Just a reminder to Jeb Bush
that even though "Hispanic"
is counted as an ethnicity
and not a race
on the Census
and we don't doubt
that you have Mexican and Venezuelan
"street cred"
via your wife Columba
and a stint as an English teacher
in your mid-20s
respectively
exploring the possibility
of entering the presidential race
has nothing to do
with re-enacting
an ancient Dave Chappelle skit
on your signed
voter-registration form.
When you once said
that you didn't think that
"a party can aspire
to be the majority party
if it's the old white guy party"
you could also
try to stand out
amongst your fellow Republicans
by trying a new tack
of actually being your "own man"
and stop mooching
off your brother George.
