Jeb Bush: ‘I’m thinking about running for president’

By Cristina Corbin Published April 23, 2014 FoxNews.com

Jeb Bush said Wednesday he's "thinking about running for president," in his most direct statement yet about a possible 2016 run.

The former Florida governor spoke at a Catholic school benefit in New York Wednesday morning. He previously has said he'll make a decision on whether to run for president before the end of this year, making clear that he was considering the possibility.

But his comments on Wednesday appeared to be more direct. Asked what his "immediate plans" were, he said, according to an attendee: "I'm thinking about running for president."

The answer was met with applause and a standing ovation, after which Bush said: "Can someone call my mother so she can hear this?" the source told FoxNews.com.

I'm thinking of NOT voting for you Jeb. You were good as Florida's governor, but you were not Rick Scott (you were better then Orange skin snake Charlie).

I'm voting for the ticket of Cruz/Palin...

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

There you go thinking again.

[Dagnabitt]

Jawless Jeb - You father was mediocre, your brother was bad. We don't want you. Go away.

Take your creepy son with you.

And he’ll be just off to the left of the conservative circular firing squad running against him in the primary.

I’ve seen this movie before.

Splitting the Tea Party is something that is worthy of more concern.

No! No! No! a thousand times No!

The day before the Anniversary of Bengazi..Jeb Bush presented the "Liberty Medal" to Hillary Clinton, Sept 10, 2013.

Good news! Split the RINO vote. Look, there is going to be some RINO either way, the more the better since it splits vote.

[Pelham]

No..wait.. is it April 1st?

I will never vote Bush again, but a Bush just won a state wide primary victory here in Texas. Of course I did not vote for him, but he won with close to 70%. So if Jeb decides to run he is going to be hard to beat. Who might be able to take on Jeb and win? Scot Walker, Rand Paul and maybe Ted Cruz (if he can find a way around his not a Natural Born Citizen problem). An electorate foolish enough to elect our current president is more then capable of electing another Bush.

1) Who would Bill vote for? I'm thinking Hillary only because he can be the dirty old man around the White house interns when she's not around and he has no job. But I think he likes the Bushes better.

2) If it's Hillary vs Jeb we'll wind up with a bush in the White House either way! (can I say that? I am female! is Hillary really female?)

This would be a bad election, and I don't hate the Bush's but do hate the Clinton's... Still we don't need 1992 again.

I'd vote for Bush which would make absolutely no difference in NY but I will vote and it will be against HER. Still I don't think he'd ever make it out of a primary. I wish I had a decent Senate candidate to vote for. :(

Another annointed , non grass roots candidate will assure another 4 years of liberal fascism. When will the GOP learn?

[Theodore R.]

So how many of the 74 percent of TX “Republicans” who endorsed George P. for land commissioner on March 4, 2014, do you expect to reject George P.’s father?

[Theodore R.]

I’m all for him running and splitting the establishment vote in the primaries.

Have you considered the quality of the Republican primary voters and caucus people? They are easily fooled time and time again.

[Theodore R.]

Barbara doesn’t want Jebbie to run because she is pre-committed to Hillary.

[Perdogg]

stay outta da Bushes!

[cdcdawg]

Governor Walker, I think your country needs you. You need to start getting out there.

The first Bush led to Clinton. The second led to Bacrock Osama. What would Jeb lead to? Stalin?
