Jeb or 'Heb'? Jeb Bush Marked 'Hispanic' On 2009 Voter Registration
Jeb or 'Heb'? Jeb Bush Marked 'Hispanic' On 2009 Voter Registration
NBC NEWS
Is it Jeb or "Heb?" Former Florida governor and likely Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush is quite the topic on social media after a New York Times article reported he had marked "Hispanic" in a 2009 Florida voter registration application.
On Twitter, his name Jeb quickly became "Heb;" the letter "j" is pronounced "h" in Spanish.

Jeb Bush Listed Himself as ‘Hispanic’ on Voter Form

There is little doubt that Jeb Bush possesses strong credentials for appealing to Hispanic voters.
He speaks fluent Spanish. His wife, Columba Bush, was born in Mexico. For two years in his 20s, he lived in Venezuela, immersing himself in the country’s culture.
Mr. Bush, a former Florida governor and likely presidential candidate, was born in Texas and hails from one of America’s most prominent political dynasties. But on at least one occasion, it appears he got carried away with his appeal to Spanish-speaking voters and claimed he actually was Hispanic.
In a 2009 voter-registration application, obtained from the Miami-Dade County Elections Department, Mr. Bush marked Hispanic in the field labeled “race/ethnicity.”
A Bush spokeswoman could offer no explanation for the characterization. However, Mr. Bush took to Twitter late on Monday morning to call the situation a mistake.
Carolina Lopez, deputy supervisor of elections for Miami-Dade, said voters must submit hard copies of applications with a signature before receiving a voter information card confirming their address and polling location. According to the Florida Division of Elections, the application requires an original signature because the voter is swearing or affirming an oath.
Florida law requires that the signature, driver’s license number and social security number be redacted before being publicly released.
While Mr. Bush’s claiming to be Hispanic may have been a careless mistake, confusion over heritage is no laughing matter during a campaign season.
During her Senate campaign in 2012, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts was accused of misrepresenting herself as Native American. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has had to explain his birth in Canada.
As for Mr. Bush, whom Univision called a “Hispanic candidate” this year, his outreach to Hispanic voters is unlikely to be deterred. With any luck, it will not go to his head again.

Of course, now they're saying it was an accident. Hmmm, intentional or unintentional?

Well, I think this disqualifies him to be President of the United States. A voter registration card is a fairly simple document, and if a candidate for President of the United States can't complete and sign that document under threat of perjury without making a "mistake", then we certainly can't trust him or rely upon him to complete and sign the many official and far more complex documents associated with the task of serving our nation as President of the United States.

FL Dems: Jeb May Have Committed Felony by Marking ‘Hispanic’ on Voter Registration Fo
FL Dems: Jeb May Have Committed Felony by Marking ‘Hispanic’ on Voter Registration Form
by Breitbart News
6 Apr 2015
On Monday, the Florida Democratic Party said former Florida Governor Jeb Bush may have committed a felony when he identified himself as “Hispanic” on a 2009 voter registration form.
As The Hill noted, Florida Democrats are referring to Florida’s current voter registration form that reads, “It is a 3rd degree felony to submit false information.” Bush would have violated the law in question if he “willfully” submitted false information. The New York Times reported on Monday that Bush checked “Hispanic” on his 2009 voter registration form.
Bush Tweeted on Monday that he had made a mistake and Bush’s spokeswoman told media outlets, “It’s unclear where the paperwork error was made. The Governor’s family certainly got a good laugh out of it. He is not Hispanic.”
Maximum penalties for submitting false voter registration information in Florida are “$5,000 and/or 5 years in prison.”

How do they even get away with asking that question on a voter registration form?
