The Bush name is now synonymous with retardation and blunders, which is sad considering what a great man their father is.

He sure did not help. Jeb's best bet is to get on the ticket as the VP and wait another 8 years.

no doubt. I still wouldn't vote for him because I personally don't think we need a monarchy in this country, but not many people think like that.

he would get destroyed

I think there would be a natural reluctance once you got to a third Bush in such a short time regardless of his performance.

So, short of the W years being a raging America boner of awesome. No.

Nope, I think Jeb and his own stances are doing a fine job at destroying his chances...

Hell no. I crave another bible beating, big government loving "republican."

But don't worry. If Jeb fails, His son George P will be along in about 10-20 years. He's half Latino, ya know. Jorge Bushdez.

I think Jeb is probably a little brighter than W, but I think W is a really, really good person and someone who really wants America to thrive. His father is the epitome of a patriot as well.

Say what you will about the administration, you'd be hard pressed to find someone who had a personal experience with W where they thought he was anything but a genuine person.

No, the GOP did. The American people's desire for that kind of leadership and government has waned. War on "X" fatigue.

Directly responsible for the deaths of thousands for no reason other then the fact he wanted to show what a tough guy he was...

You guys continue to try to rehab this idiot's image humor me.

Jeb supports Common Core which is enough for me not to support him.

It can just as easily be said Billy Boy Clinton had the same public rationale for bombing Iraq(Afghanistan, etc..) in the late 90's as did Bush(WMD)except the case could be made it was to cover over the Lewinski mess. You have the same feelings toward him as you do Bush?

No more than Obama has destroyed the chance of another Kenyan being elected president.

It isn't to anyone who knows their family history. The Bush family has a long and distinguished history of public service going back to Samuel Bush. They are the model for prominent political families who have served the public for the sake of serving the public. Much moreso than the Kennedys or the Clintons. Look it up.
