Former Republican presidential nominee Bob Dole is throwing his support behind Marco Rubio in the 2016 presidential contest after his early favorite – former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush – dropped out of the race on Saturday. Read what The Washington Post had to say.

Trump suddenly had nice things to say about Bush, the candidate he had hammered so relentlessly when they were rivals.
Trump’s victory in SC on Saturday was vindication for political mavericks whose hunger for an outsider has defined this year’s campaign. “All of a sudden, there was no path for him”.
“I just don’t know what did him in”, Trump, who won South Carolina’s Republican primary election handily on Saturday, said in an interview on CNN on Sunday. She said she thought both men, whom she has long known and admired, couldn’t get through to voters because of all of the attention on Trump.
The Jeb-to-Marco shift will continue on Tuesday as Miami-Dade’s Republican legislative delegation, and several Republicans legislators from across the state who endorsed Jeb Bush, will announce their new allegiance to U.S. Sen.
“We’re going to come up with a great healthcare plan, whether its health care saving accounts, we’re going to get rid of the lines between states, we’re going to have great competitive bidding”, Trump said on “Meet the Press”.
“I don’t understand because I think he’s a very strong Christian man”, Goolsby said.
If Trump wins the Republican nomination and is elected president in the November 8 election, he would be the first USA president in history to have no government experience.
And then – after the results in SC made Mr Rubio his closest challenger – he followed up the claim on a Sunday morning talk show by saying that it was a question for lawyers.
Trump was in Georgia exulting over his latest victory, Cruz headed for Nevada, and Rubio embarked on a Tennessee-Arkansas-Nevada swing.
“In this campaign, I have stood my ground, refusing to bend to the political winds”, he said.
“I think it would be hard”.
While the GOP nominating process is far from over, Trump is clearly the front-runner, and Cruz or Sen.
His exit now is actually good news for the Republican establishment as they try to settle on an alternative to Trump.

According to U.S.A Today, insights about Bush’s run are very much varied, especially for those who believe in his capabilities and the changes he can possibly bring to the United States, but a lot of people believe that he lacks the strength and appeal that a leader should have.
