Donald Trump says he's not sure whether Marco Rubio is eligible for the presidency.
And Rubio says it's just the latest in a line of Trump's "outrageous" comments designed to suck up media attention.
Rubio is a U.S. citizen who was born in Miami. He is, in fact, eligible for the presidency -- even though his parents migrated from Cuba.
But Trump stirred controversy on Saturday by retweeting a message suggesting that neither Rubio nor Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who was born in Canada to a U.S. citizen mother, meet the constitutional requirements for the Oval Office....

Maybe he can sue both at the same time. Two for one. He’s such a jackass.
Nicely played.
These guys need to settle this question. Trump sad Cruz’s position is precarious. They need to settle this question. The demrats will go wild over this!
Eligible or not, Rubio is too stupid to be President.
So you will go from being a Cruzbot to a Trumpbot? You will be pissing off everyone except the Rubiobots.
Are you really fecesing me? It was Trump who blew the whole Obama birth certificate issue wide open, forcing him to release a forged copy.
Sheesh
It’s better to be Mister 33% Man than it is to be Mister 22% Man, ain’t it?
Did he stop beating his wife?
Once you vote in the Primary, then the only choosing available to you will be on November 8 between the Repub and Demoncrat candidates.
Unless you vote for an Independent Party candidate.
“Does he think Obamaâs eligible?”
Wasn’t Donald Trump going to produce Obama’s birth certificate?
There was a front page story in the Indianapolis Star that the state election board just approved both Rubio and Cruz for the primary ballot here in May. Turns out someone had challenged both of the on the NBC issue. I’m guessing this has been happening across the country.
Of course, now that Rubio has risen, it’s all tat the Donald needs to start laying the wood to Kid Rubio as he has done to Cruz over the past weeks...I’m guessing though that the MSM, certainly pro-Rubio Fox News won’t touch this subject for Rubio...
Looks like Hillary and The Donald have one thing in common:
There is an excellent video making the rounds of a woman explaining the term natural born as the founder’s understood it.
It has nothing to do with where you are born. It is rather, an attribute that you inherit from your parents (like your eye color).
If your parents were citizens, then you inherit your citizenship from your parents. It is part of your NATURE, because it was part of their NATURE. Hence the term NATURAL born.
Under that scenario, Cruz would be natural born (because his mother was a citizen—he inherited her nature), but Rubio would not (because neither of his parents were citizens at the time of his birth—he inherits their non-citizen nature).
Rubio would be a CITIZEN because he was born in the USA, but he would NOT be a NATURAL BORN citizen, because his parents were not citizens at the time of his birth.
Had Rubio’s parents become citizens before he was born, then he would be a natural born citizen, because he could inherit his citizenship from his parents.
Found the video. It is worth the 12 minutes of your time.

Yup, that bot has bit the big pro/con amnesty weinie.
Trump has almost ignored Rubio for the past few months.
I don’t know if this means Trump is going after Rubio now, or if this is an isolated example.
Yet Rubio has yet to win even one state.
Why don’t you call Cruz Mr 20 percent man.
So all the Cruzbots have to call Rubio the Rubio-twerp.
Hmmmm....
So sue them and adjudicate the matter.
Then we can undo 8 years of Hussein...
same here.
