obama created precedent for future president. All you need is to be born in the US. If they disqualify Rubio, then they automatically disqualify every law obama passed. I highly doubt that will happen, so rubio is safe to run

I agree he is ineligible, but this is why i would want him on the ticket. To point out that Obama is also ineligible.

Irregardless, so you say we now adopt illegal stances as part of the conservative move to retake our country? Hogwash! Fall into their trap and we will be forever stained with what the Democrats have become.

Take the high road. Rubio is smart to downplay his perceived acceptance by not putting a definitive end to it. He knows he is far more important as a member of the Senate for his state than he would be if he were to actually entertain the VP idea. By keeping it in play he raises his stature in the Party as well as his future power to drive legislation that a friendly White House would be inclined to support.

Besides, we finally have a good Senator from this state, why open the door for the chance of another RINO weaseling its way in. I say get rid of beady-eyes Nelson and build a conservative base in Florida with Rubio as the model. Some complain about perceived co-opting in some policy statements, but they cannot disagree he is far better than Le Mieux (sp) or the inspiring /sarc McCollum.

“I highly doubt that will happen, so rubio is safe to run.”

That’s not the question or answer.

Article II of the Constitution was written to protect the US from those that may not have the best interests of the US at heart. Rubio is safe????? The Founders would wonder if the Republic was safe.
