As he explores a White House bid, Jeb Bush will make his first foray into the world of presidential fundraising this week -- highlighting the former Florida governor's ability to quickly raise money and his deep ties to Wall Street and the East Coast establishment. The inaugural fundraiser for Right to Rise, Bush's new leadership PAC, will take place Wednesday evening in Greenwich, Conn., a wealthy financial center that was home to Bush's late grandfather, former senator Prescott Bush Sr. One organizer is former SEC chairman Richard Breeden, who was appointed by Bush's father and now heads Breeden Capital Management.
