Not hard to figure out.........like Romney and Cain, among all the other azz clowns.......all Jeb has to do, is stand still, and not say a word, and wait for all the other even worse candidates to shoot their own feet off.
In 2008, no one wanted McCain and he was a whisker away from dropping out, due to lack of funds.
But then, one after the other, all the other "front runners" like Guliani and Huckabee, and all blew their own feet off........leaving McCain, as simply the last viable candidate standing.
That repeated itself, again, in 2012........as Newt, Bachmann, Perry, Santorum, The Cain Train, and all the rest, participated in what can only be described as a Twit of the Year contest..........leaving MITT, once again, the only semi-adult in the room.
We all know Jeb doesn't have a chance with that last name.........but, if all the GOP does, is run another azz clown rodeo.........all Jeb has to do, is stand still.......lay low.......and wait for everyone else to implode, one by one first. When the smoke clears............Jeb will look OUTSTANDING by comparison.....the same way they all finally rallied behind McCain, (when he was the LAST choice), and Romney (who NONE of them actually wanted).
It will all fall to Bush, eventually........as not only does he have the name recognition....(good or bad, but it's there)........but, let's face it......he's the most well connected, and will have the best forces behind his campaign......with the most experience at the game.
And, with Bush SR, recently ill.........he might even pick up some sympathy votes for old times sake,
Without a doubt, he will be the strongest candidate........with zero chance of winning.
Plus, let's face it.........everyone is dying to see another Clinton Vs. Bush match up. (The pundits, I mean, not the voters, that's for sure!)
If Bush wins, they will call that a vindication of Bush Jr. and a damning indictment of Obama.
If Hillary wins........the Bush name will be tarnished forever. Everyone wants to see the outcome to that burning question.
I am sure it will all eventually boil down to Hilary vs, Jeb. But we have to play the game in the meantime and pretend all these other azzclowns have some sort of chance, and waste billions in the process.......making "Ted Cruz for president" posters, and saturating the airwaves with fake hate ads.
*heavy sigh*
We could save billions right now, if Hilary and Jeb just flip a coin and call it a day.

The Repubs desperately want a Republican in the White House but they don't have any great candidates. They have lots of kooks and weirdos, beloved of the Tea Party, and then they have moderates who are hated by half their own party. And I think (must IMO) they have never really dealt with the widely-perceived failure of the Bush admin (I mean GW, not his dad--though Papa Bush clearly failed too, not winning a second term.)
Jeb is (1) apparently the only Republican (save, perhaps, Romney) who talks like a grown-up. And (2) The only Republican who's said he actually MIGHT run! He has excellent name recognition among Republicans. So for now he's the guy everyone is talking about, the guy all the other candidates need to beat for the nomination.
But it's still WAAAAY early yet. Candidates that get nominated sometimes come out of left field (well, okay, in this case right field). Jeb's been out of politics for years yet, plus he carries some baggage. And (again just IMO) I don't think we'll ever have another president named Bush.

Well, anyone can run.....but I can't explain the logic of why he is the leading republican candidate for 2016. Of course, given their other options, perhaps it isn't all that difficult to see why Jeb would be the 'winner' in a group full of complete losers.

It is all about who the elite globalists put out there. Their media use "Push Polls" to create a perception to potential voters. The logic lies with Corporate Globalists who own both parties, belong to the FRC (Foreign Relations Committee, just as most candidates do. Very bad for the people as we can see. There are very few candidates who are FOR the people and actually tell the truth, so they are "who" to vote for. Of course the candidates that the media promote by mentioning their names constantly we need to reject!

He has name recognition.
He wants the job.
That's all anyone needs to start running.

I'm a conservative but I see the likely fall out just because of Obama's blaming his Dad for all those years!
