No Way, Forget about it GOP!!! GOP donors reportedly working to draft Jeb Bush for 2016 presidential run
GOP donors reportedly working to draft Jeb Bush for 2016 presidential run
A group of top Republican donors have reportedly begun an intense effort to draft former Florida governor Jeb Bush into the race for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016.
A Washington Post report quotes one major donor as saying that the "vast majority" of the top 100 givers to 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney would back Bush in a nomination fight.
Earlier this week, Bush met privately with casino magnate and GOP donor Sheldon Adelson and addressed the Republican Jewish Coalition's senior members at a dinner held Thursday at Adelson's company airport hangar. The Post, citing a donor in attendance at the dinner, reported that the crowd of about 60 guests applauded when one told Bush, "I hope you run for President in 2016."

No way and no way to Chris Christie and Rand Paul. I wish the GOP would stop this insane thing of picking the person and not letting all of us decide the one we want.

Running Jeb Bush is the same as electing Hillary. No way the American Public will vote another Bush into office. If the GOP runs another moderate, Hillary will be our president.

The GOP would rather run one of their insiders and lose than to run a real conservative. I will not forget George HW Bush calling Reagan's economics "voodoo economics". Bush then accepted the VP position under Reagan, enjoyed the success of Reagan's economics, ran on Reagan's legacy, then as president tried his own economics and failed. The Bush clan are Rinos.
