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.

And knowing the RINO party they’ll probably nominate this LEFTIST and Hitlery will waltz right into the White House as a result.

To add, a big part of the problem is that with several Conservatives in the race, and only one or two RINO/GOPe ones, other Conservatives who would be better nominees are dissuaded from running. They can figure out that the odds just aren’t in their favor and decide to sit it out.

My fear is that 2016 will come down to Bush, Cruz and Paul, with a very good “consensus Conservative” like Scott Walker either sitting it out or not getting enough traction to go anywhere. Not an endorsement of Walker, just an acknowlegement that it would be good to have him in the primary mix as a viable contender.

Look he was a very good Florida Governor, perhaps the best of our governors. He did a lot for gun rights and he was pretty good for education. And business. But he has since gotten considerably more liberal. He is a major proponent for "Common Core" and that, folks is communism on the hoof.

A long time ago, I would have said he was more conservative than either his older brother or his father. Now, he's started to jump in with the globalists his father is so tight with... The puppetmasters. The Council on Foreign Relations. Bilderberg. Trilateralists.

Sure thing, Jeb! Burnish your resume like Dole, McCain & Romney. Be the latest in a long line of rudderless GOPe nominees to get your butt kicked by the Democrats.

Or he could be like the other Bushes who have 100 percent wins on becoming President. Not bad odds. I want Scott Walker, but I wanted Santorum last time, so I am used to having to settle for the worst candidate. At this time, everyone was saying to Romney, “Don’t run....you’ll lose”....as soon as he became the nominee, he became St. Romney and God forbid you bashed him. It was a low point here.

If he’s nominated, it’ll give me an opportunity to not vote for him.
