Free Beacon ^ | 4/23/15 | Alana Goodman

Cites ‘unorthodox’ views, such as support Common Core and immigration reform, as strength

Jeb Bush said he would not make the same mistakes as Mitt Romney during a private event in New York on Thursday, saying the 2012 Republican nominee was unable to connect with voters in a genuine way.

“[Romney] made it about a referendum on the president’s policies rather than about himself. He didn’t show his heart,” said the former governor of Florida. “He didn’t send a signal that he cared about people, when he did.”

-snip- On immigration, he said he backs “earned legalized status.”

“You would come out from the shadows, you would have a provisional work permit, you would pay taxes,” said Bush.

Jeb may have a heart like the tin woodsman, but he certainly doesn’t have a brain like the scarecrow did.

Maybe Jeb is the “TOTO” of the RINOS. Hey Jeb, you’re not in Florida anymore. Go home!

And obviously he doesn’t care about allowing illegals to stay taking the dreams that belong to Americans.

WTH?? How does one “signal” that you care about people? I hate those Bushes for insisting on this “compassionate conservatism” nonsense. We need a nominee able to articulate and persuade people that conservatism is inherently compassionate, in that it creates widespread opportunity and lifts more people out of poverty than government entitlement programs. Ted Cruz is that man, not Jeb.

Oh get off it, Jeb. The only people you care about are illegals. If you cared about we the people, you would see how much we are suffering all across this nation.

JB is the typical silver spooner. Inherited wealth is a curse. Life is void of the typical challenges that allows one to discover who they are. So a typical response is to become a liberal squish...pandering to the people in an attempt to be liked. The opposite of leadership.

Someone should catch Jeb out.

“As president, do you want to represent all the people?”

Jeb would undoubtedly say, “Yes!”

“Then why are you running to be president of the United States, a job where you *are supposed to* represent *just* the American people? Why not run to be General Party Secretary of the UN, so you can represent ALL the people?”
