Speaker John A. Boehner of Ohio said Monday he is “nudging” former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush to run for the Republican nomination to be president.
Though he stopped short of endorsing anyone early in the process, Boehner named Bush, son of President George H. W. Bush and brother of President George W. Bush, as a favorite.
“We’ve got a lot of good candidates out there. If you look historically, our best candidates have come from the ranks of governors, of former governors, and yes, Jeb Bush is my friend, I think he’d make a great president, and I’ve been nudging him for some time,” Boehner said while speaking in San Antonio to a luncheon sponsored by several area business groups.
Boehner also was asked about Ohio Gov. John Kasich, whom he called a friend and golfing partner, but he said he would not feel any obligation to support him simply because he is from the same state.
“We’ll let them all sort it out. I’m not endorsing anybody,” he said.

"We’ve got a lot of good [1] candidates out there."
As the English language has evolved considerably during the last few years the words don't have the same meaning as they used to. Therefore the meaning of the word "good" needs a bit explaining.
[1] Corrupt, pedophile, murderers or otherwise black-mailable, morally decadent malleable excuses of human beings.

Stress test: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie says it’d be “stressful” to face former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in a Republican presidential primary. “You like to run against people that you don’t like,” the embattled New Jersey governor said. “I consider Jeb a friend. And he’s been a wonderful friend to me.” Running against a friend wouldn’t be Christie’s only 2016 stress. As Politico writes, the George Washington Bridge scandal has caused a number of donors who were open to his potential candidacy to have doubts.
