New Hampshire could be make-or-break for Jeb Bush

   Though he has not formally announced his candidacy, Jeb Bush seems to be one of the front runners for the Republican nominee. It will not be that easy for him though because the Republican party has become more conservative over time and there are many more worthy opponents that will be running against him. New Hampshire seems to be a very important part of Jeb Bush's push for the candidacy. With the Democratic primary seeming to be an easy victory for Hillary Clinton, Bush wants to show that he will stand a good chance against her. More independents will become interested in the Republican primaries so Jeb Bush's moderate stance could help. Showing that he can do well in a state like New Hampshire will prove that he is the best candidate to go up against Hillary Clinton.
   I feel that it is very important for Jeb Bush to do well in New Hampshire. If he can do well and still keep his more moderate stance, things will be much better for him. The Republicans may want a more conservative candidate for their nominee, but in the overall election it may be better for him to be moderate. He needs to perform in the states like New Hampshire to really be taken seriously as a candidate. Without the same support that his father and brother had he needs to show that he is a strong and serious candidate. I think that having a president like Jeb Bush would not be a bad idea. Because he is a Republican I feel that more progress will actually be made in the capital. And also because he is more moderate not many things will change all that much. I feel that a more moderate president from either side may be the best thing for the country.
