Senior Bush plugs Jeb for president 'someday'
Wednesday, June 1, 2005 Posted: 9:48 AM EDT (1348 GMT)


Former President George Bush and wife Barbara spoke about the Bush political dynasty with Larry King.


(CNN) -- Florida Gov. Jeb Bush would be "awfully good" in the job of president, but the timing isn't right, his father and former President George H.W. Bush told CNN Tuesday.

Asked if he would want Jeb to run, Bush said, "Someday I would, yes."

Bush, who was president from 1989-1993, appeared on CNN's "Larry King Live" with former first lady Barbara, from the family compound in Kennebunkport, Maine.

Jeb Bush is in his second gubernatorial term, which ends in January 2007. His brother George ends his second presidential term in January 2009 and cannot run again.

"He'd be awfully good," the elder Bush said. "This guy's smart, big and strong. Makes the decisions. And you know, not without controversy, but he's led that state."

1. Who better to keep an eye on poppy's interests around the world?
Poppy's father, Prescott, provided cover for Nazi financiers during World War II (documented fact) at his New York bank DURING the time of the Holocaust! Imagine that!
Is there anything this Bush group can't get away with?
And guess who bitterly opposed the creation of the Food and Drug Administration that now monitors the safety of our food and drugs?
Yes, it was poppy's poppy.
It's all so quaint.

3. Dr Frist - was quoted by Al Franken
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 04:11 PM by Coastie for Truth
as saying that Jeb is a very sick man - that poor Jeb shows early signs of Parkinsons Disease and Gout, and is in early stage congestive heart failure, and that he has severe hemorrhoids. Dr Frist has recommended complete bed rest until after the 2008 Elections - then Jeb will be "Good as New."

Dr. Frist made these diagnoses with his famous web cam that he used to remotely examine and diagnose Terri Schiavo.

If there's any question about Jeb's health, I think two impartial doctors should check him out - like Bill Frist MD and Howard Dean MD.

4. How 'bout Neil?
Do you think Bush also wants his other son Neil to be President? Does he want a Bush dynasty like Joe Kennedy did?
