After months of anticipation, Jeb Bush officially announced he is running for President on Monday.
During his announcement speech in Miami Bush said:Our country is on a very bad course. And the question is: What are we going to do about it? The question for me is: What am I going to do about it? And I have decided. I am a candidate for president of the United States.
Bush relied on his record as Florida’s governor throughout the speech. He also said he will “take nothing and no one for granted” and will run with his heart.

He promised he will stick to his principles and will not change his message to suit the polls.
During the last few months Jeb has tried to distance himself from his family and claimed he was his own man with his own ideas. Notably his brother, George W. Bush and his father, George H.W. Bush were absent from the event.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.
Right after his announcement he sent out an email to supporters. He further explained why he was running and talked about the current administrations failed policies. Bush stated:
Under their watch, the economic recovery has been the slowest ever, debt has ballooned, and the American dream has been put out of reach for millions of families.
Friend, America deserves better. You deserve better, and I think you know it.
He also said:
Together, we will expand opportunity for all, put government on the side of free enterprise and free people, and bring back American exceptionalism and leadership across the globe.
