Marco Rubio Delivers Amazing Address at The Reagan Library
The Band Of Patriots ^ | 8/26/11 | Bryan Thomas

For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge fan of Macro Rubio. I think he is, and will continue to be, a great senator from the state of Flordia, one who represents his citizens very well. Since he is a freshmen Senator, many conservatives and liberals still don't know too much about him but I think that will change within the next year or so.

As you watch the two videos, think to yourself, and compare him to many of the GOP candidates and the leaders on both sides of the isle in congress. Is there a man who speaks with such articulation and passion as Marco Rubio? Is there a man you can think of who could unite both sides of the isle with the way that he speaks? His speech giving style reminds me of someone like Ronald Reagan who was, the great communicator.

Marco Rubio:

‘On the honesty part, for example, he admitted, obliquely, that George W. Bush had raided the nation’s piggy bank and subsequently beaten the piggy to death. “I know that it’s popular in my party to blame the president, the current president,” Rubio said. “But the truth is that the only thing this president has done is accelerate policies that were already in place, and were doomed to fail.”

Is this Marco sqirming to the mushy middle for some fuzzy reason. Not helpful.

“I know that it’s popular in my party to blame the president, the current president,”

Not blame the Marxist/Muslim POS????

Seems to me McCain said something along those lines.
That sounds like a winning strategy. Sounds like a RINO. No thanks.

From what I’ve seen of him and heard from him, I like him a lot.

Florida and Texas and the first Hispanic candidate on the national ticket. HOT! HOT! HOT!
