As speculation about whether a third Bush will run for president in 2016, people are starting to wonder what exactly it is that Jeb is doing now.
Bush, the former governor of Florida, has four businesses registered to the same address in the Miami suburb of Coral Gables that don’t appear to have conducted any business anywhere, according to an investigation by ThinkProgress. Bush also has a consulting firm, Jeb Bush & Associates, registered to that address.
But while the four companies’ purpose is a mystery, Bush’s other activities have been more public. Some of his business ties are with companies that might give him some of the same problems faced by Mitt Romney in his 2012 quest for the White House. Another company based at his Coral Gables office, Britton Hill Holdings, has a private equity deal with a Chinese company to acquire a firm involved in shale oil and gas shipping, according to Bloomberg.
Bush is also on the board of Tenet Healthcare, from which he has received more than $2 million in cash and stock since joining it in 2007. Tenet has “paid more than $1 billion over the last decade to settle a series of fraud, overbilling, kickback, and other allegations by its biggest customer: the federal government,” according to Don Michak of the Journal Inquirer in Connecticut.

As long as he doesn't collect unemployment, welfare, medicaid or have an EBT card I don't care what he does for a living!
As long as he isn't making a living as POTUS I'm comfortable. It does sound like he's following that great Bush tradition of a mostly illegal living, though.
As long he unscrews everything barry screwed up!
Sounds more qualified than the current clown.
PLEASE can we choose someone who has a fighting chance against Hillary???
If the republicans put him up it means they are rooting for hillary. I will not vote for another bush or any other establishment rino.
He's a RINO. Promotes Common Core and much too liberal. NO to Jeb.
