TWO IN THE BUSH IS NOT WORTH A JEB

If Jeb Bush were elected President, it would be the first time in American history that both a father and two sons, occupied the oval office. It would thereby establish an elitist lineage resembling a monarchial system as opposed to our Democratic Republic. 

This reason alone should be enough for voters to reject Jeb Bush's candidacy for president, but read on, for there are far more reasons and many more storm clouds over this ex-Governor of Florida.

Two names in Jeb Bush's past should make anyone think twice about handing him the oval office, Miguel Recarey and Claudio Osorio. These two men have more than tangential ties to Jeb Bush and both are criminals that defrauded American taxpayers of millions.

Miguel Recarey had an HMO company called International Medical Centers in Florida and was fond of his connection to both the Cuban mafia and politicians. In the 1980's while Jeb's father was vice President under Reagan, young Jeb Bush was in the real estate business, one of his partners was Miguel Recarey.

Recarey wanted a waiver renewed to allow his company to receive more than 50 percent of its revenue from Medicare. Jeb Bush used his influence by calling the then Health and Human Services Secretary Margaret Heckler on his behalf. Heckler confirms Bush called her, and yes, Recarey did receive his waiver, and by the way, absconded with millions of taxpayer dollars.

Claudio Osorio owned a house construction company called  Inna Vida Holdings LLC that proposed to build hurricane and earthquake resistant homes. In 2007 Osorio  asked ex-Governor Jeb Bush to sit as a board member and a consultant to his company and Bush readily agreed. Indeed, Bush's face on the company, lend it the air of legitimacy, that allowed Osorio to swindle investors of their money. 

General Wesley Clark was also asked, but after a simple check of Osorio's background, that showed problems, Wesley Clark declined. Osorio was a known entity in Florida, for in fact his other company CHS Electronics, was not only bankrupt but had been involved in a class action lawsuit for securities fraud. 

The red flags over the legitimacy of Osorio and his company were not just beneath the surface, they were flying in the air for any mildly skeptical person to check. Jeb Bush earned a 468,000 between 2007 until 2010 from Inna Vida Holdings LLC until, yes, Osorio and his company was investigated and exposed as a Ponzi scheme. OPIC (Overseas Private Investment Corporation) a federally backed agency lost 3 million dollars when Osorio convinced them after Haiti's earthquake, to supply him loans so his phony company could build his imaginary homes. Claudio Osorio is now sitting in a federal prison.

As for Jeb Bush? Well, he paid back 270,000 of the 468,000 he made under this con man without any explanation of where and why the 198,000 balance of money disappeared off the radar screen. He claimed to have been just a victim to both of these men's con artist thievery. 

Well, if we believe Jeb Bush, then he is the most gullible scam victim to ever hold public office. He also would be presenting himself as brick wall dumb and dumber for instead of learning his lesson with the first scam in the 1980's (Recarey) one would think he would have never aligned himself with another swindler (Osorio) more than 20 years later.

However, if we don't believe Jeb Bush, then he is as crooked as the many snakes in Washington and either way, not fit to hold office. Crooked, stupid or both, this Bush should be ashamed to run for President, and the GOP backers should be equally hailed as scam artists.

The state of American politics is shabby, secretive and salacious considering that two crooks Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush are vying for the highest office of the land and are backed by their parties.

The public is kept in the dark about the truth of these candidates backgrounds, and when the true facts start to bubble up like lava to the surface, the liberal media is quick to extinguish the flames as the GOP scrambles to sweep dirt under its rug. 

Jeb Bush is not just a moderate Republican with a dubious background, he holds liberal positions outright and unapologetic, on immigration and federal education. He would make the illegal immigration crises worse in our country, by publicly reiterating his statement that illegal entry over our borders is an "act of love."

His support of Common Core, shows his duplicity in undermining States' Rights and believing as liberals believe in big federal government control. Let alone his lack of concern for the constitutionality of the Department of education even being a valid government agency, which is a conservative principle.

Yet he claims to have been a true conservative Governor of Florida, yet we know the koolaid flavor is orange and the GOP rhetoric makes voters turn ashen in disgust. 

It is important to note that Americans are waking up to the shenanigans of both political parties. Unlike decades earlier, when these type of candidates had more money and money was the only political game that won elections, politically awake Americans are ignoring the party's marquis choice. The people want a genuine American President not a party puppet that allows the country to continue to decline from federal tyranny.  

Jeb Bush should not emerge from the primary, especially when facing off with the likes of Ted Cruz and Scott Walker along with many other bona fide conservatives running for President. The days of the RINO establishment GOP's hold on Americans is fast waning. 

Americans are hungry for a President that loves our Constitution, loves our free enterprise system, loves our federalism and loves our country.

The bird of opportunity to restore our country economically, culturally and internationally is at hand, and not worth beating around the Bush.
