Please, Not Another Bush - Jeb Bush Just Doesn’t Like Americans Very Much

The Country can't afford another one after Obama. The Bushes and their prep-school buddies pay off almost as badly as liberals. They just pay to keep the poor and minorities out of sight and mind. That has been the way country club conservatives satisfy their meager, collective, false sense of social altruism. m/r

As you read through a book, as the pages clock by, hints of the author’s underlying attitudes accumulate until, by halfway through the thing, you have a clear picture of those attitudes.  In the case of a certain type of author—a person with not much power of imagination or self-examination—you may have a clearer picture of his attitudes than he has himself.
So with  Immigration Wars, the new book by Jeb Bush and Clint Bolick.  I just got through reading the book on Kindle: the square brackets in what follows refer to locations in the Kindle text.
Yes, there are two authors there, and you can speculate for yourself about who did how much of the writing. But, given that Jeb Bush is an ambitious politician, and that now is about the right time for ambitious politicians to lay down markers for the 2016 election, I doubt there is a single sentence here that Jeb Bush didn’t sign off on—whether he actually wrote the book or not. So I am blaming him for it.
So what insights into this possible 2016 presidential candidate do we get from  Immigration Wars
