Reporting on an upcoming foreign policy speech by former Florida governor and 2016 contender Jeb Bush on Wednesday's NBC Today, correspondent Peter Alexander was quick to hype a liability for the Republican: "It's one of the biggest challenges facing Jeb Bush, how he addresses the violence and volatility in Iraq, the country his brother, former President George W. Bush, invaded more than a decade ago."
Fill-in co-host Willie Geist introduced Alexander's report by noting: "Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush will deliver a high-profile speech as he tests the waters ahead of a likely run for the White House. It's an address that comes with certain challenges for the son and brother of a couple of former presidents."
