Jeb Bush defends speaking Spanish, says Donald Trump doesn't share American values
Tampa Bay Times ^ | 9/3/15 | Alex Leary

Posted on 09/03/2015 8:27:51 AM PDT by jimbo123

Jeb Bush this morning reacted to Donald Trump criticizing him for using Spanish, calling his rival a divisive, unserious person who "doesn't believe in tolerance."

"I think Donald Trump is trying to insult his way to the presidency and it's not going to work," Bush said on Good Morning America. "People want an uplifting hopeful message. People come to this country to pursue their dreams, sometimes they start without speaking English but they learn English and they add vitality to our country."

What’s funny is that even if somehow he gets the nomination, the Rat nominee will still dominate the Hispanic vote.

La rasa and others want to make in unnecessary to speak English and to prevent your kids from getting a job without speaking Spanish.

sometimes they start without speaking English but they learn English and they add vitality to our country."

The mere fact that "Univision" and "Telemundo" even exist gives the lie to the first part of that statement. There is a large (and growing) segment in this country which doesn't speak English, aren't learning English, and to be perfectly frank, don't want to even attempt to learn it at all. This was Mr. Trump's actual point, and Mr. Bush doesn't even attempt to rebut it...

The Joyful Turtle bit isn’t working.

If there is any justice in this world this Schmutz will be sent home, Mexico, before the New Hampshire primary.

You are the one who doesn’t understand Americans and our values. Too much time in your Ivory Tower, listening to likewise out-of-touch overpaid “consultants”

This constant pandering to minorities is foolish. Look at the racial breakdowns of voting, all you are doing is alienating groups into stereotypes.

Try talking about things like: family, jobs, faith, quality and non-political education, safety in neighborhoods and schools. Those are the issues that transcend race. The Demons have made a mess of all the above. Don’t be foolish to follow their agenda and obsess with PC crap. Trump is tapping into the PC nonsense, which has been building to a crescendo for decades.

Outta touch, outta the race. Or make that outta La Raza. Get that, Jebbie?

In many places in this state speaking Spanish isn’t an inconvenience, its a requirement.

You couldn’t be more wrong Yebbie. Trump completely understands the values of the common American, that’s why he’s so strong in this race. You have completely lost touch with the common American...that’s why you’re being handed your ass. It’s also because you’re a spanish speaking jerk.

Why doesn’t he speak Italian? What is so special about Spanish? Is it because the Spanish don’t assimilate?

If Jeb keeps speaking Spanish he will lose. Period.

Donald Trump, and anyone who’s ever had to sell anything, knows that if you want to make a sale, your customer has first to understand your pitch.

Speaking in a language most voters don’t understand - Jeb, you’re GIVING this race to Trump! Just surrender now and get it over with!!!
