With Hillary Clinton bringing her husband (and 42nd US president) Bill Clinton on the campaign trail with her in New Hampshire, Jeb Bush may soon follow suit with his presidential kin. The former Florida governor appeared on Fox & Friends Tuesday morning, and host Brian Kilmeade asked whether he would follow Clinton’s lead and recruit his brother, former president George W. Bush, to boost his struggling campaign for the Republican presidential nomination.
“Yeah,” Bush replied, “it is something to consider. ‘Cause he is very popular.”
At the time of his departure from office, George W. Bush held an approval rating of 22 percent. But as the economic and foreign policy travails of his presidency have faded in the national memory, the elder Bush brother has gained in popularity, with a slim majority of Americans holding a favorable opinion of him as of last summer.
