Trump Makes Goal-Line Stand: ‘Honestly, I Don’t Think’ The Redskins Should

About the same time, however, a Florida Atlantic University survey showed Rubio with a substantial lead over Bush among Republican Primary voters, 19.2% to Bush’s 11.3%.

Jeb Bush has fallen out of the top tier of The Chase, dislodged by his homestate friend and rival Marco Rubio.

“I honestly believe that if I can become elected president we can begin to fix a few of these issues I’ve been so frustrated we have not been able to address during my time in the Senate”, said Rubio. In addition, while the former president is popular among the conservative base, he’s still not a victor among the electorate at large, especially Democrats, which could hurt Jeb’s general election prospects if he does manage to clinch the nomination. “There’s no question that George W.is probably as popular here as anywhere outside of Texas”.

It may ruin the race for him down the line, but it could win the race here.

He made education his priority while in office, and he would likely try and continue building on this legacy once in the White House. In a recent campaign appearance, candidate Jeb Bush offered yet another useful case study of how not to do it. Rubio has long had strong approval ratings among Republicans, so even those who are now supporting someone else don’t dislike him.

Rubio’s message, which has always emphasized his youth and novelty in American politics, is growing more pointed as the campaigns converge.

With just two words – “free stuff” – Bush managed to insult millions of black Americans, completely misread what motivates black people to vote, and falsely imply that African Americans are the predominant consumers of vital social services. When pressed by reporters on the campaign trail to say where he differs from W., Jeb has a tendency to lament the fact that his brother didn’t use his veto pen to reign in congressional spending. But he has relied on his family’s fund-raising network to outpace the rest of the Republican field.

“So, you know, he has said multiple times he’s still in this”.

He acknowledges, however, that Marco has improved his standing. They both agree that the Washington Redskins’ name is okay and non-offensive.

“I know Indians that are extremely proud of that name”, he added.

Like Rand Paul trotting out his father Ron Paul (after months of minimizing the familial relationship), Bush is trying to find a spark. This matters when Republican voters are sizing up candidates to take on Hillary Clinton.
