Bob Dole endorses Jeb Bush
Politico ^ | 11/11/15 | Eliza Collins

Posted on 11/11/2015 8:59:56 AM PST by conservative98

Former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole has endorsed Jeb Bush for president and will serve as the former Florida governor's National Veterans’ Chairman, according to the campaign.

Dole said that while almost all of the candidates are his friends, he believes Bush is the most qualified.

Jeb has the proven leadership skills and executive experience needed to fix the problems facing our country from the anemic economy to America's weakened standing among world leaders, Dole said in a statement. Jeb's conservative reform agenda and forward looking vision on issues including 4 percent economic growth, defeating ISIS and taking care of our veterans are in stark contrast to Hillary Clinton s strategy to continue the failed policies of the present Administration.

I will do all I can to be helpful to Jeb s campaign, Dole promised.

Jeb could pose in such an ad as the Before picture. Cruz, Trump, Rubio, even Carly will show the After pic.

Former senator Dole is 92 years-old, for cryin' out loud..!

In ill health, he's gaunt, frail, feeble and fragile.....and confined to a wheel chair. With all due respect, I doubt if he's all that up on ANYTHING these days, even with Viagra.

Cynical people around him are using and capitalizing on his name for political endorsement purposes...and shamefully his family permits, or maybe even promotes it, which is a shame.

The GOP establishment is pulling out all the stops.....and stooping pretty low to do so when it furthers its RINO agenda.)

And that should be the final nail in the JEB! coffin.

It’s likely that all that viagra caused hardening in Dole’s upper head.

I agree with your comment about Bob Dole. I too think he’s a decent man, a trait that’s not shared with McCain. But Dole wasn’t a conservative either. He never met a tax he didn’t like. McCain has been plagued with scandal ( the S&L business comes readily to mind), and he’s been irrational ad nausium. Still there is the issue of the GOPe’s “it’s my turn philosophy” and the fact that they don’t give a $hit about the voters wishes and keeping their “promises.” Dole was a party to all of that.

Maybe Jeb can go back in time and get Reagan and George Washington to endorse.

Yes, FR is a fantastic place.

I do have my moments, but with the great wits here they are few and far between.
Therefore I cherish the ones I get.
Thank you.
