Senator Rubio is evidently not up to speed with the reality that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution the specific power to regulate immigration, the president’s power to grant amnesty limited to those who break constitutionally defensible federal laws imo.

This makes Sen. Rubio another good example of why the ill-conceived 17th Amendment should have never been ratified, state lawmakers foolishly giving up their voices in Congress by doing so.

The 17th Amendment needs to disappear.

Sheesh! That could likely be said about every big donor out there. Everybody knows if you have money, you’ve got the attorneys to find the loopholes. If Cruz didn’t pay His taxes, that would be a problem, but I don’t see this as getting much traction.

Wonder if they’ll ever get around to scrutinizing Hillary’s Foundation donors?

Bush and Paul are the ones I would never ever vote for and then it would be Rubio.
Then again if Christie thinks he might have a chance then add him to the ones I would never vote for too.

Not Ted Cruz’s taxes that they are harping on, but his big money donor Mercer that they are crying foul for not paying his taxes..

In his interview with Hannity I could have sworn he said that would be one of the first things he would do.

My take on that is ,Big Whoop! The guy has been investigated for years. If there was anything there he would have been nailed. This is just more targeting of Conservatives. Likely he was targeted by the IRS at the behest of Lois Lerner.

Just confirms my opinion of yesterday’s announcement by Rubio - *insert bronx cheer*

What fix?

Watching him on Hannity, Rubio has no fire in the belly and you can see in his eyes he knows he’s not going to get close to the nomination. Probably trolling for VP slot.

Speaking to all the “me too” no chance runners, all I can say is there must be good money in running for POTUS, which can easily be converted to personal $.

Great find. Indeed every repub should read that article and check everyone of those 12 points out for themselves. Indeed Walker has some issues that should give conservatives pause.

Thanks. I hope it will make a few people think before getting on the Walker bandwagon. My gut is seldom wrong and something seemed “off” with Walker from the beginning.

Rubio: “I cannot imagine a scenario where a future president is going to take away the [legalized] status they’re going to get [under Obummer’s executive amnesty].”

Fail.

can’t wait until Rubio gets asked

Rubio is still dancing all around the issue. He is for it. He is against it. Depends on which audience he is pandering to.

Rubio isn’t very intelligent. Moreover, he thinks he’s slick. He will be gone soon, unless Jeb or a rich Establishment Republican/group throws money at him.
