He is currently a candidate for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Bush, who grew up in Houston, is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and a brother of former President George W. Bush. He graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. In 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development, and in 1986 became Florida's Secretary of Commerce until 1988. At that time, he joined his father's successful campaign for the Presidency. In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush pushed an ambitious Everglades conservation plan,〔Michael Grunwald, (Jeb in the Wilderness: The time Florida's Republican governor took on the biggest environmental restoration project in American history ), ''Politico Magazine'' (March/April 2015).〕 supported caps for medical malpractice litigation, launched a Medicaid privatization pilot program, and instituted reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice. Bush announced his presidential candidacy on June 15, 2015.〔Lee, M. J. ("Donald Trump and Jeb Bush aren't on the same planet" ), ''CNN'' (October 9, 2015).〕 ==Early life and education== Jeb Bush was born on February 11, 1953 in Midland, Texas. When he was six years old, the family relocated to the Tanglewood neighborhood of Houston, Texas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nga.org/cms/home/governors/past-governors-bios/page_florida/col2-content/main-content-list/title_bush_jeb.html )〕 The nickname "Jeb" is composed of his initials J.E.B. (John Ellis Bush). He grew up with two younger brothers, Neil and Marvin, one younger sister, Dorothy, and one older brother, George, who is seven years older. Jeb Bush initially attended Grady Elementary School in Houston.〔"(Long-held values shape Public Life of Jeb Bush )." ''The Miami Herald''. September 22, 2002. Retrieved on October 15, 2012. "Bush attended public Grady Elementary School in Houston for several years()"〕 Following in the footsteps of his father and older brother George, at the age of 14 years in late 1967,〔 Bush began attending high school at the Andover, Massachusetts boarding school Phillips Academy, Andover.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.boston.com/names/2012/10/03/jeb-bush-gives-andover-kids-republic-insight/Au73DySj6enp0gbU4F68oL/story.html )〕 Even though he received poor grades at first, he made the honor roll by the end of his senior year and served as captain of the tennis team. A student who was later expelled from Phillips Academy says that he and Bush once sewed a shorter classmate's pajamas together so he could not put them on; Bush has expressed doubt that such an incident occurred, but says he smoked marijuana at that school, which he now calls "stupid” and “wrong".〔 At the age of 17, Bush taught English as a second language and assisted in the building of a school in Ibarrilla, a small village outside of León, Guanajuato, Mexico, as part of Andover's student exchange summer program. While in Mexico, he met his future wife, Columba Garnica Gallo.〔 Bush, who had largely avoided criticizing or supporting the Vietnam War, registered for the draft after his graduation from high school in 1971.〔 In the fourth and final draft lottery drawing, on February 2, 1972, for men born in 1953 and to be inducted during 1973, Bush received a draft number of 26 on a calendar-based scale that went to 365. But no new draft orders were issued after 1972, because the U.S. changed to an all-volunteer military beginning in 1973.〔Janowitz, Morris and Charles C. Moskos, Jr. “Five Years of the All-Volunteer Force: 1973-1978. ''Armed Forces & Society'', Jan 1979; vol. 5: pp. 171–218. http://afs.sagepub.com/cgi/reprint/5/2/171〕 Though many in his family had attended Yale University, Bush chose to attend the University of Texas at Austin, beginning in September 1971.〔 He played on the Texas Longhorns varsity tennis team in 1973.〔 He graduated Phi Beta Kappa and magna cum laude from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.A. in Latin American studies.〔〔http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/25/us/politics/jeb-bush-gives-party-something-to-think-about.html〕 He completed his coursework in two and a half years.〔Kelley, Kitty.
