WASHINGTON (AP) — Jeb Bush says he’s releasing roughly 250,000 emails from his years as Florida’s governor.
The possible Republican presidential candidate also says he’s working on an electronic book. He told a Florida television station during a Saturday interview that he’ll release the emails ahead of the e-book next year.
Bush has hinted that he would make a decision “in short order” about whether to run for president. He would be the early favorite of the Republican establishment, although many conservatives criticize his positions on immigration and education.
Bush tells ABC’s Miami affiliate, WPLG-TV, that he’s releasing the emails for “transparency” and to “let people make up their mind.”
Bush served as Florida’s governor from 1999 to 2007. He is the son of one president and the brother of another.

It does sound like he’s running - I would never have imagined the country would even remotely consider another Bush for higher office. Maybe the content of those emails isn’t completely flattering and he wants it out now rather than later.
And who gives a rip?
Probably they have been suitably edited for incriminating content, I don’t expect our hawk eyed media
to actually read them. Next we’ll be barraged with the usual “he said she said” style of journalism(!)
instead of anything like real investigative reporting, (are you listening Chuckie T) ?
Not Chuckies job to question. He just reads what’s put in front of him. When I see that name “BUSH” I feel sick to my stomach.
Jebbie’s running and we know that because he’s losing weight. If he could just add a brain . . .
