Oh wait. Have you even looked at Cuban immigration history?? Maybe that will explain some of these things...

Here's a place to start~~
Demographics of Cuba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

snip~~
Nationality Cuban
Major ethnic White (64.1%) (2012)[1]
Minor ethnic Mulatto and mestizo (26.6%), black (9.3%) (2012)

Yeah, because the left-wing PC crap has everyone's head turning trying to figure out all their double-speak jargon (George Zimmerman or Jodi Arias "White Hispanics" who are not even remotely "white" in the literal sense).


I don't even like that term, "Hispanic" because it's a left-wing term used to blur the lines. Is Rubio of European descent or isn't he?

I have no idea of what you are ranting about?? As for my post..I was attempting to point both good and bad side of his positions.. Im neither Liberal nor Conservative..But for any policy that takes into consideration of the Whole populations not just a "Special" class...Hand up for some is good..Hand Out is the term utilized for those that HATE those beneath them get anything much less considerations....SMH

Maybe IF your take the time to read the historical Cuban History..It's obvious..He is child of white ( loosely applied since even Asians were considered white) parents (likely European heritage) But then again it's much easier to "Rant and point fingers'' rather than read a very informative link isn't it

.. Within my post you replied to > has the link that will explain ..I don't feel it's my responsibility to make YOU READ the very informations you ask..YET Obviously DON't bother to read SMH...

But here you go once again..so that you can get INFORMED~~ If you don't read it..Then you really should't complain ..Sorry..I truly do feel badly for folk who rant on because of lack of knowledge.. so went extra mile to assist..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Cuba

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

Marco Rubio on Immigration
We have to face the facts: The first step has to be to stop the bleeding. Rubio wants to secure the border and then discuss the illegals. Right now we aren't enforcing anything. Romney had it right - self deportation.

Ha, That's what they said when Obama threw his hat in. How did that work out for you?

She is going to get a lot more votes than you may think. Rubio knows that, or he would not have come into the door swinging at her for his first words.

Rubio says he's the right politician to lead us into the 21st Century - but that was 15 years ago - and was Bush.
