Ghosted "Manhattan" Book Project on HW a potential keystone of JEB! 2016 rollout

Someone has been working on a "secret" book project for two years about the Bush dynasty, specifically a hagiography about King George I HW, allegedly written by King George II W, and conveniently timed for publication in November 2014.  This has been revealed, or leaked by the Bush PR mill, to Politico.  If you believe Junior actually wrote it, then you probably voted for him, twice.  For everyone else, read here about the ghostwriter who penned Bush 43's presidential memoir, Decision Points.

The Politico piece sums up the strategy pretty transparently:

Throne Game of Neo-Cons?
"When Bush’s book comes out on Nov. 11 [by sheer coincidence, Veteran's Day], it’s sure to force a re-evaluation of the Bushes on many levels: the history of the elder Bush’s presidency, the true nature of the relationship between the father and the son, the novelty of one president [probably not actually] writing about another, the evolution of the younger Bush in his post-presidential years, and the political future of the Bush dynasty."

The release of the book is timed just before the end of the year, when JEB! has stated to donors he will announce his 2016 presidential plans.  It's hard to imagine the book's sales figures will honestly help the Crown Prince make up his mind.  Given the way the Bushes operate, don't be surprised, though, if those sales figures are massively, and artificially, inflated via a masterful Rovian plan.
