Jeb: Trump's sister is pro-choice, don't vote for Donald!

[136or142]

I'm as snobbish and elitist as anyone else, but Jeb graduated PBK. I think he's all right.

The thing you have to pay for? I know I didn't waste that money. Wow, let me pay $100 and get these words on my inevitable Wikipedia page! Jeb is so out of touch. (No offense to anyone on here who did; this is anti-Jeb sentiment)

Seriously amazing he can't translate that Latin American Studies Degree into any Hispanic votes against DONALD TRUMP!

Is that true?  I would have thought of the relatively small percentage of Hispanic Americans who support the Republican Party, that most would support Jeb Bush.

I will say one positive thing about Jeb Bush: at least he doesn't pander to the considerable anti intellectual wing of his party, which was one of defining traits of his brother (who is probably the only anti intellectual candidate to ever win the Republican Party nomination in modern times.)  And even more so, Jeb Bush even basically admits that he considers himself to be a 'wonk' if not an intellectual.

Reagan wasn't very intellectual either, though conservative intellectuals loved him.

Reagan was quite bright, though he wasn't an intellectual. But, I don't believe he pandered to the anti intellectual wing of his party, which was what my point was.  I don't remember it very well, but if anybody in the 1980 Republican Presidential Primary did, it would probably have been Phil Crane.

John Anderson actually was an intellectual.

No, they're anti abortion, they're not 'pro life.' Both of them have shown repeatedly the only lives they care about are the 'haves and the have mores.'

I don't care what they're private religious views are, or even what they say they are as opposed to what they may actually be.  I certainly won't attack them for their private religious beliefs, and, in the case of George W Bush, he's said that his religion helped him to overcome challenges he had in life, so good on him for that.  By the same token, I don't think that those who do not have religious views or even believe in God should be attacked.

However, when it comes to how their religious views have shaped their public policy outlook, I think this cartoon more or less sums it up:
