Yeah. We know only too well you and your ilk will.
I like Rubio, he's my Senator and early on, I was an ardent supporter of him in the VP slot. However, I'm starting to think that he might not yet be ready. I think he needs some further polishing to become the statesman that he certainly has the potential to be. Furthermore, after Obama's recent coup on the immigration issue, Rubio has become a bit polarizing with some of the comments he's made and positions he's taken. In an election this important, we can't afford to have the VP pick saddled with controversial positions that might further alienate certain segments of voters.
Finally, I'll concede this eligibility thing. While you and I know that Rubio is perfectly eligible for the office, if as many as five percent of (thoroughly misinformed) voters out there see Rubio as ineligible and refuse to vote for him, this is going to be a big problem for Romney.
This being said, If Romney picks Rubio, I'll support the ticket enthusiastically (as I will regardless of who Romney picks).

Are you so sure? I think even Chester Arthur disagreed with you. After the assassination of President Garfield, he assumed the office of Presidency. He knew he was not constitutionally qualified. That is why he went to great lengths to hide the fact that at the time of his birth, his father was not a US citizen. He even lied about his his own date of birth! There is no argument that Chester Arthur was born on US soil. So the reason he lied about his parentage and date of birth is because if the treue facts were known, he would not be considered a NBC. And he knew it.How about you?
