Count Jeb Bush, the former president's younger brother, as among those who want to see President Barack Obama "succeed.''

But also count the former Florida governor as among those tired of hearing the new president say that he inherited a mess in the White House.

"If I had one humble criticism of President Obama, it would be to stop this notion of somehow framing everything in the context of, 'Everything was bad before I got here,' and focus instead on his duties, which we all want him to succeed,' Bush says in the second part of an interview with Sean Hannity of FOX News Channel that will air in two parts, this evening, and Friday on Hannity.

"But constantly pushing down the previous president to make yourself look good, I think is a bad thing,'' Bush says in a brief excerpt of the interview that FOX released today.
