He can't legally operate or have anything to do with a Super Pac if he is an announced candidate. It's against campaign finance rules. So he's skating by against the intent of the law pretending he doesn't know if he will run or not while he gets lots of million dollar donations.
Once he's ready to run, he will hand the super pac off to someone else and pretend to have nothing to do with what it does or where it spends all this money he's been busy collecting.
This guy is a bigger shyster than both his dad and his brother rolled into one..
Jeb Bush promises "no coordination" with super PAC if he runs - CBS News |
Yep - read that the other day. Amazing, but not surprising.

with the op sort of reasoning, it suggests all future candidates that haven't thrown their hats in the ring are up to nefarious means, on account of you know, they haven't announced their candidacy 17 + months before hand.

Leave it to you to defend this practice. Jeb's fucking dimwit brother stole the election by bending the rules and ol' Jeb seems on-track to pull some shitty tricks to get elected too, starting with this one. But hey, who cares. Enjoy voting for your boy, Jeb. Hillary will win.
