Jeb Bush is deploying his "secret weapon" in a new video designed to appeal to Hispanic voters.
A new video released by the campaign Monday shows Bush speaking in Spanish and his wife, Columba Bush, speaking in English in her most expansive comments to date on her husband's behalf.
Entirely in Spanish, the candidate says: "The United States of America is a great country. Thanks to the people that come from all over the world, contributing to our economy and community. To me, Hispanic culture is very important and positive."
His wife, who was born in Mexico, adds in English: "I have lived over half my life here. We all have the same interests, the same feelings."
She adds later: "We go to church every Sunday. We have celebrations with the family and we keep our traditions. But at the end its just that, faith, friends and family."
In conclusion, Bush adds: "Hispanics contribute more every day to our culture; they are an integral part of the American dream. For these reasons and more, I invite you to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month because we are all Americans."
The ad is timed to the start of Hispanic Heritage Month, which begins Wednesday and stretches into mid-October a period during which most Central American and South American countries mark their independence days.

¡Ay, Columba!
I had one of those, it was yellow. Took some hard bargaining with Ma to let me get the junk food it was packaged with.

Maybe Trump can run an ad in español ‘splaining how America is going to mark OUR independence from latin American illegals.
That’s not his wife, that’s his daughter.

Have to admit I had some of the Frito Bandito erasers too.
La Iglesia Catolica! You know the one with the Commie Pope and the Cardinals who routinely violate this country's immigration laws, that one!
They work well together at fundraisers. Jeb cranks the barrel organ, while Columba scampers around collecting coins.
THIS IS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS..!!
great minds..!
They are such a weird looking couple.
LMAO
Well she’s got a shop lifting thingy against her and failing to declare Jewelry she was bringing over the border...thousands of dollars worth....she only declared $500. she likes to spend LOTS of money on herself...so she’s got an issue with spending....
Some have mentioned they think Jeb’s a ped. and why he picked her to marry. Imo she isn’t even close to First Lady material...another Michele Obama...
Well it’s not like she killed anybody in a car accident.
Columba is the real Mexican. Jeb is just a pretend Mexican.
Maybe Columba should be running.
Yeah, I just love the illegal here who drives around with miniature Mexican flags on his two car antennas blaring that Mexican polka music.
