’ started pimping him out for the job before the first exit poll came out on election day.
To: Olog-hai
Great idea GOP! Another Bush! That's just what the country longs for. That's right up there with Bob Dole and John McCain. Well maybe not quite as good. You can be sure that he won't be getting any of those tired old white men and women votes. He won't get the black or hispanic vote either.

Get real people! There are only less than 1000 Gope’rs.
And then there are 20+ million primary voters who will decide
the next nominee, not the GOPe’s.

Jeb Bush refused to rescue Terri Schiavo, allowing her to be murdered in broad daylight. I will never forgive or forget.
