What do you think about him? I like what he has to say more than any other conservative that has the potential to run. He's down to earth and straight forward without the need to put on a show. That's a quality that is missing in our conservatives now and it makes me not trust them. I trust Marco Rubio. He has polished up his speaking skills quite a bit, the heart was there the entire time, though.

I wonder how many Cons would be willing to vote for a Cuban Anchor Baby?

He's not over-evangelical either. Focusing on the family and the American dream economically, that's what I like considering myself a fiscal conservative.

A traitorous Senator who sabotaged any Iran nuke deal and weakened the US' hand.

John Kerry destroyed Rubio recently in front of the joint arms committee. Rubio is all talk, bad talk at that.

Here's why I would never vote for Rubio. He is pro-amnesty.

"We have millions of people living in this country illegally, many of whom have been here for a decade or longer. We need to find a reasonable but responsible way of incorporating them into American life".

Evidently he doesn't care that Americans need the jobs they are holding and that amnesty makes a mockery out of our immigration laws.

He neglects that his parents benefitted from the fact that the wealthy used to pay a much higher percentage of the taxes. When the wealthy were paying 90% taxes, we didn't have such a high national debt and we could do a lot of things we can't do anymore. Cutting taxes for the wealthy even more isn't going to put prosperity for everyone on the table.

Yeah. The whole time he was talking, I was thinking about those immigrants now who don't have the same benefits he had. Cubans have benefitted immensely from immigration laws that have favored them.
