It means recruiting candidates that look like the population we’re trying to attract to our cause.
More Affirmative Action candidates like Obama, is that what you want?
Jeb might have been better than George, who knows?
In any case, there’s no chance that he could get elected now, so the question is purely theoretical.
He should have told his brother that in 2000.
Dog-eared for Monday reading.
I’m guessing Jeb’s responding to the pundits and elites in the GOP who are trying to convince Republicans that it was the conservative Sarah Palin who ruined John McCain’s chances to become President. Those ‘fiscal conservatives’ believe that if they could just unload all those silly ‘social (religious) conservatives, that they’d draw all those moderate and independent voters everyone was talking about during the campaign.
Tell your brother and Dad!
The Bush family destroyed Reaganism.
Screw em.
Quit now Jeb and join the democraps, that would go a long way towards achieving the anti democrap lite catagory.
I wonder if he's gotten around yet to reading and understanding Article One, Section Two of his state's constitution, that little ol' document he swore to uphold and defend.
SECTION 2. Basic rights.--All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life and liberty, to pursue happiness, to be rewarded for industry, and to acquire, possess and protect property; except that the ownership, inheritance, disposition and possession of real property by aliens ineligible for citizenship may be regulated or prohibited by law. No person shall be deprived of any right because of race, religion, national origin, or physical disability.
“Democrat-Lite?”
Good grief!
GHWB was GOP lite,
and GWB ... less filling.
“Jeb Bush to GOP: Don’t Become ‘Democrat-Lite’”
You know Jeb, you are correct but thanks in large part to your brother, too little too late buddy.
JEB! was one helluva gov.
George Bush I almost destroys the Republican Party by violating his no-new-taxes pledge.
George Bush II throws away a golden opportunity to turn the country back to Constitutional government, runs up the biggest deficits ever, and lets illegal hordes of aliens run rampant throughout the country, maybe this time really destroying the Republican party.
Jeb, you might be OK, but I’d have to be head-lite to vote for another Bush.
Talk about being on irony alert.
Looks to me like he’s trying to set himself up for a leadership position some time down the road. Two Bush administrations have been more than enough, thank you very much.
Hey Jeb, tell it to your damned brother Mr. “compassionate conservative”.
Sorry Jeb. I will never, ever vote for another Bush. If you run, I will do everything I can to make sure you lose. The Bush dynasty is done as far as I am concerned.
You’d best just go fishing up there in KennedyBunkMatePort with Poppy and Dubya.
bmwcyle to Jeb - tell your f’in brother that (It would have been nice 8 years ago).
