Here is a logo used for a Jeb Bush 2016 presidential campaign event:

It’s the SEC logo, but with his name! On a koozie! Perhaps not appropriate for a guy who sucks at picking SEC games, but a cool icon nonetheless.

The SEC doesn’t fully agree, and now there’s a bit of a debate going on. Via USA Today:

“We’ve been speaking with the SEC conference about that logo and ensuring that there is no trademark issues,” campaign spokesman Tim Miller said in an interview.

Asked whether that means the campaign will be ending its use of the logo or substantially altering it, Miller said: “I think that’s what folks are talking about.”

Simple solution, SEC. Let Jeb use your logo, and start using this logo yourselves:

Now you’re even!
