Rubio is not eligible to be president. He is not a natural born citizen. Neither is Obama.
The Constitution just continues to get crapped on.
Oh. Never mind, then.
Depends on how you define natural born citizen.
TED CRUZ (and plenty of others) define it as being a citizen the day you were born...”from birth” on, you are a citizen. They say the other kind of citizen is one who is not a citizen from the day of birth, but instead becomes naturalized through the naturalization process.
Shocker, I know, to you, but Ted Cruz claims citizenship at birth from being born to an American citizen mother of legal age (18). That his mother was working in Canada the day of his birth has nothing to do with anything. He is not a Canadian citizen. He is not a man without a country. He never had to become naturalized in order to be a citizen. He was one from birth onward. According to that definition of natural born citizen, he is.
I don’t know Rubio’s exact history and am not interested in it. I am afraid that Rubio has chosen most unwisely in this immigration bill cause. I have concluded that Rubio isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. I’m still trying to decide what Rand Paul’s excuse is...
I’m well aware that the United States recognizes “anchor babies”...an illegal alien crosses the border into America and has a baby and that supposedly makes baby a citizen. This is a stupid choice that this country’s rulers have made. It should not be allowed, and it causes great confusion in peoples’ minds because they think everyone everywhere is automatically not a U.S. citizen if not born on American soil. Not true, but the allowance of anchor baby citizens here makes many believe that.
Rubio can go away, for all I care. He’s an inspirational speaker and that’s about it.
The new eligibility standard is not being eligible. Obama, Rubio, Cruz... Crazy
Rubio is dead in the water. Birth business aside a lot of people, myself included, will see the GOP burn before they vote to put another two faced RINO on the ticket.
McCain is lying through his teeth with that crap about “we were going to secure the borders”. If they were, they would have done it already, not *after* they get their amnesty bill. Sounds like a 10 year old, “I was gonna do it”.
And, what I would pay for the opportunity to say to McCain’s and Rubio’s faces, close up: It’s NOT immigration. It’s illegal aliens coming over the border. Illegal immigration is an oxymoron. They can’t be immigrants unless they come in legally. You’ve never enforced our border laws and you have no intention of doing so in the future.
McCain is essentially admitting he lied about his intentions regarding “immigration” simply to get the nomination. I’d love 10 uninterrupted minutes to chew his ass out one on one.
Jeez, these b@stards can shovel the dung at us.
True. Plus, it’s obvious to me that Rubio wants to use shamesty as a poison pill for the 2016 race. After legalizing, or semi-legalizing millions of hispanics, what choice would the Republicans have but to nominate a hispanic?
Rubio is eligible because he was born here, but he’s blown his opportunity due to this immigration bill. I called his office early on and tried to warn him, but apparently, my call along with my emails went unheeded. He blew it.
