Old Family Scandals May Haunt Jeb Presidential Run
If Jeb Bush decides to run for president, GOP leaders are warning that he may face “hurtful” questions about past family scandals.
In 1999, while he was governor of Florida, his wife, Columba, was fined for declaring only $500 worth of goods to U.S. Customs on her return from Paris, where she actually made close to $20,000 in purchases.
Three years later, his daughter Noelle, was arrested at age 24 for alleged prescription fraud while trying to buy a tranquilizer, Xanax.
In 2005, his son, Jeb Jr., then 21, was arrested in Texas for public intoxication and resisting arrest.
Politico reported Wednesday that, as “ the buzz picks up” about whether George W. Bush’s younger brother will run for the White House, donors are questioning whether he is prepared to face “new questions” about the old scandals.

I am not a Bush fan but since when do we start looking at family.....I thought it was off limit. I remember when they tried to bring up Palin’s family there was outrage on here. Leave the family out of it and I mean all families.
You hear none of that crap about Trump’s kids.
Well the son was also involved in a stalking scandal in Coral Gables as apparently he never learned how to say goodbye.
