Jeb Bush dumps emails including social security numbers of Florida residents online | The Verge |
This thread needs to go to political and before it goes, it must be noted that this story is on many sites, and THE VERGE that you site is the ONLY one with the reference to social security......DO you think CNN and POLITICO just passed over that fact ?? In addition to those who had it for some time ???
"Jeb Bush, in an effort to portray himself as a transparent and accessible leader, released a hoard of emails early Tuesday morning, along with the first chapter of his e-book.
Bush posted online about 275,000 emails from his time as Florida's governor spanning from 1999 to 2007.
The emails had already been obtained, analyzed and published by media outlets, including CNN, and Democratic opposition research group American Bridge. But Bush's decision to make them available himself is an attempt to get ahead of critics and opponents who'll try to define Bush in their own way as he prepares for a potential presidential bid.

Entitled “Please Make Happen,” the first chapter is 30 pages and highlights a careful selection of emails to his staff and to ordinary Floridians.
He also released his email archive, which was previously reported by several news organizations, including POLITICO, and obtained through public records requests.
