Title: Marco Rubio : Up or Down?
Post by: muman613 on April 22, 2015, 04:39:43 PM: Shalom,

Last night my Mexican-American Mormon friend and his son dropped by for a visit. I spent most of our visit showing them the Clinton Scandal videos but during the conversation they asked me about Marco Rubio. I have not paid much attention to him but his name is increasingly in the media as a possible 2016 Republican Presidential candidate. I am still firmly in Ted Cruz camp but considering the press is pretty much writing him off, Rubio needs to be examined as a possible candidate. I was told that Mr Rubio has pro-Israel creds so I looked into it and found the following:

Please share any thoughts on this potential candidate...

As I said, before last night I knew nothing about Mr Rubio.... Here he is asked where he stands on 'amnesty'.

I don't have it, but there is info out there why he joined "the gang of 8", and why he is against it now. Something about, trying to do something, because Osama will use an executive order, and future Republicans won't be able to reversed the law once they're in office.
He is my second pick.

How do you figure this? From what I understand he is the youngest Senator in the building and has less experience than Obama did... So how is he an establishment politician?
