This article's definition of "natural born citizen" is the one I find most compelling. His parents were in the U.S. legally and seeking to become naturalized citizens. That his parents had fled Fidel Castro also demonstrates that they owed no allegiance to a foreign power.

I understand that there have been Supreme Court decisions that complicate this; it will be interesting to see how it all works out.

Rubio’s parents left Cuba in 1956. Fidel was hiding out in Mexico - nobody “fled” him at that time.
