Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush will make a decision on whether he’ll enter the 2016 presidential race by the end of this year, he said during an interview on Fox News Channel Sunday during the 25th anniversary celebration of his father’s presidency in College Station, Texas.

He said in the Fox News interview that illegal immigration is, for many people, an effort to provide for their families, and “not a felony.”
“It’s an act of love. It’s an act of commitment to your family,” Bush said. “I honestly think that that is a different kind of crime. There should be a price paid, but it shouldn’t rile people up that people are actually coming to this country to provide for their families.”
Recent polling shows that the Florida Republican would be a formidable candidate: In a CBS News/New York Times poll conducted in February, 41 percent of Republicans said they would like to see Bush run, edging out Sen. Rand Paul (39%), Sen. Marco Rubio (32%), New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (31%) and Sen. Ted Cruz (24%).

Do unto others before they do unto you.Especially with these dynasty family politicians.
Jeb Bush. Another on the list of people I won’t vote for under any circumstances.
Why? What stake does the establishment have in this family of mediocre leaders?
No. The only people who gave us Obama are those who actively voted for him.
And the GOP-e, that knew backing that loser, Romney, would guarantee a second term for Obama.
I am pretty certain Romney will run. It is in his blood, it is all that he knows.
I think the establishment folks honestly thought Romney would win.
Well they are extremely stupid, in that case.
NO! NO! A THOUSAND TIMES NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never in a million billion years.
Maybe we need to encourage Romney and Jeb to both enter the race.
Just saying.
:D
Of course you won't, you're one of the 4 million who would rather take their ball and go home........
So stop crying about Obama because your attitude will likely give us Hillary.....And you're OK with that?
Gotta love you purists, you'd probably condemn Jesus for feeding the masses and equate it to his support of the welfare system...........LOL!
Not a dime’s worth of difference between Jeb and Hillary.
I would vote for Jeb Bush. He isn't my first choice, but I think he would be better than most.
And throw Huckster and Fatso Christie into the mix.
Criminal to judge, don’t prosecute me I committed an act of love!!!
Well, yeh. See, I think that’s the answer to a lot of what government does - it’s not all part of some ongoing evil plot or even a series of plots. The people in power are just dumb. And their actions constantly back up that hypothesis.
I don’t think the GOPe really wants to win...they want their perks with none of the responsibility, they prefer the status quo.
I like it. They can face off UFC style in a pay-per-view event called “The Circle of Suck”.
