In what many have seen as clear evidence that John Ellis "Jeb" Bush actually plans to throw his hat in the ring for the 2016 presidential race, last week, the former governor of Florida resigned from all of his corporate and non-profit board member positions. That's as subtle a signal as a cannon blast.
Back in 2008, as his older brother was slinking out of Oval office, many a journalist was commenting how George Bush had dashed ahead of his brother Jeb and effectively blew up the bridge. Rebuilding that bridge was utterly unthinkable given the mess. It was implied that Americans would never ever forget the chaos that eight years of Bush.
(As we have reported in the past, Jeb's problem has a few major problems that have nothing to do with his brother's incompetence.)
