I think selecting Rubio because he is ‘hispanic’ would be a really bad idea.

Most of the ‘hispanics’ in this country are Mexican. Rubio did point out that hispanics are suffering more under Obama’s policies. That goes for blacks as well, of course, but blacks will vote for Obama even if he calls them ‘the help.’

There are other reasons to consider Rubio. He brings youth and likeability, cannot be intimidated or befuddled by the press (Chris tried) and is kind of a breath of fresh air.

But although his experience is more valid than Obama’s, he is rather inexperienced. Maybe next time.

Why should we fall for the identity politics. Who says the Mexicans are going to leave the plantation when the DNC will offer them all sorts of goodies starting with Amnesty.

How about the Repubs for once choose somebody for their qualifications rather than what group they need to pander to. They will never win that way.

Paul Ryan would be a great choice and put the discussion right where it needs to be, the economy and budget. Newt would even be better or Bachmann, Santorum.

Pray for America

I thought it was the RAT party that panders to the "groups" - the homos, the illegals, the felons, the unions, the poor, the blacks, the hispanics, etc. NOW the GOP is gonna start this? IF the GOP has a death wish go ahead - otherwise the GOP should start selling the American Idol sheeple of America on the virtues of liberty and conservatism.
