If former President Bill Clinton is former President George W. Bush’s “brother from another mother,” as the 43rd president has indicated, what does that make former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton?

“My sister-in-law,” Mr. Bush told CNN.

Could his brother Jeb, the former Florida governor, run for president against Mrs. Clinton?

“Yeah — and I think he’d beat her,” Mr. Bush said.

Mr. Bush has said in recent interviews that he’d like to see his brother make a run at the White House in 2016, but said his brother is not “rushing” in to running for the presidency.

“I have no clue where his head is now,” he said. “By the way, people say, ’convince your brother to run.’ You can’t convince him to run. Only he can make the decision, and pushing him doesn’t help, by the way.”
