Is this some attempt by Jeb Bush to subliminally signal to the black community that he is with them?

Nope you're not crazy that is the hand of a black man.
Courtesy of TPM:  

Is it getting this bad? Flailing in the polls and struggling to find a rationale for his candidacy, is Jeb Bush suggesting he may be black? Judd Legum at ThinkProgress points out that the Jeb SuperPac 'Right to Rise' has just blanketed Iowa with a mailer in which Jeb's head appears to be photoshopped on to a black man's body.

You know I almost did not post this. But the more I stared at this picture the more I just could not figure out how it escaped scrutiny by those in charge of the "Right to Rise" PAC and made it onto a flier.

I mean first off Jeb Bush is one of the whitest men I have ever seen, so the hand really stands out.

And secondly his grin actually looks like he is hiding something from his audience, which kind of automatically makes you suspicious.

What's next? Will we soon see Jeb fliers with a breast pump photoshopped in the background to attract the new mother vote? Or two tickets to a Streisand concert surreptitiously placed in the pocket to garner support from the LGBT voter? Or perhaps just a look of shame on his face in order to connect with all of those millions of Americans outed by the Ashley Madison hack?

Politics, just when you think you have seen it all.
