Okay, here’s the lead up to the Ludacris and Jeb Bush encounter!
Apparently, Ludacris’ foundation is doing some great charitable work so he was invited to the House of Representatives in Atlanta GA., for a formal recognition of said work. Jeb Bush was there on other business and someone thought it would be great if Bush was seen with Luda. Let’s call it their black outreach attempt.
The meeting happened and a pic was taken. Then Jeb tweeted with excitement that Luda was his “opening act!”

Then the mistake in the Bush camp happened when someone thought it would be a ringing endorsement for Jeb’s 2016 presidential ambitions if Ludacris complemented the presidential wannabe. As Luda was leaving, the question was posed: Which Bush is your favorite? Luda answered, “the one outside!”
As he is leaving statehouse, Ludacris is asked which Bush is his favorite. His response: “The one outside.” #gapol pic.twitter.com/7tCh12qiOc — Greg Bluestein (@bluestein) March 19, 2015
