WASHINGTON, Oct. 26 (UPI) -- George P. Bush, son of former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, appeared on ABC's This Week on Sunday and said his father is "moving forward" on a 2016 presidential run.

"I think it's more than likely that he's giving this serious thought in moving forward ... that he'll run," he said.

Jeb Bush would be the third Bush in the White House if he won in 2016. His brother, George W. Bush, served as 43rd president from 2001 to 2009 and their father, George H.W. Bush, served as the 41st president from 1989 to 1993.

George W. has already endorsed his brother for 2016, telling Fox News earlier this month, "I think [Jeb would] be a great president. He understands what it's like to be president."

In January this year, Barbara Bush suggested the country has "had enough Bushes," but by March decided "maybe it's OK" if Jeb runs.
