Jeb Bush Ends Bid for Republican Presidential Nomination
--------------------------------------------------------

Following a decisive loss in the South Carolina primary, former Florida
Republican Governor Jeb Bush ended his bid for the 2016 Republican
presidential nomination.

Jeb Bush: "I'm proud of the campaign that we've run to unify our country
and to advocate conservative solutions that would give more Americans
the opportunity to rise up and reach their God-given potential. But the
people of Iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina have spoken, and I
really respect their decision. So tonight I am suspending my campaign."
