rubio’s washdc said the same thing.
the staffer believes he is a natural born citizen because he’s a citizen.

So Arnold Scwarenegger is eligible?

i tried playing with nelson’s office, pretending to be a dem concerned rubio would be on the ticket

the female i spoke with was sympathetic ... and quickly realized if rubio were to be bashed by dems for not being eligible due to his lack of NBC status, then 0bama would also not be eligible.

she then kicked into the claims that citizens are natural born citizens. i asked what the difference would be... and she tossed in naturalized. after allowing for people born in the US, excluding naturalized, i got her to a point where she was trying to explain the difference between a citizen and a NBC if both were born in the US. she got flustered and we ‘got cut off’

funny how those government phones are so quirky these days

rubio should withdraw from consideration... explaining his lack of NBC status disqualifies him from the VP slot.

when asked how... he would be able to state that his parents weren’t US citizens at his birth... thereby making him ‘only’ a US citizen... but not a natural born citizen

and let it go there.

the inference hanging in the air.

additionally, it would be good to see the senator state he will endeavor to uphold his oath of office by insuring the integrity of florida’s ballot... demanding all candidates, and their running mates, are eligible to assume office before being placed on the ballot.

(ahhh... integrity.... i can dream, can’t i?)
