Marco Rubio Doesn’t Know If President Obama Is An American Citizen (Kendrick Meeks(D)for FL Senate)
KendrickMeek.com ^ | October 25, 2010 | Press Team

MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. -- Continuing to show Rubio is just too extreme for Florida, the Kendrick Meek campaign released a new slide to its "Too Extreme for Florida" website that highlights Rubio's assertion that he doesn't know if President Obama is a citizen of the United States.

Last year, when Rubio was asked if he thought President Obama's birth certificate was fake when speaking in front of a Tea Party crowd, Rubio replied, "I don't know the answer to that."

Rubio declines to say whether President Obama is a U.S. citizen. In a profile in the Miami Herald, "[Rubio] declines to venture an opinion on President Barack Obama's U.S. citizenship. 'I don't know the answer to that,' Rubio equivocated when asked at the GOP women's club whether the president's birth certificate is valid. Rubio's response signals that he's moved farther to the right since term limits forced him out of the Florida House last year though he said during the trip, 'I won't change who I am to get elected.'" (Miami Herald, "Marco Rubio Warming Up Panhandle Voters",11/2/09 )

>"Perhaps the left is ready to clean the slate for Hillary. "

Nahhhh.... B Wacky is her lackey!

Her electable numbers were/are unquestionably not.

She gets him to do her dirty work. She comes in to clean up/save the day.

She gets her agenda, without the dirty hands.

You may be right rawcatslyentist. I have not paid attention to her polling numbers. But I also wasn't paying attention to writing. What I intended to say was:

The press didn't know enough, or did and wanted to suppress the true issue, which was to ask if Rubio thought Obama was a “natural born citizen” as required to hold the office of the Presidency.

To back it up, Hawaii's dept. of health gave Obama a paper that says "this isn't his birth certificate, but we say he was born here, and our proof is, well, we say he was born here."
But they forgot to mention, the form, forgery or not, includes a notation which indicates it is the form used when the registrant is filing an unverified birth for a child born outside of Hawaii. They do keep getting tangled up in their stories....

Isn’t it absolutely crazy to think suggesting that someone may not be natural born is extreme. You would think that you were suggesting that they were made out of blue cheese.

He gave the only answer an honest man in his position could give. I don’t know if Barry is a citizen. All I know is I haven’t seen a stitch of evidence indicating that he is.

It didn’t work the last time that was tried in 2008. McCain produced his records and obtained a Congressional bill affirming his eligibility, including Senator Obama’s vote. Obama then proceeded to stonewall and deny all efforts to disclose his equivalent records.

Actually this is very like what liberals do because they know enough of the 'high' minded moderate big TARP Republicans will carry their deception for them. Some days it takes the Hubble telescope to distinguish the difference between high minded moderate Republican and limo liberals clamoring for a cap-n-trade green economy for the rest of US.

" Last year, when Rubio was asked if he thought President Obama's birth certificate was fake when speaking in front of a Tea Party crowd, Rubio replied, "I don't know the answer to that." .....

And Marco is honestly telling the truth, we do not know the answer to that, for he ( Obama ) has not shown any verifiable documentation ( other than his jackboot activist providing a fake COLB on the Internet ) to prove that he is eligible to be president of the USA.

" Did Rush really flub up? "

Maybe he did, maybe he didn't, but, Rush sure like to set the liberals up for a fall.
Imagion that ? the liberals searching under every rock to see and prove that Marco is not a Natural Born Citizen, but, on the other hand, deny us the right to ask that Obama provide his birth certificate to prove if he is a Natural Born Citizen...
This Marco Rubio is trying Obots and anti-Birthers and after-birthers in knots.... all their arguments are moot at this point because if they go after Marco, they are showing their true colors..

In their minds, asking Obama to prove that he is eligible, is bad, asking Marco to prove that he is eligible, is good.

Rubio is an honest man, unlike Obamao or most of the kooks who accept his citizenship without proof. But Obamao’s real place of birth is a minor distraction for the masses and minions. Where was his teleprompter made? Without that, Obamao is flop-sweat.

Rubio is not going to be marginalized by this. If birthers had a clue they would just shut up. Birthers are quickly labeled crazy and worse by all media and all reputable news outlets.

...”Oh. I get it. Instead of providing evidence that Soetoro is a citizen, the question gets settled by labeling anyone who asks for evidence as “extreme.”

That’s kind of how they built a “consensus” about global warming, isn't it?”...

YES! These are the people who degrade and viciously label anyone who will not fall in line with their madness. And, it is madness not to require proof of matters which might be lies and as such, have the power to bring down a nation.
People just want the truth and, so far, those who can provide the investigations to find that truth are not willing to do so..For political reasons, of course.

Well, the Democrats have been adamant that we, the peons of the United States, have no standing in the courts to question the Kenyan usurper's eligibility, and that only the Congress could do so.

Guess what, Democrats? We now run the House. Even by the Democrats' swinish rules, we now have unquestionable standing in the House of Representatives to question the Kenyan Clown's eligibility.

I certainly hope that at least one committee in the Congress will have enough fortitude to do so.

When enough people state the obvious: "Barack Obama is hiding his long form birth certificate from the public", the discourse may change. Too many people get hung up on other details. No one can argue that he has made his long form birth certificate public.

I'm sure that if enough people see this post many will respond with details that I believe are irrelevant. The bottom line is that he won't release his long form birth certificate, and with out that, no one knows where he was born. That statement is simple, to the point, and indisputable.
