Report: Jeb Bush on Board of Directors of Pro-Obamacare Company
by Tony Lee 21 Apr 2014
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush wanted to cash out after he left office, but those business entanglements may hurt him if he chooses to run for the GOP nomination in a party that is increasingly becoming opposed to crony capitalism.
According to a report in The New York Times, "Bush left public office seven years ago with a net worth of $1.3 million and an unapologetic determination to expand his wealth, telling friends that his finances had suffered during his time in government."
Bush tried to prop up Lehman Brothers before it collapsed and almost took down the financial system with it, eventually costing taxpayers billions of dollars to bail out banks. This galvanized what would become the Tea Party movement. He has also been associated with some troubled and shady companies and executives, as well as a company that promoted Obamacare.
Bush's associations with Lehman Brothers may prove more troubling for someone the Tea Party already distrusts for his unabashed support of amnesty and the Common Core:

This guy is a non-starter! They should stop writing about him.
My prediction is he won't survive one primary if he even gets that far.
He's not even close to being a presidential candidate. ....not in my book at least.

When you go into the race with over 50% of the voting populous saying they will never vote for you, you are finished. They only reason he is being pimped by the Rove wing is because Christie is finished and they have no other jack asses in the stable.
The same goes for Hitlary. No one but the chattering Upper East Side class wants her to run. She ill self destruct immediately if she runs and she knows it. She has a record now unlike '08.
