Jeb Bush Will Enter The Presidential Race
 
You heard it hear first.

Jeb Bush will be president.

onwebcam 03-01-2012 10:17 AM

No way in hell will he be President. They may throw him in to reassure Obama's reelection though.

AsianDivaGirlsWebDude 03-01-2012 10:23 AM

Spare us...I think the Bush family has done enough damage to this country.

W ruined the Bush name. Where I live they actually passed a city council resolution declaring that "George Bush Drive" is named for HW (41), not for W (43).

He is a moderate Republican and has the Latino vote LOCKED.

Its still early, but if the stock market keeps going up and unemployment going down it won't matter who the GOP puts up... :winkwink:

Exactly what I was thinking.

Since it sounds like you may be moderately serious, at this late point in the primary game, it would make little sense for Jeb Bush to run, since it would simply throw the GOP into even bigger disarray, and likely infuriate the far-right evangelical Christian conservative base (Jeb is a moderate Catholic - 4th Degree, Knights of Columbus).

Better for Jeb to sit this one out, and then make a run in 2016 if he wants to improve his odds of winning the White House someday.

Personally, I would rather have Jeb Bush running than Romney, Santorum, or Gingrich, since if he won, I believe that he might be more pragmatic, and less devisive than Mitt et al.

Jeb would have to enter the race as an independent since it is too late for him to get on the primary ballots for the republican party.

With his family connections he could raise enough money to make a serious run, but he would likely split the republican vote with the republican nominee thus guaranteeing Obama another term.

Yeah I wouldn't want to be elected in 2012. I'd definitely rather be elected in 2016, after the costs of Obama's trillions in solar "stimulus", Obamacare, etc. have already kicked in, rather than take over in 2012 just before all of those bills starting coming due. I think that's one reason this year's republucan field is less than stellar - the smart republicans don't want to sign up to take the blame for what's coming. Much better to wait until 2016 when they can promise to save us from the mess which by then will be so obvious that average joes see it clearly.

I believe the American people are in fact stupid enough to vote in another Bush. He'll ride in, make a bunch of promises to put people back to work, lower taxes, better schools, blah, blah, blah, and people will believe he will actually make a difference. But the joke is on them.

And after 4 more years of the current administration, they may be begging for another Bush.

I agree with this 100%.

edgeprod 03-01-2012 12:46 PM

Let's see here ... Bush's highest approval rating was 90, Obama's was 69. The high/low on Obama is only 31, whereas Bush was 65 (his Dad was 60). Average approval is:

GHW Bush: 60.9
GW Bush: 49.4
Obama: 49

Data accurate as of March 1st, 2012.

So, instead of making retarded blanket statements that have no basis in reality, these are the facts.

I'm not sure what these facts point put.

GHW Bush had the highest average approval rating of all three of them and yet failed to get re-elected. GW Bush while running up big debt, getting us stuck in a war we didn't need to fight and generally being a fuck up did get re-elected.

It's in reference to all of the people crying about GWB's approval ratings. I don't mind the people who endlessly whine about other things he did, but the approval rating is kind of a funny thing .. it's like when John Kerry talked about the stupidity, yet had worse grades at Yale.

Political threads on GFY are like the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.

Ah, I get it now.

That was classic when it came out how bad Kerry's grades were.

Everytime I hear his name I think of this joke the comedian Earthquake told: "Why is John Kerry even running for president? He married the Heinz heir. He married ketchup. Every time someone orders fries. . . cha ching cha ching!"

Sounds about right to me.

Maybe you can explain your math to me:

Quote:

Submitted February 1, 2010
Submitted by Barack Obama
Submitted to 111th Congress
Passed April 15, 2011 (Pub.L. 112-10)

Total revenue $2.567 trillion (requested) $2.314 trillion (enacted)
Total expenditures $3.834 trillion (requested) .$3.360 trillion (enacted)
Debt payment $0.25 trillion (requested) Deficit $1.56 trillion (requested)

Library of Congress

How do YOU figure a country can spend 50% more than it brings in and not go broke within a few years. How does that math work?

Based on the arithmetic I learned in second grade, in three years we'll owe $18.5 trillion and bring in $2.5 trillion. To put that into perspective, that's like someone making $100k who owes $720,000. Tell me how that works in your world.

Treasury bonds average about 5%, so figure just under a trillion per year in interest four years from now. So we're bring in $2.5 trillion and spending $1 trillion on interest. That leaves $1.5 trillion to fund the government, but Obama is spending $3.5 trllion. Do you think he's going to cut spending 60%-70%? Explain how that can work, please.

No, Jeb Bush will not be president. The republicans have fucked up this election. Obama will win because he is the incumbent, he's presidential and he's good. Jeb Bush is a smart man and won't run because he knows he cannot win. The rest of the clown shoes are just entertainment. It's going to take years for the republicans to clean up the shit house they've got going on. Hopefully the democrats will wize up fast enough to take advantage of these asshats. No, Jeb Bush, if he decides to run, will wait until Obama second term is finished, then he might run.

Yep the filing deadline have passed in so many states that if he entered now and won the rest of the primaries he would not be able to get 1144 delegates BUT it could deadlock the convention and if no one gets the nomination after the first round of voting delegates are free to vote for anyone they want even someone that have not been running for example Chris Christie, that scenario would piss off a lot of republican voters and would never happen but its a possibility.

They were actually talking about something like this happening even without someone else jumping in. Apparently the odds makers say there is about a 20% chance that neither Romney or Santorum will win enough delegates to get the nomination and there will be a brokered convention. That could cause all kinds of chaos and could, potentially, fracture the republican party.

If Newt would drop out very soon (if he loses Georgia?) then it comes closer to that it can happen since his following is more likely to go to Santorum than Romney.

I always loved this site http://www.electoral-vote.com not updating every day at the moment but usually gets busier and busier as we approach the general election.

That is a great site. I have a feeling Newt will be gone after next Tuesday. I think he will win Georgia. The polls have him ahead there, but I doubt he will win any other states so he will likely drop. The polls show Santorum ahead in a few of the Super Tuesday states so he could win enough to stick around and like you say if Newt bails those voters will likely got to Santorum and prolong the ordeal.

It could be a very interesting few months.

So in your opinion Obama had nothing to do with Obamacare? Interesting.
The president is required to.submit a budget. The congress debates it and makes changes, based on favors they and the president owe, to come up with something the president will sign. The president then signs it. So the budget starts with the president and ends with the president.
