Someone please draft Haley Barbour back into the race...
I'd vote for Jeb, but I'd prefer Haley.

Jeb is easily better than Mitt and Newt, IMHO.
Terry probably doesn't agree.

"I will never vote for another Bush.", Never say never and remember, 'words mean things'.
If it comes down to Hildabeast or Biden v. Bush...you'll vote for a Bush!

It’s a good piece and will hopefully enlighten the dialogue on the Repub side, but I agree with everyone else that we don’t need a dynasty.

Jeb Bush is just more proof that they have never understood conservatives. The understand Conservatives perfectly, they just don't like them very much. All those gun loving Bible thumping red necks just don't fit into their world very well. They want you to vote for them, but they don't want you to get uppity, and think that you can cross the tracks.

The problem is, it sounds great and all... but when it comes down to it, are the Bush-types really going to get down in the trenches against massive government and over-regulation, in the larger scheme of things?
We've seen this movie before with Bush 43 (the supposed "MBA President") who started this government-crony capitalist bailout train wreck.

RINOS are a dime a dozen these days.
How about another REAL conservative toss their hat in the ring?

I’m looking at the content, not the author. I don’t think he would have a chance if he actually ran. Still I like the idea of the “right to rise”. Hope some of the primary candidates can embrace it.

Agreed, but only a few people are actually running. Jeb is easily better than Mitt and Newt, IMHO.
Only if you think a committed, hard-core globalist and Amnesty Loving Elitest Republican is better than Newt.

If it comes down to Hildabeast or Biden v. Bush...you'll vote for a Bush!
Not me or my family.
Our minimum set of litmus tests for a candidate includes the following:
1. Pro-Life
2. Anti-Gay agenda
3. Limited Government
4. Complete Anti-Illegal Immigration stance.
5. Strong support for the Military.
Jeb fails on 2 of the 5, #3 and #4.
We'll not compromise anymore. We're done.
I won't sit out the election if I can't find an appropriate GOP POTUS candidate, but I will vote 3rd party because I know I can find an honorable candidate that actually is a conservative in the American Independent party.
