I haven't really looked in to Jeb Bush too much, but

1 - Despite the fact that people are individuals, and are not automatically like their relatives, I think the experience with his father and brother as president hurts him. I say that not as an attack against them, but just to point out their relative unpopularity. G HW was a one term president. G W was a two term president but was unpopular in his 2nd term.

2 - I don't think a brokered convention is too likely, and even if it happens I think one of the current candidates will get the nomination.
