Jeb Bush is exploring a 2016 presidential bid.

The former Florida governor said in a post on Facebook Tuesday that over the Thanksgiving holiday there was a lot of discussion about the future of the nation.

“As a result of these conversations and thoughtful consideration of the kind of strong leadership I think America needs, I have decided to actively explore the possibility of running for President of the United States,” Mr. Bush said.

Mr. Bush said he plans to establish a Leader PAC next month to “help me facilitate conversations with citizens across America to discuss the most critical challenges facing our exceptional nation.”

“The PAC’s purpose will be to support leaders, ideas and policies that will expand opportunity and prosperity for all Americans,” he said.

In 2012, I voted third party (Virgil Goode), and I live in a swing state (NM).

I’d do it again, and again and again

if Romney or Bush or any generic George W. McRino is the nominee.

OMFG!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO AWAY !!!! AND TAKE MCLAME WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fishtank]

I was cursed here on FR on election day, and I’d still do it again.

Was my reaction as well. No...a thousand times no. The only good part is Christie and Romney screamed the same thing.

I Think either a Hillary Clinton/Jeb Bush or Jeb Bush/Hillary Clinton ticket would be hard for republicans to beat.

[servo1969]

He’s like a piece that just won’t flush.

[KoRn]

He’s in, and running.

Has anyone EVER seen a so called “Exploratory Committee” by a big name establishment politician lead to a non-candidacy?? LOL

[anoldafvet]

Nobody in my family will be voting for him.

[b4its2late]

[b4its2late]

I think he’ll only get other Bushes to vote for him.

“Jeb Bush is exploring a 2016 presidential bid”

This is breaking news??? He has been “exploring” for a long time. He is in the process of securing finances and needs help selling his pro-amnesty position - his main and big-time problem.

[ExSoldier]

Agreed, but I am having a lot of fun with this, sending it out to all my liberal friends and family to see or hear their heads explode just like the movie Mars Attacks!

[justlurking]

Please. No more Bush's, no more Clinton's.

It's time to put an end to the political dynasties.

[stephenjohnbanker]

The GOPe backed McCain, knowing he would lose.

The GOP backed Romney, knowing he would lose.

The GOP will back another super RINO, knowing he will lose.

But look who WON because we lost?

The Chamber of Commerce

Big banks

American based multinational corporations

They want amnesty, and Obamacare, so they can shift all of the costs on the American taxpayer, while they reap all the profits.

Nice(deadly) game, if you have the money to play......Heads they win, tails they win.

Boehner & McConnell just sold America to the above-mentioned highest bidders.

[Leaning Right]

He hasn’t got a chance.

He's lining up the big money now. And he'll have a real shot at the nomination if GOP conservative candidates split the primary vote (as in 2008 and 2012).
