Early career
In 1974, Bush accepted an entry-level job in Texas Commerce Bank's international division, which was established by James Baker's family. He was sent by Caracas, Venezuela's capital, in November 1977, to launch a new bank branch manager and vice president.
Following the 1980 presidential election, Bush and his family migrated to Miami-Dade County, Florida. Armando Codina, a 32-year-old Cuban immigrant and self-made millionaire, worked in real estate. Codina had a success in a computer industry and then formed The Codina Group, a separate firm formed to investigate real estate deals. Bush concentrated on finding commercial property during his time with the firm. Codina became one of South Florida's top real estate development companies shortly after making Bush his partner in a new development venture that quickly became one of the area's top real estate development companies. Bush received 40% of the company's earnings as a partner. Bush described his move from Houston to Miami in 1983: "On the personal front, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law were already living here." "I want to be incredibly wealthy," says the professional, and I'd be able to tell you when I've hit the target."
During Bush's time in Miami, he was involved in many entrepreneurial ventures, including working for a cell phone company that sold fire services to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System, becoming a minority owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, establishing a footwear store in Panama, and being involved in a Nigerian initiative selling water pumps. Miguel Recarey, the founder of the International Medical Centers (IMC), employed Bush as a real estate consultant and charged him a US$75,000 fee for finding the company a new location, but the change never took place. Bush did, however, lobby the Reagan administration vigorously and fruitfully on behalf of Recarey and IMC.
Early political career
In 1980 and 1988, Bush volunteered for his father's campaigns. Bush served as an unpaid volunteer during the 1980 campaign and expressed adoration for his father. Bush got his start in Florida politics as the Chairman of the Dade County Republican Party in the mid-1980s. In the 1986 election of Bob Martinez to the Governor's office, Dade County played a vital part. Martinez recalled Bush as Florida's Secretary of Commerce in a return. He served in that position from 1987 to 1988, before resigning to work on his father's presidential campaign.
From 1981 to 1992, Bush frequently communicated with his father's employees. Dexter Lehtinen was the youngest Bush representative for the Southern District of Florida's young age, and arranged a meeting between the Bush administration and Motorola. He also pleaded for Cuban exiles in South Florida and endorsed the Cuban embargo. In 1990, Bush ordered his father to pardon Orlando Bosch, a Cuban exile who had been sentenced to death for launching a rocket into a Polish ship en route to Cuba. Bosch was released from jail and granted permanent residence in the United States.
In 1989, Bush, the first Cuban-American to vote in Congress, was Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the first Cuban-American to run in Congress. In 1994, Bush unsuccessfully attempted to win the governor's office against incumbent Democratic Governor Lawton Chiles. Bush ran for office as a conservative in the 1990s. At one point, Bush was asked what he would do for African Americans, and he responded: "It's time to work for a world where opportunity is balanced rather than equality of outcomes." I'm going to answer your question by saying, "probably nothing." During a large portion of the campaign, Bush led the way. Bush ran a campaign ad starring the mother of a 10-year-old girl who had been kidnapped and murdered many years before. The ads began with photographs of the girl and then shifted to her mother, who shared a story about her daughter's trial and said, "Her killer is still on death row and we're still waiting for justice." Because he is too liberal on crime, we will not get it from Lawton Chiles. . This is the first time we hear a story. We're all disappointed with this one. . . I am aware of Jeb Bush. He'll make criminals complete their sentences and enforce the death penalty. "Lawton Chiles will not" be able to say "no" will be allowed." The ad caused a storm of controversy. Prosecutors in Florida and former Supreme Court justices rode around the state with Chiles, with Chiles claiming that Bush had no idea what he was talking about. It was compared by a ranked Chilese to the Willie Horton ad campaign for Bush's father in 1988. Since being asked by reporters a few minutes after the ad began airing, Bush raised himself in his dilemma by saying "No" immediately. Chiles began pounding on the argument that Bush could not be trusted with polls revealing that voters have doubts about Bush's legitimacy. "That's why we can't trust Jeb Bush with our future," Chiles concluded with the tagline: "We can't trust Jeb Bush with our future." Moderator Tim Russert asked Bush how he could continue to run the ad that was "by your own admission, misleading" during the last debate, the only one of the campaign in prime time. Bush said the commercial was no longer being broadcast because it had been "complete," but that he'd have kept it on the air longer. Chiles was in his opinion, "liberal on crime," and he hadn't yet acted on any other death warrants, according to the author. Chiles said as it was his turn to announce that he had supported the death penalty throughout his life and that he had executed as many people as governor, eight as in the previous two administrations; "as Governor, I hold the phone as they walk into the death chamber, and I give the final command before they pull the switch." Then he continued, "You put on this ad, Jeb." You knew it was wrong. Even thought it was false. ... . I'm ashamed that in an ad like this you'll use the agony of a woman and her daughter's death. Pure and simple, it's demagoguery. Every single newspaper in the state has looked at the commercial; almost every one of them has reported it as a new low. You've outdoned your father in the Willie Horton ad, but you've defused it. And Jeb, I'll tell you how long you ran the ad, how many people followed it up until your polls started tagging you that you were taking a beating on it, and that you're still getting a beating. "You shouldn't have done it," the girl in the ad's convicted killer's jail term would not be executed until 2013, during Governor Rick Scott's tenure). Bush lost the election by just 63,940 votes out of 4,206,076 that were cast for the major party candidates (2,135,008; 51% to 2,071,068; 49%). George, his older brother, was elected Governor of Texas in the same election year. Following his election loss, Bush joined The Heritage Foundation's board and continued to work with Codina Partners. Bush, alongside T. Willard Fair, the president of the Urban League's Miami affiliate, was instrumental in the establishment of Florida's first charter school.
