Jeb Bush Accidentally Says He's Running for President, Corrects Himself

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush quickly corrected himself Wednesday after accidentally saying he is running for president.

"I'm running for president in 2016 and the focus is going to be about how we, if I run, how do you create high sustained economic growth," Bush said Wednesday during an interview in Reno, Nevada.

The issue surrounding when he announces a run is money.

As long as Bush is not officially a candidate, he can raise unlimited funds for his Super PAC's.

Once he declares his candidacy though, he will have to restrict donations to his campaign to $2,700 per person.
