What you are doing is the equivalent of calling Kasich a Pollock, Carson an African, Trump a Kraut, and Sanders a Jew.
That is not the kind of behavior that should be acceptable here. I'm not talking about politically incorrect speak, I'm talking about factually incorrect slander.
All of these candidates are Americans. Like them or not, believe they are natural born or not, they are Americans.
I agree, 100%. However, I might note that calling Sanders a Jew does not take away from his being an American (a strange and deluded one, but an American nonetheless) any more than calling someone a Christian takes away from their being an American.
Let's at least TRY to get back toward some higher level of civility in politics (and here on FR, as well). I would hope that the time from last week's debate to now will mark a low-point in American politics, though I don't believe that it will.
NOW, as far as Rubio and his stance on guns is concerned, here are my thoughts:
First, I condemn him for that vote.
Second, I have believed, since the time that he joined the Gang of 8, that he was not a genuine conservative/Tea Party type, but that he merely jumped on the bandwagon in order to get elected. I'm not sure that the entire story on Rubio is out yet, but from what I can see he is NOT that conservative and is NOT the candidate for me. YMMV.
Midget rubio needs to throw in the towel and join the jeb catchin’ frogs.
