When Jeb Bush was born, his big brother didn’t exactly celebrate the news.

“As a kid, George viewed him as a completely unnecessary addition to the family,” John Ellis, a Bush cousin, recounted years later. “Jebbie was just a pain.… I think that carried on for a long time.”

Sibling relations can be fraught, a tangle of love, envy and compassion. In that way, Jeb and George W. Bush — separated by nearly seven years and vastly different life experiences — are no different than any other set of brothers.

But they are, of course, like no other: They're part of a political dynasty, and their dramas play out for the world to watch, their personal history entwined with that of their country.
