The man who once went around lamely referring to himself as "Ricky Martin Bush" is hitting the trail for his daddy.
(He has his uncle's deer-in-headlights blank stare down perfect)
LEXINGTON, S.C. (AP) George P. Bush is talking up his dad Jeb but he knows he'll have to endure some gentle ribbing about his grandfather and uncle first.
"We are lucky to have George Bush here. That's George P. Bush," quips state Sen. Katrina Shealy, who introduces the Texas land commissioner to the crowd at Lizard's Thicket, an eatery where locals talk politics over fried chicken, giblet and cornbread gravy and five kinds of pie.
Bush grins but stays silent. "Yeah," he later concedes to a reporter, "I've heard just about every George Bush joke that there possibly is."
That's because the next-generation bearer of the powerful political name has been helping relatives run since age 3, when he clutched a balloon and sported a campaign T-shirt as his grandfather, George H.W. Bush, launched his first presidential bid from a Houston park in 1979.

In case you're getting all of Jeb's crooked kids mixed up, "Ricky" isn't the son who was arrested for being drunk and resisting cops. That was Jeb Jr.
And he wasn't the one arrested on a slew of drug charges. That was Jeb's daughter Noelle.
No, "Ricky" was the creepy one who had the cops called on him for stalking his ex-girlfriend and trying to break into her house.
Yessir, those Bushes are the quintessential Amurican family. I mean, who among us can't say that every single of our kids have either been arrested come just short of it?
