I think I'd like to see Jeb Bush in play for 2016. This is sorta funny
through. I was thinking back to discussions here in rec.boats back
around 1997 or 1998 the other day and I remember I posted that I'd like
to see George Bush throw his hat in the ring. Look what that got us.

I agree about Jeb even though I wouldn't be all that excited about
another Bush in the Whitehouse. Of all the possible Republican
candidates that we know about now, he's probably the only one that's
electable. He seems to have done a decent job as governor of Florida
although I did not live here then. He'll have to get by the right
wing crazy faction of the party to get the nomination and that may not
be easy.



He was the governor during the three+ years we had a place down there.
My recollection is that he was well liked, respected and moderate in his
politics. He received high grades for his responses to the three
hurricanes that occurred during the time we were there.

He's more cerebral than his brother.
