He is a natural born citizen if both parents were citizens at the time of his birth... Watch for liberals to suddenly agree with that as soon as he starts to look like a serious candidate (assuming Obama is gone).

A non-trivial percentage of conservatives won't vote for Rubio because of this issue so it had better be decided by SCOTUS in favor of Rubio being NBC before he he is nominated. It won't just go away.

That's the biggest BS you can put on this board!

We cannot have it both ways. Obama is not a NBC and should be removed, thus Rubio is not eligible IF he is not a NBC. What will be interesting is if a case goes to SCOTUS after Obama is out of office, which declares he was ineligible.

“A non-trivial percentage of conservatives won’t vote for Rubio because of this issue so it had better be decided by SCOTUS in favor of Rubio being NBC before he he is nominated. It won’t just go away.”

Indeed the Rubio-birthers are not, as one might naively expect, lib Dembs pushing a fringe theory to try to disqualify a talented and promising Republican. No, they’re conservatives, boxed into the stupid position against Rubio because they so vehemently, albeit uselessly, asserted it against Obama.

That’s why not to go for crank theories. They’re useless against your enemies, and can make you useless to you friends.
