Bush wants brother to run for president
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Former President George W. Bush said Tuesday that he and his father believe Jeb Bush should run for president but ultimately the former Florida governor must make a decision regardless of any pressure from the family.
“I can tell you I can speak for 41,” Bush said, referring to the 41st president, George H.W. Bush, during the official launch of the 43rd president’s book at his dad’s presidential library center at Texas A&M University. “He ought to run for president. He would make a great president.”
George W. Bush said from speaking with his brother he knows Jeb Bush “doesn’t like the idea of a political class.”
