Online History

2016 Presidential Election

On June 14th, 2015, the @JebBush[2] Twitter feed posted a teaser logo for his upcoming presidential campaign, featuring the name "Jeb" followed by an exclamation point (shown below). In the first 48 hours, the tweet gained over 1,100 favorites and 980 retweets.

That day, other Twitter users began mocking the logo with photoshopped parodies (shown below). On June 15th, The Daily What published a compilation of notable photoshopped examples.

Also on June 15th, Bush officially announced his candidacy for the Republican Party nomination in the 2016 United States Presidential election.



After a lengthy decline from original popular favorite to bottom of the polls, Jeb dropped out of the election February 21st, 2016.

Guaca Bowle

On August 4th, 2015, Jeb Bush unveiled a new campaign store on his web site, where supporters could purchase merchandise, most of which was branded with the campaign's logo. One item which remained unbranded was a molcajete, or Mexican guacamole bowl, which was labeled "Guaca Bowle" and cost $75 from the campaign.[5] Accompanying the molcajete was this promotional text:

Jeb and Columba love whipping up guacamole on Sunday Funday. Now, you can get in on the act with this “Guaca Bowle.” Jeb’s secret guacamole recipe not included…yet.

The molcajete quickly became a source of ridicule for the Bush campaign, especially considering that similar models were available on Amazon for far cheaper. In addition, since the unveiling of the molcajete happened in near proximity to the release of the Pea Guacamole Recipe, many of the satirical tweets combined the two events.[6]

The launching of the campaign store and the unveiling of the Guaca Bowle became the source material for a satirical web store called Jeb!SwagStore and was covered in a variety of political publications, including Talking Points Memo,[7] the Guardian,[8] and the Week,[9] and was featured on an episode of Late Night With Stephen Colbert on September 9th, 2015.

Position on Net Neutrality

Position on Same-Sex Marriage
