His brother was a master at the campaign trail (and his wife did very well herself). I know people don't like his policies or him personally, but people should understand how good he was meeting people and doing the campaigning. Its very much like Republicans who don't get President Clinton.
- hga 11y agoHmmm, I'm not sure, I was rather distracted in the 2 presidential campaigns his brother ran, but I don't think those they were masterful. My impression is that he himself is maybe merely good and not at all "hapless" ... and that aspect of politics doesn't do much for me. Heck, the first presidential candidate I rooted for was Nixon ^_^! (When I was 7, but still did so 4 year later when he ran against McGovern.)
- protomyth 11y agoI'm more talking the charisma route - watch him work a crowd. Jeb does not have that. Actually, watching Bush and Clinton work a crowd is pretty interesting since they appear together a lot over the last couple of years. I remember Ford/Carter and I didn't really like Carter since he was sad all the time (I was 6). I did get to see Ross Perot's speech in Fargo, ND for the 1992 campaign. I was amazed at the lack of visible security and his stage presence given how he sounded in interviews.
