George wants a third Bush in the White House
President George W Bush has been encouraging his younger brother Jeb to run for the White House.
Their father, George Bush Sr, also likes the idea of the Florida governor going for the top job.
Jeb has repeatedly said he will not be a candidate for president in 2008, but that has not stopped his family from suggesting he tries for the role one day.
The current President said: "I would like to see Jeb run at some point in time, but I have no idea if that's his intention or not."
He said his brother would make "a great president" and that he had "pushed him fairly hard about what he intends to do."
But he added: "I truly don't think he knows."
Jeb, 53, will end his second term as governor in January.
His brother George ends his second presidential term in January 2009. He cannot seek re-election because of term limits.
Jeb currently has a better poll rating than his sibling.
While George's approval ratings are in the low 30s, some 55% of Florida voters surveyed last month said Jeb was doing a good job.
