No matter how hard Jeb tries to distance himself from his brother's policies and the Iraq War, he won't be able to. The Tampa Bay Times has recovered an email exchange between Jeb and a Florida resident that warned Jeb Bush to try and stop his brother from invading Iraq as it would affect his political future and make GWB be known as the worst president ever for this war.
The email was written in 2003 and his foreign policy was all in for the Invasion of Iraq.
It is now documented in black and white.
Let the digging begin as more will surface. Mama Bush was correct when she whined about Jeb running. This run will be hell on the Bush Family.. Please proceed Governor.

Jeb Bush in a speech Wednesday stepped gingerly around the Iraq war, for obvious reasons. But it's worth looking back to when the war began and the majority of Americans were in support.
On March 17, 2003 -- three days before the U.S. invasion of Iraq would begin -- Bush got an email from a Tampa woman named Jan Fowler, who had corresponded with him before.
“For the benefit of Florida citizens who depend on your leadership and US citizens who are governed by your brother, I am appealing to you to stop this war, if it is in your power to do.”
Fowler concluded that the war “will make George W go down as the worst president in history and you will suffer for that too. Please respond.”
Bush did.
“I respectfully disagree with you," he wrote. "I think our President is right on track. His speech tonight made our position clear and I am gratified that 60% of the American public agrees. I truly respect your point of view but don’t believe that we are on the wrong track.”
