Jeb Bush, Jr.
Political Relative
Name at birth: John Ellis Bush, Jr.
Known as Jeb Junior or "Jebby," John Bush is the son of Florida Governor Jeb Bush and the nephew of President George W. Bush. Bush was born in 1983 to Jeb Bush and his Mexican-born wife, Columba. He is the youngest of three children: his brother George was born in 1976 and his sister Noelle was born in 1977. Jeb Bush made news on 16 September 2005, when he was charged with public drunkenness and resisting arrest by police in Austin, Texas.
Extra credit: Bush was not the first Bush relative to have trouble with the law while his father and uncle were in office. His sister Noelle was arrested for prescription drug fraud in 2002 and later sentenced to 10 days in jail after she was found in possession of cocaine. His cousins Jenna and Barbara Bush were cited for underage drinking in 2001.
