“ANY Cuban citizen could rightfully claim American citizenship.”

Rubio’s parents were born Cuban citizen. Did they ever claim US citizenship????? Was it prior to Marco’s birth?

BTW citizenship is not the Article II requirement, Natural Born Citizenship is........

They applied for naturalization in 1975. Marco was born in 1971. So...it’s a no-go for Marco. If the GOP makes Rubio their VP choice, they will risk losing a LOT of Conservative Constitutionalist voters.

I like Rubio a LOT, but could not, in good conscience, vote for a ticket with him on it, and would not. “obama did it” is not reason enough for me to abandon my Constitution.
