George P. Bush Says Dad 'Moving Forward' on 2016
AP via Yahoo ^ | October 26, 2014 | Ken Thomas

Jeb Bush is "moving forward" on a potential 2016 White House run and it appears more likely he'll enter the Republican race. That's the opinion of his son, who's running for office in Texas.

George P. Bush tells ABC's "This Week" that his father is "still assessing" a presidential bid, but it seems more likely he'll seek the presidency this time. The former Florida governor declined to run for president in 2012 despite encouragement from Republicans.

Isn't there a Constitutional Amendment against more than two presidents (father, son) of one family?

I'm kidding, of course, but the announcement of an impending run by another Bush doesn't fill anyone with any sense of political glee, more so as political mediocrity, than anything else. Has he achieved anything of political significance as Governor of Florida? I don't think so.

Even as member of the "illustrious" Bush political dynasty, Jeb Bush got shortchanged in the already shallow Bush presidential gene pool. I liked George Bush but Jeb seems bereft of any leadership qualities.

If his last name wasn't Bush no one would be paying him the slightest attention.

Can’t this family find other work? This must be a genetic defect in the Kennedys and Bushes.

Just leave us alone, please.

If they ever discover a new bothersome skin fungus in the candida family that is particularly hard to rid one’s self of, I suggest they name it after the Bush’s.

I early voted and painstakingly voted each race so I could vote Libertarian against Cornyn & “Baby” Bush.

Did the article say he was running as a Republican or Democrat?

No more Bushes. Honestly, they are the only people in the country who DON’T realize just how toxic the name “Bush” has become.

As Governor, Jeb Bush did NOTHING to stop the horrific death of Terri Schiavo.

NEVER forget that!

Can’t the corrupt Clintons and the Bush families just Go Away! Enough!

Let a new generation of reformers / people with solutions

have their turn so we can turn the country around to where

laws meant something. Jeb thinks he is due this.

If they run an open-borders guy it will break this party.

Moving Forward? He really said that? What a poor choice of words to lean forward into! Just what Conservatives need, another dimocrat running as a republican. Thanks but no thanks.

I can't get over you “conservatives” who actually trust the government to control your death bed instead following the wishes of the spouse you freely married.

The rich elites believe in over population and are doing their best to control masses of people. The government also wants to control your healthcare money. Obama and the Bushes and everyone else in Washington agree on that one thing.

Yet you want government to override your husband or wife and take control of your final moments by a redefinition marriage!

What is the difference between you and the gay marriage pushers? NOTHING!
