Jeb Bush: Voters Have to Stop Rewarding Reality TV 'Racist Language,' 'Bad Behavior'

Wednesday at Elmhurst College in Oak Brook, IL, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) called on voters to stop rewarding politicians who used derogatory characterizations “to make themselves look better.”

Bush said, “Here is the dirty secret, politics is embedded in our culture. We are our culture. The interaction of all of us together defines our culture and our culture is more vulgar then it once was. Our culture allows people to act in ways that thirty years ago would never be allowed in politics. Our culture is more reality TV based, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that our politics is that way.”

Here's another dirty little secret, "Racism" is ingrained in us also.
Way back in the 1860's whites didn't want blacks to be slaves, but they also don't want them living next door, marrying their daughters, being a manager over white men.

Hypocrite Yankees!

What % of the primary vote did Jeb get?

He's going on a book tour, I guess. "I got beat by a reality TV star"

Not the time for Low Energy Jeb to make the scene.

Prayers to all in the Bush family. These are trying times (passing of Ms. Bush and now President Bush in the hospital) and sometimes being with family (rather than on the road) is a bit more important and humbling.

Yes I hear Jeb was great in Florida - what happened? He is so weak now. Feeling are hurt so he is striking out. We all know he is talking about President Trump. When did the Bush family become so friendly with Obama and Clinton's. Thought Bush's were Republican. As far as Hogan and MD. It is a total loss because Hogan is a demorat.
