Washington (CNN) -- Jeb Bush is the clear Republican presidential frontrunner, surging to the front of the potential GOP pack following his announcement that he's "actively exploring" a bid, a new CNN/ORC poll found.

He takes nearly one-quarter — 23% — of Republicans surveyed in the new nationwide poll, putting him 10 points ahead of his closest competitor, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who tallied 13%.

Polls are often designed to push a narrative. This one comes after a propaganda campaign in the media for weeks to promote the notion of a Jeb Bush candidacy.

Don’t forget the media. They are, once again, trying to pick our candidate for us.

They sure are and old Jebbie is their boy.

I’m sticking with Ted Cruz and will be working very hard for him.

You are correct Catsrus.

And I agree, I’m with Cruz.

Are we supposed to be impressed with the poll data cause 23% is not enough to win against a Dem.

That number is pitiful. Look at how many Conservatives didn’t vote for Romney compared to Mccain. If I were a RINO I’d be worried about history repeating it self

This is the same playbook that the media used to put John McCain at the top of the ticket.

453 alleged Republicans with inDUHpendents thrown into the mix. Small bogus sample. Results probably a combination of name recognition and the cooked sample. This is a Karl Rove type push poll.

Reported by the sort of news agencies that suppressed details of John Edwards infidelity to keep his campaign alive in 2008 (and to force Hillary into an unwinable 3 way race for delegates).

Impartial election news won’t be coming from Time-Lies, American Pravda, Public Broadcasting, The Nyet Times, ABCDisney, Al Reuters, et al...

I will never forgive Jeb Bush, a.k.a. John Ellis Bush, for being as quiet as a church mouse throughout the entire Obama Administration. There has not been one word of comment about the failures of the Obama Regime.

Nice of the staunchly conservative folks over at CNN to choose our candidate for us.

The entire Bush family has been silent during the past six years.

  The poll results depend on the choices in the poll, the people polled and the people running the poll. I suspect that people running the poll have decided in advance that the winner will be Jeb Bush by a 10 point margin.

more fake polling, shaping public opinion in the way the powers that be want it to go. What? You don’t like Jeb? What’s wrong with you?
