JEB!s foreign policy team.

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush will announce his foreign policy vision in a speech Wednesday in Chicago. Accompanying that speech is a rollout of a slate of experts who will help guide the candidate on foreign policy issues.
If Bush's goal is to present himself as his "own man," that list of advisers undermines the point somewhat: 19 of the 21 people on it worked in the administrations of his father or brother. We've identified the roles each played in the past three Republican administrations, divvying them up as needed in the following Venn diagram.

Religion of peace again? We already heard that one, Lil Shrub. You need to lie this time : )
Any Republican will tap the same pool of Republican foreign policy experts, just as any Democrat will tap the same pool of Democrat foreign policy experts.
” 19 of the 21 people on it worked in the administrations of his father or brother.”
No more Bushes.
No more Clintons.
And no more “Community Organizers”
“19 of the 21 people on it worked in the administrations of his father or brother.”
I wouldn’t advertise that if I were Jebbie.
Where’s Saudi-lover, James Baker in all this?
“Where’s Saudi-lover, James Baker in all this?”
Probably emptying his drool cup, he’s 84!
On balance, I was satisfied with the presidency of George Dubya, but am not eager to experience an even more liberal phase of Bush family “conservaliberalism?”

Jeb Bush: ‘I am my own man’
“I also have been lucky to have a father and a brother who both have shaped America’s foreign policy from the Oval Office,” Bush will say at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, according to his prepared remarks.
“I recognize that as a result, my views will often be held up in comparison to theirs — sometimes in contrast to theirs,” Bush continues. “I love my father and my brother. I admire their service to the nation and the difficult decisions they had to make.
“But I am my own man — and my views are shaped by my own thinking and own experiences,” he will say.
“Each president learns from those who came before — their principles ... their adjustments,” says Bush. “One thing we know is this: Every president inherits a changing world ... and changing circumstances.”

“Where’s Saudi-lover, James Baker in all this?”
(Jeb) Bush is casting a wide net for advice on national security. An aide provided to Reuters a diverse list of 20 diplomatic and national security veterans who will be providing informal advice to Bush in the coming months.
Many of them are from past Republican administrations, including those of his father and brother as well as that of Ronald Reagan.
The list includes people representing a wide spectrum of ideological views in the Republican Party, from the pragmatic to the hawkish. It includes James Baker, known for his pragmatism in key roles during the Reagan and George H.W. Bush presidencies, and former World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz, a hawk as deputy defense secretary who was an architect of George W. Bush’s Iraq policy.
Among others are two former secretaries of Homeland Security, Tom Ridge and Michael Chertoff, former national security adviser Stephen Hadley and a deputy national security adviser, Meghan O’Sullivan, as well as two former CIA directors, Porter Goss and Michael Hayden.
Right. But the dems will generally pick someone whose policies are antithetical to liberty and freedom and U.S. sovereignty while the pubs will pick someone who... Uh, wait. Sorry, wrong time line.
Baker is a paid Saudi agent.
Chertoff, as in RapiScan (TSA x-ray equipment) fortune?
They've got some guy named "Otto Reich"..........????????????
Jeb’s big foreign policy vision is to invite everyone over to America, no strings attached, citizenship is fast and free.
Please read. I heard this on the radio in Phoenix last night too.
