In a sign of Jeb Bushs broad Hispanic outreach, his intensely private wife, Columba Bush, slowly started to raise her profile Friday by opening her own Twitter and Instagram accounts.
Columba Bush, using the handle @ColumbaBush, plans to reach out in English and Spanish to various segments of the nations Latino community, which has one of the highest rates of social-media use in the nation.

This is a really important first step. Its beyond dispute that Hispanic voters are more and more important in each election, and we need to capture at least 40 percent of that vote, said Jesse Manzano-Plaza, a former Bush administration staffer and political consultant with Miami Beach-based LSN Communication. For Columba Bush, social media is perfect.

Is she related to Arnolds mistress the one that gave him a son ?
“Yatta, Yatta, yatta”
The announcement of yet another website in the twitter verse is nor a newsworthy event, and won’t usually attract a load of visitors.
I think it’s pretty much over for black people.
No one likes them any more after their rash of shenanigans, and they are not the important demographic group, either. Blacks aborted themselves into a minor group. Hispanics have not made that mistake.
Bye bye.
She's a naturalized citizen.
Obama got 71% of the Latino vote in 2012. They were 10% of the electorate. In 2016 they are likely to be a larger share of the electorate.
So did she give up her Mexican passport and citizenship? And why does she refuse to speak English? And demands her husband and kids speak Spanish at home?
And someone should ask her (in Spanish) whether she and her husband have donated to the Clinton Foundation.
...by getting a booster seat?
And smuggling in another $100,000 diamond necklace from Europe.
Just sayin’ what I know. BTW, I’m not a Jeb fan and it goes wayyy back.
If Jeb would become president and he got into trouble he could just say, no Inglés...no Inglés!
Here’s a place where blacks continue to matter: at the voting booths in national elections.
As long as Blacks vote and remain at least 13% of the electorate, they are a key demographic group for Democrats to be able to win in presidential elections.
Non-white voting groups in 2012 totaled 28% of the total electorate.
In 1972, whites were 87% of all voters. In 2012, whites were 72% of all voters. Obama was able to win the popular vote by 5 million while getting only 39% of the white vote.
Black voters increased by 1.7 million from 2008 to 2012 and blacks voted at a higher rate than whites. 64% of voting eligible whites actually voted while 66% of eligible blacks voted.
Obama got 93% of the black vote, 73% of the Asian vote and 71% of the Latino vote.
dude. srsly?
I’m sure this Mrs. Bush is as nice as the other Mrs. Bushes, but we are tired of Bushes; Clintons; and Obamas....
Our country needs some new, fresh ideas, younger people (which includes senate and congress) so have a nice day Mrs. Bush....

I saw that face in the canned ham case at Kroger today...
