Well, I won't vote for Hillary so it's that or abstain.
I'd have to give which I wanted to do some thought. |

I'm tired of voting for the lesser of two evils.
Plus I doubt America will vote for another Bush. EVER. |

If my only choice was socialist Hillary vs Bush, I'd hold my nose and vote for him.
I understand the temptation some have to not slow down the process of collapse, but the people who say let it fall apart seem to assume that what will arise out of the ashes after America burns, will be good. I do not. Even if he wasn't for amnesty, and might be a pretty decent President otherwise he can't win a General Election Because he is simply a "BOOSH" it will be too easy for the liberal press to demonize him so the LIV voters will think he is a monster. It will be like the press coverage back in 2006, 24/7 how they are an evil warmongering family. |

The Bush name is poison, in American politics. (Note that I'm not saying if it SHOULD be or not, just that it is.) I would be astonished if he didn't lose in a landslide. |

Jeb Bush had an outstanding record on 2nd amendment issues while governor.
For example: http://www.nraila.org/news-issues/news-from-nra-ila/2006/governor-jeb-bush-signs-nra-backed-br-p.aspx He is vastly preferable to any conceivable candidate the Democrats are likely to run. Voting for a third party candidate only increases the chances that we will be condemned to another 8 years of Hillary or the like. So yes, I would vote for Jeb Bush, warts on immigration and the bailouts notwithstanding. He's certainly not my first choice however. I will contribute $$ to Rand Paul, or Ted Cruz, or even Rick Perry in the primary to try and get a better candidate than Jeb Bush. |

If it comes down to a Bush vs. Clinton general election, I will in all honesty, most likely give up on politics at the federal level. It will be the final straw for me, that our government is a complete shame and is merely a facade.
How anyone here, or anywhere, could support Bush is beyond insane. This country is not a fucking monarchy or oligarchy. Since when is it acceptable for 2 families to just pass around and hand down the POTUS to their family members? And all that aside, it's truly laughable that anyone would think anyone with the last name Bush is even remotely electable. People from both sides had a vitriolic hate and contempt for GW. You think that will all just go by the wayside and not carry over to Jeb? He is the literal definition of an "unelectable candidate" that so many here love to scream about. If he gets the nomination, it's because the GOP establishment is throwing the election because they cannot stomach the thought of someone like Rand getting it. How any of you could think that he has a chance against, well, pretty much anyone is a fucking joke. Do you not venture out into the real world much or what? |

Primary? Not a chance.
General? Yes Virginia will go blue, so my vote doesn't matter anymore. Hitlery or Fakeahountas is going to whip the ever loving shit out of any R that runs. |

View Quote You couldn't be any more wrong about Jeb Bush's electoral chances or popularity. You are merely projecting your own intense dislike of Bush and assuming everyone else shares it. In fact, nationally (out here in the "real world" beyond your mom's basement) not very many share your view. Polls show he is still very highly regarded in Florida, and would carry that State against Hillary. He does better against Clinton than any other potential GoP candidate, trailing by only a few points nationally, much better than Christie. Nationally, the public's memories of his brother doesn't seem to hurt him greatly. |

Of course. This is a fairly simple thing to analyze. I'm merely in favor of preventing a theme that looks like:
Obama, Clinton, Clinton, Pelosi, etc. And of course the final blow to the Supreme Court that comes with it. There's what we want ideally, and what we have to work with as a reality. Long term, maybe there's a way out of the 2 party monopoly. Short term, lets just slow down the destruction. Quoted:

I'd vote for a Bush over about any democrat likely to be nominated. But I would much rather vote for Rand Paul or Ted Cruz etc. If a progressive republican is running I will likely vote libertarian or constitution party, because my state is likely to go republican w/ or w/o my vote.
