The Bush sure feel like they own the president seat,
Jeb Bush, a scion of the most recognizable family in Republican politics who fashioned an image as a sober-minded conservative truth-teller while governor of Florida, is running for president.
Bush made his formal announcement Monday afternoon here in his adopted hometown during an appearance at Miami Dade College. His candidacy comes after a week-long European tour and months of intensive behind-the-scenes political maneuvering that erased long-standing doubts about his White House ambitions.
"And I have decided. I am a candidate for president of the United States," Bush said Monday at his campaign launch event.
The launch sets John Ellis Bush, 62, the second son of former President George H.W. Bush and younger brother of former President George W. Bush, on a potentially historic course that would confirm his family's standing as America's pre-eminent political dynasty, rivaled only by the Kennedys in their fame and cross-generational power.
But it's clear Bush's campaign sees his famous family can be both a blessing and a curse. Looking on as Jeb Bush jumps into the race Monday will be matriarch Barbara Bush, the former first lady and already mother of one former president, as well as a slew of other siblings, his children and more extended family.
If his campaign is victorious, the Bush clan will become the only American family to have elected three of their own to the highest office in the land.
