A super PAC supporting the former Florida Governor’s bid for the Republican presidential nomination released its first mailer to Iowa voters this week. Right to Rise USA tweeted a picture of the inaugural mailing, which appears to show Bush posing in front of a bridge in what appears to be Cedar Rapids, the second largest city in Iowa. But a closer look at the photo seems to show that Bush was actually superimposed on a a [stock](http://i.istockimg.com/image-zoom/24065982/3/380/253/zoom-24065982-3.jpg "undefined") image of the city, while his left hand appears to belong to someone else. Federal Election Commission could be partly to blame. The FEC bars coordination between a super PAC and a campaign, so if Right to Rise wanted a photo of Bush in Iowa, they couldn’t just ask for it. > [](https://twitter.com/r2rusa/status/634401700346884096) > [](https://twitter.com/ZekeJMiller/status/634869691887022080) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/"},"headline":"Jeb Bush's Super PAC Has a Bad Photoshop Moment","datePublished":"2015-08-22T01:54:34.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T10:21:57.535Z","description":"Jeb Bush has fallen victim to what appears to be the first Photoshop fail of the 2016 campaign.","url":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/","keywords":["jeb bush","2016 Election topic"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbd08ad6ef55515d5/698860435f570f1017b1d06b/jeb-bush-george-bush.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Zeke Miller","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/zeke-j-miller/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbd08ad6ef55515d5/698860435f570f1017b1d06b/jeb-bush-george-bush.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Jeb Bush, former governor of Florida and 2016 Republican presidential candidate, speaks to attendees at the Iowa State Fair Soapbox in Des Moines, Iowa, U.S., on Friday, Aug. 14, 2015.","caption":"Jeb Bush, former governor of Florida and 2016 Republican presidential candidate, speaks to attendees at the Iowa State Fair Soapbox in Des Moines, Iowa, U.S., on Friday, Aug. 14, 2015.","creditText":"Bloomberg—Bloomberg via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/jeb-bush/","name":"jeb bush"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/","name":"Jeb Bush's Super PAC Has a Bad Photoshop Moment"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"See Jeb Bush's Political Career Through the Years","description":"From his unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign in 1994 through his decision to seek the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, here are some of the top moments from Jeb Bush's political career.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/3nRIB78f/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-06-12T22:49:40.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/3nRIB78f.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/","duration":"PT2M37S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4007139/jeb-bush-photoshop-fail/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
