How exactly was Jeb Bush going to enforce a statute whose execution was specifically mandated by Congress to rest in the federal courts' hands? Set up a Court of his own? Appoint some state marshall a federal judge and order him to put in a feeding tube? Don't be ridiculous. Jeb Bush had neither the expertise nor, more important, the authority to review the case under the law Congress enacted. There may have been some weird thing he may have done under Florida law, but he certainly cannot act in the place of a federal court, which is where Congress deposited the authority to act. Even if Congress had authorized JebW to act, which you well and clearly know it didn't, doing so may have been an improper delegation of Congressional authority.
