Rubio/West 2016?
Myself | Today | Me

Posted on 11/07/2012 12:18:19 AM PST by KerryOnNoMore

I know it's early to think but if this country isn't completely destroyed I think this is the best ticket that can win with true conservatives. It addresses two demographics that the GOP typically does poor with, that being the hispanic and black vote. It's especially critical if amnesty is passed adding millions of new latino voters. Rubio's eligibility shouldn't be a concern here since Obama was deemed eligible. I know it's brief and not expressed the most thoroughly but I just wanted to gauge people's thoughts.

Rubio supports illegal immigration. No thank you.

West just lost his seat.

Rubio. Latinos are a huge and growing demographic. Republicans need to court them.

Geraldo shows us they become single issue voters if immigration isn’t on the table. I’d prefer it not be but that’s the choice.

Can you please explain how he is not a natural born citizen? If Obammy is then so is he.

Two wrongs do not make a right. Rubio needs to acknowledge his ineligibility for POTUS/VPOTUS, otherwise he deserves to be sidelined for contributing to the debasement of the ruleof Constitutional law. He would make a fine cabinet secretary or governor, but he must first lead by example by acknowledging the Constitution’s natural born citizen clause. It is a litmus test for any candidate, Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or otherwise.

If anyone doesn’t like it, they’ll just have to endure our unwavering opposition and its political consequences.

It’s time to stop thinking about achieving change in a broken system.

I think we need to concentrate on the next Congressional election in 2014. After two more years of Obama, we may be able pick up a lot of seats in the senate and house.

One of them would have to move. They’re both Floridians.

Rubio is still a moderate. When asked, he stated that Jeb Bush would be a 'fantastic' choice for Romney's running mate. I just want a real conservative with a real plan. Unabashed, fearless and uncompromising.

I think it is honestly gone.

We are suffering the thirty years of teacher’s union brainwashing, the growing of government union employment and the vast social programs that so many are attached to.

Romney was good enough in fact to earn the vote. He should have won this race, but the fact is we have SOOO many people on government employment and some sort of dole (and they vote in mass), that there isn’t a chance. It is all that try against the government party that uses the treasury agaisnt all coming candidates.

The press like the kids are also brainwashed and are only for the government party.

If Reagan were alive today, he would have probably lost to Obama hate to say it. I think the voters are that far gone.

Wouldn’t win. Even if we did court Hispanics with a Hispanic candidate, by this time, Dems will have gained massively among white voters, because another batch of brainwashed college students will be eligible.

Having a brown face on the ticket will do nothing. All they want is free stuff. There is no way the GOP can court them without completely giving up on anything resembling conservative ideas.

You are assuming we are going to have a Congress to vote for in 2014.

The dictator has won, and more than ever, he will rule by decree. If Congress still exists, it will be a puppet.

In fact, it already is.
