I think Rubio could be our next president.

No doubt, but he is still ineligible, but so is the current president. No one gives a cr@p about the Constitution, and that includes you.

What people see: a young, hansome, minority candidate that speaks well.

What people get: another ladder climber who went straight from law school to politics, has no real world experience and talks a much better game than he actually plays.

Surely this is not the best hope conservatives have.

He's as eligible as Romney was...

Good post. He also wouldn't be the first candidate to go hardline on foreign policy to cover how squishy he becomes on other issues.

Sure but he lost.

[Yosemitest]

Only a stinkin’ LIBERAL uses the word “neocon” .

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Your first accurate observation ?

Finally someone speaks the truth. We are wasting our time bickering over 2016 GOP hopees to run a useless race against the already entrenched coup that has happened. We are not going to win it no matter who is the nominee.

I am sick of the same old pattern we fall into thinking we can fix it in just 4 more years. How many years have we been doing that now? Not going to happen. People need to think of themselves as Americans who are under attack. Party politics is a waste. Where are all the wonderful patriot politicians out there speaking and doing something about Obama’s UnConstitutional actions? They still think it is all just everyday politics as we watch our rights stripped away and our money pilfered.

Successful voter fraud has decided the 2016 race already. If Obama is tired of it, Hillary has already been chosen to take over.

I have been observing politics for over 50 years. I have correctly predicted every Presidential election since FDR Died. Rubio is not NBC, but I doubt that will stop him from running and it will not be an issue unless the DIMs get very worried.

The Constitution is just a lot of outdated rules made by a bunch of old white racists so who cares. Glad you could help with that clarification Arkie.

Rubio is not NBC

Show it to me in the constitution.

Show it to me in the constitution.

You know where it is, you just don't want to accept it. Plain language defines a Natural Born Citizen, but like the second amendment, people want a court to define "Shall not be infringed."

I have little patience with people who can not accept plain language. Grow up.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I’m from Missouri.
Show Me.

I keep looking in the constitution for “garlic eater, spaghetti eater, beaner, wop, kike, gook, mick...”

“garlic eater, spaghetti eater, beaner, wop, kike, gook, mick...”

You forgot spic. Now buzz off before I get upset.

I’m from Missouri. Show Me.

How could I show anything to a state that returned Clare to the Senate?
