Bush: Brother Jeb would be ‘great president’

ORLANDO, Fla. - President Bush suggested Wednesday that he’d like to see his family’s White House legacy continue, perhaps with his younger brother Jeb as the chief executive.

The president said Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is well-suited for another office and would make “a great president.”

“I would like to see Jeb run at some point in time, but I have no idea if that’s his intention or not,” Bush said in an interview with Florida reporters, according to an account on the St. Petersburg Times Web site.

I think he would be better than his brother at least.

As someone who has been keeping quiet on the whole Bush issue lately, I will say that, when George W. ran, his mother was a bit surprised, saying that she always thought that Jeb would be the next Bush president.

I always knew Barbara was one smart cookie. Too bad she has a crumby son. Shoulda gone with the other one.

Now you know that was in the plan...from the beginning.

Gov. Perry (Texas) could be his running mate.


It's only a prediction.

I can never, ever vote for someone named Jeb...the fact that he's a bush just makes me even more against the whole thing.

For a while now there have been quite a few commentaries about how Jeb was pissed off that his "Idiot" brother was screwing things up for the Bush family and how he would have made the better President. It's no secret and it's probably pretty damn true.

I don't think the Bush brothers are that close. It's one of those situations where, if they weren't brothers, they probably would not be friends.

Jeb doesn't have a chance in hell to become president anytime soon. Maybe if he runs in 2020, he might have a shot but I don't see the American people voting in another Bush anytime soon.

Live in Florida for a little bit while Jeb is still governor. You won't have the same opinion.

He wrecked Florida's education system among many other things.

Many of our teacher friends would argue that "No Child Left Behind" has wrecked our education system nationally.
