This might be a little bit of a bubble effect on your part. Jeb Bush absolutely has a chance to win the Republican nomination. He's not presumptive by any means but in a field of 16 or so, he's top three. That's why he's doing it.

(And arrogance -- but everyone who would even consider running for national office has a certain mindset, and arrogance is part of the package.)
