20?? Watch: President Jeb?
As Blogs For Bush points out, the AP has been reporting Jeb Bush's trip to the Tsunami Zone with Colin Powell is to build publicity for the current Florida governor, but I think that it is possibly becuase he is governor of Florida, which was sacked by hurricanes this year, and because he is related to the current President. In any case, there have been whispers of an attempt at a third Bush Administration, but Jeb has emphatically denied any chances of him running in 2008.
It is quite possible that Jeb runs in 2016 (after a two term Frist-Rice Administration?). Not sure if I would vote for him (in the primaries, anyway, as if he gets the nomination, and some liberal democrat is running, it's an automatic vote for Bush). It depends on where the US is at that time, what is policy goals are, and such. But it would be interesting for him to attempt. Good Luck, Jeb.
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has emphatically ruled out a 2008 bid to replace his
brother in the White House, but his profile-raising tour of tsunami-wrecked
countries has rekindled talk of a third Bush presidency.
Florida political experts and Bush family friends said they take the governor at his word - "I'm not going to run for president in 2008," Bush pledged in October - but believe the 51-year-old Bush is leaving his options open for a White House bid in 2012 or beyond.
"He's never ruled it out, and he's a young man," said Charlie Black, political adviser to former President George H.W. Bush, the governor's father.
