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.
Neither of his parents were citizens at the time of his birth
No. West;but not Rubio.
Oh, I do too.
Obama is not and cannot be a natural born citizen. His father under U.S.law was Kenyan, and his stepfather may have been Indonesian and adopted Barry to make him also an Indonesian citizen.
Marco Rubio’s parents were citizens of Cuba at the time of his birth in the United States, which makes him a natural born citizen of Cuba and a possible native born citizen under statutory law of the United States at birth. Marco Rubio retained the right to denonunce his native born U.S. citizenship until his age of majority, which means he was born under the sovereignty and allegiance of Cuba and retained divided loyalty to Cuba and the United States until he lost the right of citizenship of Cuba. The authors of the Constitution wrote the natural born citizen clause for the specific purpose of making any person who was born after the adoption of the Constitution with the duty of loyalty to a foreign sovereign ineligible to occupy the office of the Commander-in-Chief of the American Army and the Office of the President. Marco Rubio was born with the duty of sovereignty to Cuba and its leadership. Being born with native born U.S. citizenship is a manmade law and not a natural law, so such native born citizenship is no better than an immigrant’s obtaining citizenship by the manmade statutory act of naturalization.
Rubio is a rino romneybot, and didn’t West lose?
Eff Off with race pick shite
God freepers are so weak and daft
The appeals court of appeals in Ankeny v. Governor of Indiana disagrees. The constitution does not explicitly define what “natural born citizen” means. It’s been ruled that anybody with birthright citizenship is considered a natural born citizen.
Can you articulate why you are so in favor of Rubio’s policies and principles?
Or is this a shallow racial thing.
Be honest.
The past four years have shown that Tea Partyism won’t fix America. The only answer is a peaceful breakup of the United States.
Analyze until you paralyze. But do not apologize.
“Natural born citizen” has become a meaningless term. We are today none of us citizens, but subjects, as much without a state as Gypsies or bandits, within the territories where we first saw life.
Perspectives have been vastly changed, overnight it would seem, but the new reality has emerged. A little more than half of the occupants of the geographical region once known as the “United States” has chosen to turn its back on the vision that once was, in favor of a much older model of special privilege overlying a much larger underclass that is considered to be inferior and not to be allowed expression of free will.
It was conditions much like this, that the idea of a Declaration of Independence was first conceived. That document was brief and succinct, but it summed up the yearning on the hearts of all mankind, and the rationale for acting on that yearning. For there is to be no compromise possible with the continuing regime that has been pressing for most of the past century to gain and hold ascendancy over the richest nation the world has ever seen.
Wealth itself is considered by this reassertion of the ancient regime of rule by the shabby elite, as evil in and of itself, or at least until THEY have acquired the wealth for themselves. Then, there is no thought of philanthropy or magnanamity, but only an unslakeable thirst for still more concentration of power and influence that wealth can buy.
Ayn Rand was a person of great perspicuity, despite her proclaimed atheism, and it is incumbent upon us to “go John Galt”, withdrawing from supporting the current regime, until it should fall of its own weight.
There are many ways, not only in terms of wealth, but in paying any kind of homage or respect to an illegitimate regime, and this one is not only illegitimate, it is criminal as well, with an agenda that runs counter to most of what we have held dear for some two hundred twenty-five years.
Who cares? We are European now...
They will lose. It’s the republican way.
Have a nice trip Barry!You're Still Number One!
If Republicans can't defeat a corruption marred racist that has proved to be a failure economically, domestically, and on matters of foreign affairs, then we have zero chance of ever winning another presidential election.
Obama has been a complete failure on all levels and we still lost!
The GOP is done! There will not be a 2016—Only token opposition —Some one to lose to Obama or his hand picked successor. Van Jones or Michelle Obama is my guess. The Democrats are THE PARTY of the 21st Century. The GOP is finished—might as well run Sarah Palin.
No. Walker 2016.
Who cares? We are European now...
In Ankeny v. Governor the justices engaged in dicta, which is not binding as legal precedent. In other words, it was the justices blowing hard about something they were dead wrong about and probably knew it when they wrote it. The case was dismissable on grounds that had nothing to do with the natural born citizen clause, but the justices decided to insert a gratuitous strike at the natural born citizen issue when they knew full well they would abuse their authority to deny any opportunity to respond with truthful evidence and testimony. Anyone with an ounce of commosense can immediately see the dicta was an absurd and ridiculouspack of lies, and they were so denounced by other legal authorities. In particular, the claim that the United States obtained its common-law from English common-law, which is an outrageous falsehood. So, anyone who tries to use Ankeny v. Governor as an authority on the natural born citizen clause is either fooling themselves or engaging in gross dishonesty.
In other words,, Ankeny v. Governor is an even more absurd miscarriage of law and justice than the Chief Justice Roberts decision to find Obamacare was not a tax. These justices should have been impeached for engaging in high crimes in that case.
Nope, neither one of them, not voting for any GOP incumbent again. Rubio wouldn’t make a difference, the latinos are in the bag for the dems, they own the latinos and minorities lock, stock, and barrel. Obama and crew have a mandate now to keep them on the dole. The takers have tipped the balance of power in this country in their favor, now it’s only downhill from here on out.
The electorate has shifted hard left.
We couldn`t even get a moderate like Romney elected, sure as hell the idea of Rubio is dead in the water.
America is a center-left country that doesn`t embrace conservatism anymore. That was made abundantly clear last night.
