Republican Jeb Bush: George H.W. Bush

Ronald Reagan Dept: "They got a lot of things done with bipartisan support, but right now it's just difficult to imagine, Bush, brother of the 43rd U.S. president and son of the 41st, said in a round-table discussion with reporters and editors held by Bloomberg View in Manhattan, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Bush, a moderate believed to be eyeing a run for president in 2016, called the partisanship disturbing, but added he thinks it's "temporary." WASHINGTON - Respected Republican Jeb Bush suggested Monday that neither adored conservative icon Ronald Reagan nor his own father, George H.W. Bush, would have enjoyed much success in today's ultra-conservative, intensely partisan Republican party. "Ronald Reagan would have, based on his record of finding accommodation, finding some degree of common ground, as would my dad they would have a hard time if you define the Republican party and I don't as having an orthodoxy that doesn't allow for disagreement, doesn't allow for finding some common ground."
