JEB! trying to clean up his checkered crony capitalist past in advance of a 2016 run

The Crown Prince is busy resigning from hedge fund, private equity and corporate boards (including ones where he profited from Obamacare) in preparation for the formal launch for JEB! 2016 sometime next year.
Here is the latest:

Resigning from Rayonier board:

USA TODAY- Jeb Bush is cutting ties to a real estate investment trust as he actively explores running for president in 2016.

The former Florida governor notified Rayonier Inc. last week that he’ll resign from the company’s board effective Dec. 31. The information is contained in a Securities and Exchange filing published Monday.

“Mr. Bush stated that there are no disagreements between the company and him related to the company’s operations, policies or practices,” according to the SEC document.

This is at least the third company Bush has severed ties with since announcing Dec. 16 that he will explore a White House bid. He also resigned from the boards of Barclays, the multinational bank, and Tenet Healthcare Corporation, a company that has profited from President Obama’s health care law and touted its economic benefits.

Rayonier, which is based in Jacksonville, Fla., is one of the nation’s largest private landowners. It owns, leases or manages 2.6 million acres of timberland in the United States and New Zealand. Read more.
