I’m a pretty competitive guy.

After Bush blasted Trump’s “lack of seriousness” on national security issues, Hewitt asked Bush if he’d support and campaign for Trump if Trump wins the nomination.
“As a father, I have felt the heartbreak of drug abuse”. But the dominating topic of the day is guns, as President Barack Obama rolls out his new executive actions aimed to curb gun violence. Bush’s campaign has gotten some support from backers of U.S. Sen. “Let’s start solving problems”.
The two chat eagerly about NASA; Bush tells him about the awe of a space launch. After months of Bush telling that story, the campaign admitted Monday that the story wasn’t accurate, saying Bush was “mistaken” and had “conflated” other stories.
The arrest was a public spectacle for Bush, then a first-term governor of Florida planning to seek re-election.
He says that painful past experience has enlightened him about the plight of others. His timing might have been better to release the Jeb Bush earlier, when he looked like more formidable in the GOP primary, and the Hillary book later, but such is life.
Manchester resident Mike Whitten had a different opinion of Bush.
As he concluded, Bush turned back to Emanuel: “I think we need a serious candidate and I want your vote”.
“[Trump] is a buddy of the Clintons”, Bush said. “He really showed that he cared about one-on-one interaction with voters”, he added.
“Make it clear that this is not acceptable”, said Bush. Dawson’s clearly hoping that will rouse the ex-president from his political somnolence.
But Bush has a lot of ground to make up with less than five weeks to go.
Bush said he is making the case that he is the best Republican bet to defeat Clinton, the Democratic front-runner, telling MSNBC’s Morning Joe that he has “a conservative record that brought people towards our cause rather than push them away”. “In fact, for a guy who’s pretty cool, calm and collected, I like a president who shows his heart”. “I have family members in recovery”.
“I give them out to kids”.
But for Dawson, the biggest reason for George W. Bush to wade into the race is to take down Trump, whose rise has confounded the party’s traditional pro-business base.
“When anybody disparages people with disabilities, it sets me off”, he said.

He said he had asked Noelle’s permission before speaking publicly about it. She is now 38 and in recovery.
