Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on Tuesday criticized President Barack Obama's initial handling of the Ebola crisis as 'incompetent,' saying it gave rise to unneeded fears among the American public about the virus.
Bush, who is said to be potential Republican presidential candidate to attack the president over Ebola, also said in a wide-ranging discussion at Vanderbilt University that he supports travel restrictions for people who have been to the most severely affected countries in Africa.
Bush said Obama should have been more 'clear and concise' about his plans, and lent more credibility to health officials leading the response.
'It looked very incompetent to begin with, and that fueled fears that may not be justified,' Bush said. 'And now you have states that are legitimately acting on their concerns, creating a lot more confusion than is necessary.'
I guess this is all politics. Obama won't have done better than he did. Ebola is a communal fight.
