== Childhood ==<br />
<br />
When he was six years old, the family moved from Midland, TX (where his father ran an oil drilling company) to [[Houston]], Texas. He was a budding athlete, enjoying baseball and tennis. He went to a public elementary school, and later to a private school. When he was in eighth grade, George H. W. Bush won a seat in Congress and moved to Washington, DC. The Bush boys stayed in Houston with another family to finish the school year, and spent most summers and holidays at the family estate, located at Kennebunkport, Maine. He then enrolled at Phillips Andover Academy, in Massachusetts already attended by his brother, George. Jeb Bush made the honor roll his first year. [http://www.who2.com/jebbush.html]<br />

<br />
== Marriage and Family ==<br />
<br />
Bush met his wife, Columba, while teaching English as part of a University program, in Leon, Guanajato, [[Mexico]] in 1971. (Columba was born in Leon in 1954.) The two were were married on February 23, 1974, shortly after Bush graduated from the [[University of Texas]] with a degree in Latin American Affairs. They have three children: George (known as George P., born 1976), Noelle (born 1977) and John (known as Jebby, born 1983).<br />
<br />
== Politics ==<br />
<br />
Jeb Bush and family moved to Florida in 1981 and joined the Codina Group, a real estate development company. He became Secretary of Commerce under governor Bob Martinez in 1987 and was the Republican nominee for governor in 1994, losing to incumbent Lawton Chiles. In 1998 he ran again and won, becoming governor of Florida at the same time his brother George W. was governor of Texas. He was re-elected in 2002, defeating Democrat William McBride (who had upset former Attorney General Janet Reno in the Democratic primary election). Bush could not run for re-election to a third term in 2006, because of term limits; another Republican, Charlie Crist, was elected to succeed him. After eight years, Jeb Bush left office as one of the most popular and prominent governors in state history. There is much talk about him running for President in eight years (2016) when he would be only 62 years old.

<div>'''Jon Stewart''' (born Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz on November 28, 1962) is a nine-time [[Emmy]]-winning [[American]] [[comedian]], [[satire|satirist]], [[actor]], [[author]], and producer. He is best known as the host of [[Comedy Central]]'s [[The Daily Show]] and for his political satire. <br />
<br />
Stewart has also appeared in several films including "Big Daddy," "The Faculty" and the [[Academy Award]] nominated "Death To Smoochy." However, he claims that in these films, he "was a horrible actor" and jokes about his often on The Daily Show. <br />
<br />
He ha tried several times to get [[President George W. Bush]] on his show, but he claims that the President must not be able to read the invitations. This commonly gets a huge laugh from the viewers of the show, who are obviously liberals. He claims that many viewers tend to get high before watching his show. This has been confirmed, as many viewers are below the age of 20. <br />
