In Spanish, Jeb Bush recounts his children were taunted for their skin tone - The Washington Post

What he probably leaves out is that it was white Cubans who taunted his son.

Has any kid you've ever known not been teased or bullied for being different?

Kids can be so mean so everyone has experienced something at some point.

I think it's so insincere when people claim to have been bullied and make it out to be some HUGE thing to get sympathy. Even wealthy, powerful, very entitled people use this tactic.

If a blonde haired, freckle faced, White woman, can be Black, run the local NAACP & be a professor of African American Studies at the local university, then Bush can be Latino.

lesbian, and female. Which is how Bush should define himself...the first Hispanic, female, lesbian candidate for president. Everyone is fluid these days!

He called his wife a good Mexican and explained he's Hispanic because they eat Mexican food and speak Spanish in the home. Has he lost his mind?

Jeb Bush speaks frequently about the time he met his wife as a high school exchange student in Mexico. But he rarely does so in Spanish. And rarely has he spoken about the taunts his own children faced for the color of their skin growing up as half-Hispanic children in Florida.

What he probably leaves out is that it was white Cubans who taunted his son.
Half Hispanic? Then Mr Bush; please tell us how a white Argentine can be full Hispanic and look like a Swede. lol

What gets me is why so many people thing Hispanic and LatAm Mestizo are the same thing; they ain't.

I am sure all the privilege that goes with being a Bush does not include having to endure taunting at a prep school He is lying. I agree with and would vote for Trump but not Bush.
