Jeb Bush announced on Tuesday that he is “exploring” a 2016 presidential run, eyes are now on another Republican presidential contender from Florida – Marco Rubio. The 43-year-old senator was considered to be a frontrunner for the 2016 Republican presidential candidacy, but the tides seem to have changed now that Bush has formally declared that he will consider campaigning. Bush and Rubio live mere miles apart, with Bush in Coral Gables and Rubio in Miami, and Rubio even considers the former governor a mentor and a “friend”. SEE ALSO: Marco Rubio and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen banned from Nicaragua This may complicate matters for Rubio, as both he and Bush share many of the same supporters and financial backers. Competing with his mentor may not deter Rubio from running, however. “Marco has a lot of respect for Governor Bush, and believes that he would be a formidable candidate,” Alex Constant, Rubio’s spokesman, said in a statement after Bush’s announcement Tuesday. “However, Marco’s decision on whether to run for President or re-election will be based on where he can best achieve his agenda to restore the American Dream – not on who else might be running.” According to The Miami Herald, if Bush and Rubio were to run against each other today, Bush would come out as the clear winner. Recent polls of Florida voters have shown that Bush would pull 34 percent of the GOP votes, while Rubio would only pull 10 percent.   While Rubio has strong support among Florida Republicans, it seems like more voters would choose the more experienced 61-year-old former governor to vie for the presidency. Both Bush and Rubio are deemed desirable candidates for many Republican voting groups in Florida, in particular the South Florida Cuban Americans.

We couldn’t lose either way.” Rubio has yet to confirm whether or not he will run for presidency, even though the dynamics of the race have shifted since Bush’s announcement. The Republican Party feels that Bush, who has presidential blood in his veins (he is the son of former President George H. W. Bush and the brother of George W. Bush), is one of the strongest presidential candidates because of his ability to reach out to the Hispanic population. Bush’s wife, Columba, is a native of Mexico and he is fluent in Spanish. Many Republicans believe that he may be the GOP’s best shot at appealing to the nation’s growing Hispanic population, which currently makes up 11 percent of all eligible voters and trends strongly Democratic.

Jeb Bush announced Tuesday that he will “actively explore the possibility of running for president of the United States.” Bush, who’s a Republican, made the announcement via a Facebook post. He wrote that over Thanksgiving he “talked about the future of our nation” with his family. “As a result of these conversations and thoughtful consideration of the kind of strong leadership I think America needs, I have decided to actively explore the possibility of running for President of the United States,” Bush said. SEE ALSO: Are Americans ready for another President Bush? He also wrote on the Facebook post that he will create a leadership political action committee in January to help “facilitate conversations with citizens across America to discuss the most critical challenges facing our exceptional nation.” He said the main purpose of the committee will be “to support leaders, ideas and policies that will expand opportunity and prosperity for all Americans.” “In the coming months, I hope to visit with many of you and have a conversation about restoring the promise of America,” Bush added. Reaction on Facebook was mostly positive, with one person saying it was the “Best news of the week!” and another referring to Bush as “Mr. Future President.” Bush is the son of former President George H.W. Bush and the brother of George W. Bush. He was governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is married to Columba, a native of Mexico. Several media outlets have reported that Jeb Bush’s publicity-shy wife was reluctant about him running for president. Bush had repeatedly said he would decide by the end of this year based on whether his wife and family are on board, as well as whether he can run “joyfully.” SEE ALSO: The private life of Jeb Bush’s Mexican wife Columba Bush’s announcement that he will explore the possibility of running for president came a day after he delivered the commencement address at the University of South Carolina. During that speech, he gave no indication about running for president. The announcement also came two days after Bush announced he planned to release about 250,000 emails as well as upcoming e-book that document his time as governor. The move is seen as a way for him to remind Americans of some of the things he did as governor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHpv-Jjy-vA
