Ed Rendell thinks that former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, a Republican, should be the next president of the United States. In his talk last night, the first in the Penn Democrats series “Why We Vote Blue,” the former Mayor of Philadelphia and former Governor of Pennsylvania gave a few remarks looking forward to the presidential election in 2016. “My hope for the country ... would be Jeb Bush in 2016 because he knows how to work with the other side,” Rendell, a Democrat, said. He believes, though, that Bush will not run. With the Nov. 4 gubernatorial elections rapidly approaching, and much of the Democratic voting base dispirited due to the performance of the current president, Rendell repeatedly stressed the importance of convincing potential voters to go out and actively cast their ballots. Although the Democratic candidate for Pennsylvania governor, Tom Wolf , currently leads in the polls over incumbent Republican Tom Corbett , Rendell warned against being misled by the statistics.
