He's in! And for those of you who will complain that he said he wasn't in, ALL (almost all) VEEP prospects initially say they're not in. In fact it is considered poor form to signal that you want the VEEP slot.

BTW, there is NO separate category as "Native Born Citizen." It is strictly a subset of Natural Born Citizen...but that won't stop the Know Nothings from weighing in on this.

HE CANNOT TAKE THE VEEP SLOT BECAUSE HE CANNOT QUALIFY TO BE PRESIDENT.

LET’S STOP YAKKING OTHERWISE, OK?

He’d be a good choice, if he’s up for it. He’s a conservative, hispanic, Floridian. Florida is a swing State. Hispanic a swing demographic. Conservatives an unspoken-for voter block at the moment.

I’ve heard Nikki Haley’s name a bit. Jeb Bush, also. Wouldn’t mind seeing Jim DeMint’s or Newt Gingrich’s name entering the VP fray.

You know there are folks wjho will vote for Romney if Santorum is VP. You don’t know about Rubio and then there’s the heritage thing which could be an overshadowing problem.

If he’s in, he’s putting personal greed above the rule of law because he is not eligible and thus he is not worthy of the spot.

With luck, Rubio will run as VP, and the week before the election, romney the rino will be struck by lighting, then assuring Rubio will become president.

Uh, yes, Rubio DID close the door on VP slot:

Rubio Wants GOP DREAM Act in Place in Time for Fall College Semester

That moron wants to reward illegal alien parents who snuck into America by coddling their kids. Yeah, that's just what illegal aliens need - - another magnet to entice them to sneak in and have kids here. Yikes. Go away, Rubio.

I don’t see where it matters who RINO Romney picks for VP..

Would his choice somehow erase all of the reasons why he should not be in the White House?

Article 2, section one of the Constitution.
?No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
Nough said.

It won’t stop the wailing or the teeth-gnashing because Rubio’s skin is brown (which I personally think is the REAL issue here), but if he was indeed born in Florida (he was), he carries the CITIZENSHIP of the United States of America and all of the rights and privileges thereof and, due to the place of his birth, he gets the opportunity, if he so chooses, to run for President or be VP.

Think anchor-babies people. It’s not a stretch.
