Synopsis

Jeb Bush: Aggressive Conservatism in Florida describes the rise of John Ellis (Jeb) Bush, the second son of former President George H.W. Bush, to political power in Florida. It examines the conservative theory that guided his behavior when he was elected and the aggressive manner in which he used the Office of Governor to pursue his goals. The book offers insight into his motivations and competencies, provides an analysis of the extent to which his self proclaimed revolution achieved its goals, and asks what the revolution meant for Florida. The authors own views naturally structure the analysis provided, but readers are invited to examine his argument and to propose alternative explanations for the Governors actions and the policy outcomes of his administration.
