CBS Face The Nation May 31, 2015

Anyone who is closing in on Social Security knows that they can't get Social Security before they are 66, many later. Jeb Bush doesn't know this. He was taped on Face The Nation. He was recorded saying that Social Security should be raised from 65 to 68 or 70. Anyone who is proposing a change to a major law should know vital details of what they are talking about. Bush is making the same blunders that Romney did. He has no knowledge of the day to day problems of 99% of the people that he wants to lead.

He can be seen saying this on the McLaughlin Group minute 22 second 30 on this web site:

I don't know about that, but he's certainly another Bush. And I don't want to see another Bush or another Clinton in the White House. In a nation of some 330 million, we can and must do better.

Another Bush clueless about public policy? The scary thing is he is the smart one. Never trust a family where the smart kid is named Jeb.

I heard Robin Williams say that.

Umm, you can start drawing Social Security at 62. The age for full benefits is slowly working upward from 65 to 67 for those born after 1960.

Neither Jeb nor Romney ever worked a day in their lives, so they have that much in common. Both of them rode the coattails of their politician father to get to their privileged status in life, albeit Jeb less so than his brother George Walker Bush.

I thought you could start collecting at 62. But you earn more by delaying.

Even so why do you think it would be such a sign of ignorance.

ETA I see this was pointed out by North Beach Person.
