A day after sharply criticizing Hillary Rodham Clinton while outlining his strategy to fight the Islamic State, Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush said Wednesday the key to winning the 2016 election is campaigning with your arms wide open and joy in your heart.
During a meet-and-greet in Reno, the former Florida governor told about 200 people to resist getting behind those candidates who appeal to voters anger and fear about the future.
I know how to win. You win campaigning with your arms wide open. You win with joy in your heart. You dont win appealing to peoples basic fears and angst. You win by giving them a sense that their future can be brighter, he said.

Puke central. Spoken like a billionaire (who continue to make out well in the global kleptocracy). Patrick Henry warned about happy-talk like this in “Give Me Liberty or Give me Death.” Sometimes you just have to get nasty.
There. That's more like it.
Hey Jeb - the rest of us out here are living in reality; not some idealist’s dream. The joy we will have is the day we get all the GOPe out of the Congress of the US. With wide open arms we will welcome a true conservative, constitutional Congress and White House. They will do away with the liberal SC then too.
That ¡JEB! “Happy Warrior” thing is lifted straight from Hubert H. Humphrey.
Sweet and “sweeter” talks, NO thanks!!!
Which means we won’t win with Jebbie. He doesn’t give me joy -he is the perfect solution to insomnia.
Let’s start talking about his shortcomings and those committed by persons in his immediate circle, like his wife at customs. Let us NOT wait for the Dems to do it after primary season ends.
Some people just need kneecapping.
He’s as clueless as his father. Even if the key to winning is to campaign with joy, campaigning by telling everyone the key to winning is to campaign with joy is not the key to winning.
I’m thinking more of an old cartoon, Ren & Stempy - Happy, happy, joy, joy!
That was uncalled for...shame on you.
The GOPe “Flower Child” needs to head home and take a very long rest.
This IS my happy face!
He is nuts.
Hey...Jebbie...not much joy when there’s been job growth only for immigrants (Mark Levin)....we need a real FIGHTER for THIS country...nOT for you and your one world buddies....
Ahh, well you must be a lot younger than me. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. It’s a good thing.
;>)
Are you kidding? What kind of numbers would Trump or even Sanders get in the same situation?
What’s next? Love and joy and let us eat cake?
The future can only be brighter if we get the government the hell out of our lives
