SHOULD MARCO RUBIO BE THE CUBAN GOVERNOR?

They were given refuge while Castro was in power, he is gone, they should go home.

They were given refuge while Castro was in power, he is gone, they should go home.

Does that include the Cubans who are now American citizens?

How about dissidents, former political prisoners, and asylum seekers?

Did Fidel Castro's Communist revolution suddenly end with his death, and we simply weren't informed?

Clearly you don't live in South Florida.

Your premise is patently absurd. Let it go...

[wardaddy]

Are you drunk?

What’s left in Cuba will act and vote like Puerto Ricans

They will claim mulatto victim class oppressed status as soon as the dictatorship collapses

[Optimus Prime]

We ARE Americans. And you should be grateful of that fact, otherwise the US might have been looking down the barrel of eight years of President Gore. Ingrate.

[Alter Kaker]

Rubio is a natural born citizen. Also, what are you smoking?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Reread the Constitution. The Framers specifically put in a clause that grandfathered them in.

[JimSEA]

That’s true. It especially was Intended to benefit Hamilton. However my point was that the Founding Fathers were not foreigner phobic. The original post I was replying to suggested deportation for all Cubans. That’s nutz. Have you got a list of groups now legally here that you would deport.

Anyone peacefully here who makes their own way is fine with me and that includes those with Cuban ancestry.

Blocking an individual from running for a specific reason office is a lot different than deportation without criminal cause.

[Reno89519]

Whatever

[Optimus Prime]

Thank you for the intelligent retort.

FYI: Want to tell my brother, who was born in Cuba but came to the US at the age of 3 and became a citizen, that he's not a "real" American, either? He only served in the Army for 20+ years and shed blood in defense of this country and now works as an architect. But hey, I guess according to you he's not a real American, either, and should be packed off back to Cuba, right?

[Optimus Prime]

Or a cousin of mine who also shed blood for the defense of this country as part of the Marine Corps. Not a real American either, huh?

[eyeamok]

I think Venezuela would be a better fit for Both of Them, their Policies are already in place and will require very little real change

[randomhero97]

Ummm, most Cubans are “white.”

[smokingfrog]

Castro is still in power by proxy.
