Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is to deliver what aides call an “optimistic, conservative vision for the future” in his first unpaid speech since declaring his interest in a bid for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. […]
Wednesday’s speech is the first in a series of stops his aides call his “Right to Rise” tour, borrowing from his economic mantra and the name of the political action committee he formed in December. Bush’s speech, aides said, is aimed at underscoring his desire to reinvigorate the middle class, which he argues has languished despite the ongoing economic recovery. Conservative economic policies, he says, would provide incentive for middle-income families to reach higher income potential.
Although Bush offered few specifics on his vision in excerpts released before the speech, school choice is an issue Bush has long supported as a way forward for struggling families. In his second term as Florida’s chief executive, Bush enacted the nation’s first school voucher program, aimed at allowing families in failing school districts to choose charter and private schools at state cost. …

I have a conservative position for him to tout.
It’s what Washington advocated: no hereditary monarchy...or in this case, oligarchy.
That goes for him and the unqualified wife of the former impeached individual.
Both Barry and JEB boast about their plans to “help the middle class”.
But with their next breath, they talk about raising our taxes and dumping millions of “undocumented immigrants” in our laps.
The Uniparty. No thanks.
El Jefe Jeb is trying to be a conservative?
He doesn’t want conservatives to support him!
Here’s a “policy” to “aid the middle class”.
STOP ROBBING US
He means middle class illegals, right?
Bush missed the point. The middle class has languished because of the policies of big government liberals and big government conservatives. Government is always harmful and should only get involved in our lives when failure to act is even more harmful (and even then only when government action is constitutional).
Asspress suddenly loves little Jebby.
I’ve had enough of the bushes to last my lifetime.
The best Jeb can do for the Conservative middle class is to get off our backs.
Ease up on the taxes and find some OTHER group to hate!!!
Save it for the illegals Jebbie.
“He”: JEBObama. Right.
George III: `Right to Rise’.
Our government appears to be at war with those of us who pay their bills.
He was a very good governor of Florida and we prospered under him.
I’m just not sure he’s aggressive enough to get any conservative positions through. He’s much more outspoken and confident than either his brother or his father, but he’s still a Bush...gentlemen to the death. Their own death, that is, since they never fight back, and the Dems know they have nothing to fear from them.
Jeb Bush needs to quit mudding the waters. He needs to home and stay there. We don’t need another RINO!!!
As long as illegal imigrants can continue to enter the USA and get citizen benefits, nothing will help the middle class.
Any politician that has to TELL you he or one of “his plans” is conservative he or it isn’t.
