Was Jeb Bush Caught Doing Trying to Make Himself Seem Bigger During Debate Photos?

-By Warner Todd Huston


Bush caught trying to trick the cameras?

Before the program began at the Reagan Library for Wednesday’s second Republican presidential debate all the candidates, including three of the four from the earlier, undercard debate, lined up for a group photo. But as the phtogs assembled, some accused Jeb Bush of rising up on his tiptoes and spreading his arms to make himself taller and wider than any of the other candidates.

Bush, who at six-foot-three is already one of the tallest candidates in the filed, stood near the center of the group denoting his status as a front runner for the nomination–at least by CNN’s reckoning. But as the cameras started to click, Jeb can clearly be seen rising up and spreading his arms.

Jeb Bush Calls Southerners and the Confederate Flag ‘Racist’

Jeb Bush has now told the entire south that he doesn’t want their vote by claiming that the Confederate flag and all who support it are racist.

If the Republican Party is stupid enough to hand Jeb Bush the nomination for the 2016 election for president, we will be stuck with another four years of a Democrat in the White House. ANY Democrat in the White House. Jeb can’t win and he’ll lose the entire base of the party if he becomes the nominee. His nomination will also be the last straw for most conservatives.

Bush foolishly imagines that he can overcome his disagreements with the conservative base. And his assumption might seem sensible in light of recent electoral history where the base has always dutifully fallen into line just ahead of the general election even after years of complaints. But I think that Bush misreads the level of dissatisfaction that conservatives have reached.

At a recent appearance in Myrtle Beach, SC, Bush said that he thinks all the carping conservatives are doing about yet another Bush run for the White House will go away once the nomination is had and the general election is nigh.
