I realize that this may be a bit premature for this election cycle, but it does directly relate to the RKBA. Jeb Bush is running for the republican presidential nomination, and he has just secured the endorsement of Michael Bloomberg - no friend of the 2nd Amendment.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government ... candidate/
On April 9, Michael Bloomberg delcared his friend Jeb Bush the best GOP candidate for president.
To be precise, Bloomberg cited Bush and Hillary Clinton as the only truly “worthy” candidates, in his view.
According to The New York Times, Bloomberg was attending a party in his honor after receiving an honorary knighthood from from Queen Elizabeth II. During the party, at which Bloomberg said he had “always admired the sophistication and fortitude of the British people,” the former mayor also singled out Bush and Clinton as the only two candidates for him.

So if you find yourself having trouble deciding who you ought to support in 2016, just look to Bloomberg, who opposes your right to keep and bear arms, your freedom to make your own dietary choices, and the use of coal for energy. He also supported Obama’s immigration push.
Jeb is his man.

Interested in seeing how some of the old guard GOP folks respond to this. I have pretty much come to the conclusion the old guard middle of the road republicans have already decided Bush is the man that will get the nod.
I sure hope they are wrong as I don't think we can continue down the road with Hillary or Jeb running the show. We need someone that will lead the way in getting our financial house in order and restore Liberty and limited government. Neither of these fit the bill in my opinion.

Is Jeb just another RINO?
Being endorsed by a rabid anti-gun guy doesn't encourage me to vote for him.
Yeah, I know, some might say that's a single issue stance, well yes it is.
So what?
Middle of the road guys = Mediocre at best and sometimes far worse...

I don't care what Jeb Bush's record is on the 2A. We don't want him as the GOP candidate.

If Jeb gets the nomination, I will reluctantly vote for him, but would much rather see Rubio or Cruz get it barring another late entry. Fiorina also looks good, but don't know enough about her yet.

A far left lunatic endorses a semi-left RINO. Just what we need.

That's some cause for concern. The former nanny-mayor has got to know that the knee-jerk reaction from the right would be to rip his choice to shreds. So the question is what is it about Jeb that the nanny doesn't like or even may fear???
