Ignoring criticism from Donald Trump about speaking Spanish on the campaign trail, Jeb Bush uses his second language in a new video celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month.

The one-minute video, "Todos Somos Americanos" or "We are all Americans," also features a rare appearance from his wife of 41 years, Columba, who's from Mexico.

"I have lived over half my life here," she says in English in the video. "We all have the same interests, the same feelings."

The Republican presidential candidate says in Spanish that he is "proud" that his children and grandchildren are Hispanic. "Hispanics contribute more every day to our culture; they are an integral part of the American dream," Bush says.

If I didn’t know better, I’d think this joker is TRYING to lose.

This SOB deserves to rot in obscurity.

Bush you estupido idiota.

[JustaCowgirl]

“Todos Somos Americanos” or “We are all Americans,”

And that’s just exactly the problem, isn’t it.

Defiantly rubs me the wrong way. Speak English ass$ole, most of us do. Not that I would vote for him anyhow.

[lee martell]

I agree. At this point, Jeb reminds me of Jon Huntsman and his ill fated campaign. It became an inside joke how often Jon would bring up his fluency in Chinese languages. After a certain point, the reaction is BFD, now let’s hear your presidential proposals.

[a fool in paradise]

Reconquista.

Every time some sucker asks you to defend your position against illegal immigration, ask them why Mexico should be permitted to have a harder stance on it than us.

[AAABEST]

One must wonder exactly who Yeb is trying to reach. AMERICANS who can't speak f---ing English? This is just going to piss everyone else off.

He really is terminally st00pit.

[Lurkinanloomin]

¡Yeb! is running to be President of North Mexico

That is what you will get if you vote for him

[Menehune56]

Non citizens perhaps?

[Vermont Lt]

Tell Mexico we will do a best of three. We are already up 1:0.

[jimbo123]

Does Jeb and his donors think Spanish is the official language of New Hampshire, Iowa and South Carolina?

[uncitizen]

They (the establishment) have decided to continue to push the things that they originally had planned to push on us. Instead of backing off because of the Trump movement they are doubling down on these things. And they think they will eventually break us down. But they are WRONG!

[RginTN]

I speak no spanish...is this supposed to help me support immigrants who don’t speak English???????

[wetgundog]

Hit the road South taco breath.

“Hola, que tal? Bien, y tu? Este es mi amigo Ramon. La frontera esta abierta..”
