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.

Like we used to tell the recruiting sergeant when he gave us our reenlistment talks, “Thought about it, laughed about it, forgot about it.”

The only winners will be Jeb’s GOP-e consultants, and Hillary.

“And thousands of “no matter what’ disciples will run to the polls and pull the lever, then come here and bitch for the following 4 years how bad he is with no shame whatsoever.”

You forget the second part of that: They will get on here and bitch at us saying we voted for (insert democrat winner name here) because we DIDN’T vote for their liberal Repuke candidate.

I have taken a ton of flack for doing a write in rather than vote for Romney. So I know of what I speak.

..thinking about it?

The perfect North American Union candidate.

We'll see if the American voter is sick of it's fling with Marxism and if they will return to the New World Order--same product, different label...

No guys, we need him to run! Along with Romney and several other RINOs! Think back to the last 2 primaries; in both cases there was one RINO and a bunch of conservatives. In both cases the RINO got the nomination and lost to El-Presidente BECAUSE he was a RINO. We need to reverse the equation this time, we need lots of RINOs beating each other up and splitting the establishment vote and one strong conservative to skate to the nomination.

Yup, thinking strategically.

Thing is that there's another part to that equation: Conservatives need to coalesce, EARLY, around a common acceptable candidate. The failure to do so is what keeps killing us in the primaries.

If Bush running spurs that, then its a good thing. If it doesn't, he gets the nomination the same way Romney and McCain did and Conservatives have no one but ourselves to blame.
