Jeb Bush Formally Announces 2016 White House Bid

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush formally announced his candidacy for US president on June 15 in Miami. In his speech, the younger brother and son of two former US presidents focused on making over and “fixing” Washington.

“We will take command of our future once again in this country … We will take Washington – the static capital of this dynamic country – and turn it out of the business of causing problems,” said Bush.

The Republican also gave a preview of how he would campaign. “I will campaign as I would serve, going everywhere, speaking to everyone, keeping my word, facing the issues without flinching, and staying true to what I believe.” Credit: YouTube/Jeb Bush
