he is the perfect candidate and could easily beat any democrat in the presidential elections

what are your views and opinions on Marco Rubio ?
Acceptable, but certainly not the best we can do. If it's between him and Hillary (or Warren or Omalley), I'll crawl over broken glass to vote for him. I'm pushing for Cruz.

Why?
I want the IRS GONE

I want Obamacare GONE

won't happen with Rubio

You don't get to decide who's Hispanic.

WHY do you think Republicans need to win over Socialists?

Do the Demonrats worry about winning over Republicans?

Rubio is the most RINO and can capture the undecided from Hillary, but he is still green.
Jeb makes remarks that we don't need another green senator as President - Presidents should have more experience.
Signing the letter to Iran is a strike against Rubio in taking the middle ground.
He keeps making the silly statement that we need a young dynamic leader with fresh ideas to lead us into the 21st century - but we entered the 21st century 15 years ago under President Bush.
Overall I like Cruz - too bad he's a Republican trying to parrot RW talking points.

Ask the Hispanics who won't vote for him...which is the vast majority.

It's not my place to tell you why. He won't get the Hispanic vote. You know it, I know it, the whole damn world knows it.

Now it's up to you to find out why. I'm black, and I can only speak on why I'm sure African Americans won't vote for him. Ask Hispanics about their reasons.

too white for brown Hispanics to vote for him ?
