Maybe it's a media conspiracy but of late I've become more open to the idea of a Jeb presidency. I'm not there yet but I've been impressed with his leadership and the way he has stuck to his principles.

Walker, although he hasn't announced, is disappointing. I hope he improves as I feel he'd be a better option. Rubio seems ok but his lack of experience and his aggressive foreign policy stances concern me.

Thoughts?

Anyone but a Democrap 2016.

I really could careless at this point who the Repug nominee is, No way in frigging hell am I voting for someone in the liberal lunatic party.

Ill vote my conscious in the primary but it won't mean crap in Kaliforniastan. Then ill vote for whomever the Repugs nominate.

No one anywhere at this point is closer to my independent conservative views than Paul. However no way in hell is he gonna win the nomination.

My conservative base can pull a Repug President especially if we keep the House and Senate. No way in **** is that POS Criminal HildaBeast gonna be pulled more toward my views.

I could never vote for a Republican who's only concern is abolishing the public school system. Do we need a Bush saga part 3 ? How many until they get it right? Bush got involved in a husbands right to pull the plug on his wife after doctors said she was a vegetable. He and his religious beliefs stepped over the line. It had nothing to do with him but he got involved. (Terry Schavio)

It is shameful the pain he inflicted on that family for his political gain. Worse, he is still trying to profit from it last week trumpeting it as an accomplishment at a meeting of religious zealots he was addressing. We will see some very damaging ads before the election critical of his position for government intrusion in private matters.

I've never yet voted for a Bush but I would consider voting for Jeb, depending upon who he selected for his running mate.

I don't agree with all of his actions and statements (especially his stance in the Schavio case) but that's true of every candidate.

But it was ok for Obama to step into the fray with the "Beer Summit" or to call Trayvon his "son?"

Default Thumbs down on this pretender

No matter how carefully Jeb crafts his deceptive marketing strategy, to lure suckers into voting for yet another BUSH, his Conservative ideology is THE problem. That ideology has been detrimental to this country at least going back 20 years. The last time we had a Bush in office, it was a disaster, and Republicans have done NOTHING to show they are any better than they were under Dubya. Jeb has demonstrated that he is part of the problem. What a significant drop off he represents, from our great President Obama.

So Jeb, is an acquired taste, like eating dry, undercooked liver and slimy seaweed algae. No, thank you.

He's an illegal alien sympathizer so it's a no go for me. He said breaking our immigration laws is an act of love.

Exclamation Jeb Bush

I like how he has explained his polices and I feel a little better. However I do like the other candidates better like Cruz, Perry and Rubio at this point. It will be interesting how the process shakes out.
