I’m tired of Marco already.
RIGHT, to be a “CITIZEN”. Natural born citizen, is another matter. About that YOU ARE WRONG! Original Intent AND the Supreme Court agree that to be an Article II, Section 1, Clause 5, Natural Born Citizen, you have to be born in the country AND BOTH parents had to be citizens. It couldn't be any clearer.
Did you not see the long article a few days ago?
“Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) is vowing to break with conservatives”
What other vows of conservatism is he willing to break?
Both of his parents were US Citizens when he was born?
Nowhere in the constitution is mom and dad mentioned. Anywhere.
Don't be a rube. The constitution doesn't define hardly any of its terms.
Yep, and so would Jeb.
According to the first naturalization law of 1790, while the founders were still extant and in service to this nation - the children of citizens born overseas were natural born and thus in no need of naturalization. How is that for original intent?
Vattel never used the term “natural born citizen” - but he figured the indigenous or native citizens should be those born of citizens and in country (with a few exceptions) - and all others would have to be naturalized.
In all cases one is either natural born or one must be naturalized.
According to our Constitution and U.S. law; one is either natural born or naturalized.
There is no third type of citizenship currently. There was, and it was those who were citizens at the time of the adoption of the Constitution. Most of these were born as natural born subjects of England - and they did not have to be born in England of two citizen parents to be natural born subjects of England. They simply had to be born as subjects of England to be natural born subjects of England - and they were.
He’s “growing in office” and is “learning to play ball” all the while “reaching across the aisle” .....its the metamorphosis of a Conservative to a Rino....the final coup comes when he starts collecting “campaign donations” to his “re-election (oops..”retirement”) fund in return for his “bipartisanship”;
At that point he no longer is free to vote the Conservative/Constitutional ticket on behalf of We the People.He is then owned.
born May 28, 1971 in Miami, FL (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Mario Rubio born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.
Oria Garcia born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.
Parents were NOT US Citizens at the time of his birth (Does NOT meet the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Marco Rubio is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
Marco's status is the same as that of Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama, who is NOT a Natural Born Citizen.
You birthers make me laugh.
Have you checked under your bed for a boogieman ?
Our enemies.
Mitt Romney.
La Raza.
Bingo!
To everyone but conservatives.
You pro-Rubio folks were warned a long time ago.
Rubio’s parents were not citizens when he was born. He is not a NBC.

The Constitutional Meaning Of “Natural Born Citizen”
Vanity Essay | 31 January 2012 | sourcery
This says it better than any other one source that I know of on FR.
And Romney’s were born in the US ?
Quit chasing your tail.
LOL, is there some story behind ‘bistec de palomilla’ steak of moth?
Perhaps so. I had high hopes for him a few years back.
I agree with your thoughts here. Rush used to talk about the futility of compromising with Liberals. You can’t compromise with someone when you are supporting sound policy, and they are supporting totalitarianism or anarchy. If you move one inch off sound policy, it’s a loss.
Yes, we always have our McCains, Grahams, Snows... when the Dems come calling. One Republican in the Senate that votes with the Democrats, has a louder voice than the 45 who didn’t.
I’m sick of that.
Parents don’t have to be born in the US, just citizens. I’ve read there is some doubt about Romney’s father, I have no idea.
Your nastiness and leftist garbage talking points are duly noted.
Perhaps you had better vision than me, but some of his most early and visible actions seemed sound to me.
