Stephen Colbert: Well, the right to have an individual firearm to protect yourself is a national document, in the Constitution, so shouldn’t the way that is also be applied be national?

Jeb Bush: No. Not necessarily… There’s a Tenth Amendment to our country, the Bill of Rights has a Tenth Amendment that powers are given to the states to create policy, and the federal government is not the end all and be all. That’s an important value for this country, and it’s an important federalist system that works quite well.

Guess he will donate a lot to the NRA-ILA and get a 'mea culpa' speech spot at their 2016 Convention like they did for Carson.

I remember close to 30 years ago an editorial in a gun mag and I don't remember which one or who the author was but it dealt with a national concealed carry law. The author said that although it sounds good initially it is to be avoided because it will set a precedent that could impact any future attacks on roe v wade using the 10th amendment.

now we will have to sit through a week of "Experts" telling us what he really meant

I think Jeb is determined not to get the Republican nomination. His foot is in his mouth so much, he must suffer from athlete's tongue.

I though it was called Foot-in-Mouth Disease.

They're likely to just call it Jeb-itis after this election is over...

Jeb is trying hard to show himself as a more moderate Republican, thus more electable than Trump and Carson. This assumes that Repubs actually care about picking a candidate that doesn't make moderates like me throw up a little just for seeing him on TV.

I think the Republicans feel burned by Romney. They were told he was electable, which turned-out not to be true.

Yet some Republicans are mentioning a draft Romney for president movement.

At this point, why not? If that doesn't highlight the sad state of Republican offerings, nothing will.

I think that's another draft he's ineligible for...

And if he was, he'd just run off and hide in a French winery again.
