Jeb is making a ton of unforced errors. Evidently the super pac is worried that Jeb is a wimp and wanted him to look more buff. The photo shop effort failed http://thinkprogress.org/election/2015/08/21/3694173/jeb-bush-super-pac-sends-mailer-to-86000-iowans-with-jebs-head-photoshopped-onto-a-black-body/
Jeb Bush has been lagging in the polls, trailing Donald Trump by a wide margin nationally and in early states.
Nevertheless, hes still considered one of the most likely eventual nominees by pundits and political experts. One reason why is his Super PAC, Right To Rise, which has raised over $100 million, dwarfing his competitors.
But having money is one thing. Spending it wisely is another.
Yesterday, Right To Rise announced they were sending a mailer to 86,000 Iowa households touting Bushs candidacy.
A closer examination, however, shows that the flier features Jebs head photoshopped onto a black mans body. In the flier, one of Jebs hands clearly belongs to a black man.

This will be fun to laugh at

Is there someone inside the Bush campaign who intentionally makes these mistakes to help Bush crash and burn? How could anyone think they could lighten the right hand and ignore the left hand? That just seems impossible. Of course, the mistake made it through several levels of review, presumably, and went on to the printer. This is hilarious.

52% women, though. Weird.

It's half the size of his other hand (if that is his other hand).
