On "Fox News Sunday," former President George H. W. Bush said he's ready for another Bush in the White House. He hopes his son Jeb runs for Senate in Florida and one day for president.
"I think he'd be an outstanding senator ... I'd like to see him be president some day," Bush said. "Right now is probably a bad time because maybe we've had enough Bushes in there."
Do you think George W. Bush has ruined any chance that Jeb has to be President?

I'd like to tell the Bush family that we are capable of doing just fine without one of them at the helm. We'll be just fine.
I don't want to see Marvin, Jenna, Doro, Barbara, Pierce, Maria, Neil, Jeb, Laura, George, Prescott or any Bush ever occupy the White House again.
What I would like from them is to ride off into the sunset, just like the cowboys they profess to be, never to be heard from again.
Can the Republican Party survive after Bush. It's looking pretty slim for them right now. Fox News is even losing its ratings.
Isn't Lloyd's comment wonderful, it includes a complete list of folks to avoid.
Has anybody else heard that Prescott's generation was heavily involved in China (AIG?)
Neil Bush was a member of the board of directors of Denver-based Silverado Savings and Loan during the 1980s' larger Savings and Loan crisis. As his father was Vice President of the United States, his role in Silverado's failure was a focal point of publicity. According to a piece in Salon, Silverado's collapse cost taxpayers $1 billion.
The US Office of Thrift Supervision investigated Silverado's failure and determined that Bush had engaged in numerous "breaches of his fiduciary duties involving multiple conflicts of interest." Although Bush was not indicted on criminal charges, a civil action was brought against him and the other Silverado directors by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; it was eventually settled out of court, with Bush paying $50,000 as part of the settlement, as reported in the Style section of the Washington Post.
A Republican fundraiser set up a fund to help defer costs Neil incurred in his S&L dealings.
Barbara, who has made some of the most disgusting comments ever? (Won't waste her "beautiful mind" thinking about the body bags needed to carry home the lives her son wasted?)
Jeb's wife, who was charged with smuggling because she didn't claim what she bought while traveling outside the country because she didn't want Jeb to know? (Is this not a red flag for some sort of domestic abuse?)
Laura -- I'll go easy on her. She seems to be the bet of the lot.
And then we can move on to the kids. How many with drug charges while living in government housing? Wouldn't seem all that bad if the same rules that apply to poor people who have nowhere else to live had been applied to them.
This ardent admirer of Benito M and Hitler combined with the heads of prominent American corporations such as Birdseye, Maxwell House, Heinze, and some of the wealthiest families in America in an attempt to seize control of the country.
Prescott continued to aid the Nazis until 1942. This is the source of the Bush family fortune.
There is a BBC radio broadcast about this that aired on July 23rd 2007. You will never hear about it here in the states.
As long as people are not allowed to forget how much that family f-ed up the USA, there won't be another spawn of Bushfolk in the White House.
ATTN: BUSH FAMILY RANCH, CRAWFORD TX.
Let us bury them in shoes, boots and slippers...eventually, they'll catch on.
READ MY LIPS: NEVER AGAIN. NOT IN MY LIFETIME.

"JUST SAY NO TO BUSH!"
I don't know much about Jeb, but I think America is pretty tired of the Clintons and the Bushes. After four or eight years, we MIGHT be ready.
If he runs, let's listen to what he has to say and look at his record -- then decide.
