As Jeb Bush formally enters the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, allow me to make a humble request of the former Florida governor: Please drop out.

aint gonah happen..into deep
“Welcome to the race, Jebnow drop out.”
First time I ever agreed with Slate.
You and me both

Been saying it since day one....Love the Bush family....Jeb please dont run its a bad idea.
Too late!
I’m all for him running.....as a Democrat, his true home.
Never gonna happen, Bush is the rino’s candidate.
Nice
Good article, his conclusion can’t be argued with.
With Jeb and Rubio in, it only serves to help Cruz win the Florida primary.
And what's more, if he could get 10% in a poll starting out, he's in, even if he could never get 20%.
It's all a little like going to war. August 1914 and all that.
There are heavy wheels grinding slowly but surely and massive vehicles rolling relentlessly and implacably forward.
For what's more massive than a politician's ego?
Jeb should find another vocation. He’s not running to help our country, he’s running to advance his personal interests.
But the biggest and most influential of Olsens blocs are the somewhat conservative voters, who represent 35-40 percent of the primary vote. Somewhat conservatives like even-keeled men with substantial governing experience, yet theyre also resistant to candidates who call for radical change or who seem eager to wage culture wars. This is Bushs sweet spot, in theory. He is, after all, an even-keeled man with substantial governing experience. Bushs most realistic rivals for the affections of somewhat conservatives are Rubio and Walker. That is why Bush intends to destroy Rubio and Walker.
Cruz fans, Bush could be your best friend (though that will probably end up hurting the party in November 2016).
Ditto.
