I would not vote for him because even though he should have run instead of his brother, his name alone would hurt him. We need new folks in the republican card. That being said I vote for the person and not a R or D behind the name.
Yes, I his brother is his biggest obstacle, but I think most people understand Jeb is a much better candidate than "W", and his father.
Jeb Bush is no favorite of mine... his attitude to illegals , saying they come here as an "act of love" for family... Gee , If my mother was poor and needed a car, does that mean I can do something illegal like steal some money, or a car for her and call it an "act of love"?
I think those young faces are just too young to run. Rubio, Rand Paul for example will have much better chances in 12 to 20 years.
12 years maybe, 20 years, again you will pushing the age line. I realize 60 is the new 40; even me at near 80 isn't the near 80 of the past (well I have a horrible sinus infection right now, so I feel older than my age. ) still both would be more at a perfect age sooner than later. The biggest problem I see iwht Rand or Rubio (2 of my favorites) is their lack of experience, not their age. I do think Rand is a little better off as he comes from a political family background, thus understands the system a little better than many new senators. We must remember the young voters as well, they might be more inclined to support someone they don't see as having one foot in the grave.

I said 12-20 years because it would give them time to gather the experience they need. Either way, it is way too soon for those two.
I am done with the GOP. Morons just can't help but want to lose. I think another Bush in the WH would be as exciting as a Clinton...but I would vote for Hillary over Jeb......

If you did it for your mother, you could call it an act of love. And you can tell it to the prison guards too, but it doesn't mean they'd let you out.
Though I know his amnesty stand is popular with many, it goes to far for me: complete amnesty means nothing but trouble in my estimation. We need a better system and some adjustments but not amnesty.
It would depend on the conditions in his proposal. I don't think he said he would simply allow them to stay.

Rand Paul would need to do what Obama did as far as VP. Pick someone with DC experience. Newt would be my choice.
