Jeb Bush says he's 'actively exploring' 2016 presidential run in typo-ridden Facebook post
Jeb Bush inched closer to a White House bid Tuesday, announcing that he would form a PAC next year "that will help me facilitate conversations with citizens across America to discuss the most critical challenges facing our exceptional nation."
In a Facebook post, Bush said he had spoken with his family and decided to "actively explore the possibility of running for President." But whether due to formatting errors or a reticence to proofread, there are more than a dozen missing spaces in the message that resulted in nonsensical compound words such as "wonderfuladults," "threeprecious," and "expandopportunity."
