Subway. Eat fresh. Heres a look at todays forecast in some cities around the country. President obamas foreign policies are under fire from a potential white house candidate. Former Florida Governor jeb bush took the president to task over his handling of the end of the iraq war. Bush is also trying to separate himself from the administrations of both his brother and his father, and while he hasnt officially announced his candidacy for the 2016 election, a cbs news poll shows that he is the republican frontrunner. Susan mcginnis is in washington. Susan, good morning. Good morning, annemarie. Thats right. He hasnt said if hes running, but this is called jeb bushs first Foreign Policy speech. In it he criticizes the Obama Administration and he begins his formidable task of trying to separate himself from president ial relatives 41 and 43 in hopes of becoming 45. Im my own man. In a major Foreign Policy address wednesday in chicago, former Florida Governor jeb bush attempted to distance himself from his father and his brother saying mistakes were made in iraq during george w. Bushs administration. Not creating an environment of security after the successful taking out of hussein was a mistake because iraqis wanted security most you know, more than anything else. Offering few specifics on what his own Foreign Policy would look like, bush had harsh words for president obamas strategy saying military spending is too low and global alliances too weak. Under this administration were inconsistent and indecisive. We have lost the trust and confidence of our friends. Despite his legacy, a new cbs news poll shows bush leading for the republican nomination followed by former senator marco rubio. He clearly has a famous name in politics, but it also means hes got a job to do in defining his own name. The cbs news poll also shows little enthusiasm for new Jersey Governor Chris Christie and overwhelming support among democrats for hillary clinton. 81 say they will likely consider her as their partys nominee. But overall the poll finds fewer americans paying attention to the president ial campaign compared to the same points in the 2008 campaign, a sign both sides will have to work hard to turn heads. Now, while he kept that speech pretty vague, were beginning to get a picture of where jeb bush stands on issues he said he supports the nsa program that collects data from millions of americans. He did not say, annemarie, whether he supports sending Ground Troops to fight isis. Susan mcginnis in washington. Thank you, susan.
