Bush Making an SEC Push

 

 

Jeb Bush is getting a jump on the so-called SEC primary by visiting  campuses in Southern states that vote for the GOP's presidential nominee on March 1st.

On Saturday, the former Florida governor gave a pitch for his candidacy before the Volunteers hosted Number 19 Georgia.

Bush spoke to hundreds of orange-clad fans who gathered for his speech two hours before the opening kickoff.

After just a few minutes, Bush ended his remarks and pledged to take as many selfies as humanly possible. He spent the next half-hour or so doing just that.

Bush visited Georgia's campus September 19th for the Bulldogs' game with South Carolina. In November, he is scheduled to attend LSU's game at Alabama and Mississippi's game at Mississippi State.
