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.

There is absolutely nothing that could make me vote for Jeb Bush.

[VanDeKoik]

I’m actually ok with JEB as the nominee. He has demonstrated that he has the leadership abilities to really turn this country around. He is an authentic conservative and that is what we should look at.

Yeah, I’m totally f*cking with you.

FUJB.

[Secret Agent Man]

either stopping a conservative winning or winnng themselves. yeah. pathetic.

If Jeb is SELECTED as the GOP nominee, I will actively vote against him by voting for whatever Democrat Socialist faces him. As demonstrated by the CROmnibus, it’s all one big Republican-Democrat-Socialist party anyway, but I’d rather have a Democrat blamed for the start of the civil war. Let’s vote against Jeb, and get this civil war started, so it can get over with, and we can start putting the pieces back together into something resembling the Founders’ Republic.

And the people you voted for are just fine with that. You must be so proud.

You’re part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Let his campaign's death be a particularly unpleasant and humiliating one.

Romney/JBush 2016

[who knows what evil?]

Terri will reach out from beyond the grave and crush the aspirations of the Bush syndicate.

[Himyar]

Aye! Don’t overlook the good in a search for the perfect. I don’t want Bush, but I want another dem even less.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Yes. I prefer the word evil..

[justa-hairyape]

His daddy turned me into a libertarian and his brother turned me into a tea partier. Have no idea what another Bush would turn me into. Maybe a viking ?

[dfwgator]

Even Tracey Morgan has recovered enough now to chime in....

Jeb Bush Campaign Motto:

“Bush 2016: Third Time’s a Charm!”

[CAluvdubya]

He is in the process of securing finances and needs help selling his pro-amnesty position - his main and big-time problem.

Don't forget his Common Core position. Another popular stance with us. /s

[Bogey78O]

Exploring? Hopefully he joins other famous explorers like Robert Falcon Scott in that he gets beat to the target and we never see him again.

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

It is already difficult to distinguish Dems from Pubbies.

Recall that in 2000, McCain threatened to jump parties.

Recall that in 2004, McCain wanted to be Kerry's VP.

Recall that in 2008, McCain wanted Lieberman as his VP, but his staff balked.

If Obama were running again, he could select Boehner as his new VP.

Party over principle blah blah blah...
