House Speaker John Boehner signaled support for former Florida Governor Jeb Bush to run for president during a press conference on Monday.
“Jeb Bush is my friend,” Boehner said. "I think he’d make a great president. And I’ve been nudging him for some time.”
Boehner made his remarks during a Q&A session with Texas Tribune at the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce.
Boehner also asserted that a majority of Republicans were interested in immigration reform, even though some were blocking the issue.

I believe that the Republican party is being given permission to exist by the Democrat party in exchange for cooperation to the left.
I think it already past the point where the Treasury has been effective in buying the left office, financing and a majority of the vote.
Here’s my top down list:
1 - TED CRUZ
2 - SCOTT WALKER
3 - DR. BEN CARSON
4 - REP TREY GOUDY
Good grief. Every day it’s something. Something like this.
It’s really why I no longer feel the slightest connection or the slightest affiliation with the GOP whatsoever. Boehner, Jeb Bush. Yesterday it was Rand Paul chiding people for being concerned about voter-i.d., and saying it was “offending people.”
The Republican Party has become something very strange, very distant, and very foreign to me.
I would vote for any of them. Great choices.
And you're doing what to change it?
That’s the same thing the GOP “leadership” told us about the Kenyan.
johnny boner - a real challenger to mccrazy in a "who's the most worthless" contest.
The whole lot of 'em would make great burger flippers.
Well, for one thing, in the past two months, I gave money and supported tea-party candidates in my state’s primary. For another, I also wrote letters (snail-mail) to my congressman and my two senators, that if the Republicans conspired with the Dems to pass amnesty, that I’ve made a vow I will never vote for a single Republican candidate again, big office or small. Ditto for my family. It’s a vow we will keep.
I’ve been an exclusive GOP voter my entire voting life. In every election and primary. When I was drawn to the Republican Party, the topics that animated the Party were things like family values, anti-communism, balanced budget ammendments, term limits, judicial activism, and the like. It was a Party that seemed to share my values. That is obviously no longer the case. Where are the GOP leaders decrying the homo-fascists, the crazed judges, the cultural sewer that America has become?
I agree.
Stay out da Bushs!
chunky projectile barf....
That's a good thing.
I’ve made a vow I will never vote for a single Republican candidate again, big office or small. Ditto for my family. It’s a vow we will keep.
So, how do you expect to vote for the people you gave money to? All the TEAparty people in Congress are Republicans.

It still is, go read the RNC and your state party platforms. People like you crafted those declarations of principles.

Ding ding ding! There you have it.
The GOP leadership and elected officials that don't honor the platform need to be pulled out by the roots and thrown in the trash.
Uniparty Ping!
I’m going to stand by my vow, come hell or high water.
It likely won’t even be difficult. I already crossed the line in 2012 by leaving my presidential ballot blank, and refusing to give Romney my vote. First time in my voting life a GOP candidate didn’t get my vote. All thanks to Romney’s facillitation of homo-marriage, and his minions’ backstabbing attacks on Palin.
I’m not giving anyone my vote who holds my views and my values in contempt, regardless of party. And right now, I’m seeing practically zero evidence that the GOP leaders remotely share my views anymore.
That it can be taken multiple ways if fortuitous.
Man, that's a GREAT joke.
Thanks for the laugh.
IN THE GRIM DARKNESS OF THE FAR FUTURE THERE IS ONLY GOVERNMENT.

I won’t either, in the primaries. But I will not support any 3rd party like yo desire. Because I never back sure losers.
