Jeb Bush Promises To Change Washington; Doesn’t Know What “Change” Means

Even before he officially launched his presidential campaign, Jeb Bush swore to the American public that he “was his own man,” meaning that we shouldn’t assume that a Jeb presidency would resemble a W presidency. This was his way of telling us that he won’t make the same mistakes that his brother made, so we shouldn’t be hesitant to put another Bush in office.

All of his “new” ideas sound good when talking to a crowd, but Jeb is apparently unaware of the fact that the public has access to information like never before, and it doesn’t take much time to find out that Jeb is one of the most lobbyist-friendly politicians currently running for president.

Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.
