He's incoherent, mysoginistic, and changes his position more times than a chess grandmaster - watch this Stephen Colbert video for examples.

The best that can be said about Trump is that he is not Cruz - but that's like preferring Syphilis to AIDS....
Completely agree with all this. Jeb actually has a very, very good record as governor of florida. He got florida out of the red and also managed to grow floridas economy a great deal. Plus he seems far more intelligent than his brother...

Sadly i think george has sullied the bush name quite a bit so bringing george w in to help jeb may largely backfire.

At the moment it seems the two front runners bernie sanders and donald trump are succeeding because theyre promising completely unrealistic things without explaining how they're going to afford/implement it.
