As governor of Florida, Jeb Bush used the Spanish word presidente instead of the English word President while communicating with one of his aides to describe Abe Lincoln, according to decade-old emails reported by the Washington Post.
A day before South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley decided to remove the confederate flag from the state capitol grounds following the racially motivated shooting in a Charleston church, a Washington Post blog reported about how GOP presidential candidate and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush handled the confederate flag debate while he was governor of the Sunshine state.
In his report, the Posts Ed OKeefe explained that Bush quietly removed a flag from the Florida capitol grounds and decided not to support a proclamation for a Confederate History Month, but after news reports broke over the flags removal, Bush received emails expressing disappointment in his decision.
One of the emails OKeefe highlighted ironically had Bush using the word presidente instead of president which wasnt discussed in OKeefes report, but Bushs choice of wording is ironic in light of his stance on immigration with many Republicans criticizing Bush by arguing that he isnt tough enough on that issue.
In fact, a recent poll out of New Hampshire suggested immigration would be a huge hurdle for Bush.
A Suffolk University Poll revealed more than eight out of 10 people surveyed did not agree with Bushs statement that illegal immigration is an act of love, as USA Today reported, noting that more than six out of 10 of those polled disagreed strongly.

All Hail the Dauphin, Jeb the Inevitable.
Whose campaign mascot is a pander bear.
Phew. He really doesn’t want to be President, does he?
Oh No!!!!!!!!! My stars!
Jeb! is on record: he doesn’t think Americans are capable of building a great nation anymore. He is on record favoring “aspirational youth” from south of the border to come into the United States to build us back up as a great nation - in other words, to duplicate what they have so successfully accomplished south of the border.
And just for the record, I am not a Jebist.
J.E.Bush is an idiot I am sorry to say.
And this fool is the front runner in polling right now, unbelievable.
"He has my vote"
If one believes those polls. If he is the front runner, thats because they polled mostly democrats.
Stars are on the Confederate battle flag, which is racist, which means you are a racist.
He needs to seek help.
Jeb’s campaign is dead.
Goes along with the thread about him speaking Spanish at home. Wake up people.
