Barbara Bush Draws A Crowd In New Hampshire Campaigning For Jeb
“They give a great speech, they’re phenomenally talented, but we need an actual leader who’s been at the helm of a large state government in this case, bringing people together and moving our country forward”.
“I actually called that person up and I asked for her vote and I got it”, Bush said.
While she appeared in a video last month for her son, Thursday night marked the first time she came out on the trail.
A former Republican president is starting to campaign for his top candidate.
“She was the one that taught us right and wrong, I can promise you that”, Bush said. It comes as Rubio has jumped into the spot light after Iowa and Bush has save his flagging campaign in New Hampshire.
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush has struggled with that dynamic his entire campaign – sometimes embracing the Bush legacy, and sometimes holding it at arm’s length. “And I’m here to see whether I can determine whether he’d be a good executive”, said Roberta Hitchcock, Hanover resident. “I’m proud of my dad, I’m proud of my brother, I’m proud of being a Bush”.
Speaking at an event in Manchester, New Hampshire on Wednesday, Bush lashed out at GOP hopeful Donald Trump, and promised not to be a divisive president.
Jeb Bush’s (R) major financial backers are finally rolling out an advertisement with perhaps the governor’s most prominent endorser.
She shot back, “I don’t think so because another Bush is going to beat another Clinton”.
It looks like the ad won’t be the only role the former president plans to play in backing his brother’s candidacy. Bush hopes to reach voters now that there’s less than a week until the New Hampshire primaries.
“I’ve lived a very different life than my brother”, he continued.
