That is extreme and silly. You can be conservative and not take such an extreme postition on immigration.

Enforcing our laws including limits on immigration is not extreme. Even Bill Clinton did it to some extent.

Rubio and his immigration soulmates Obama and Clinton are the extremists. Continued high immigration forever and rewarding illegals with legalization is an extreme position.

I believe we control the border, make it next to impossible to work in this country legally and find away to deal with people who have been here for as much as a quarter century. Good grief Ronald Reagan could not get elected on this site.

“Good grief Ronald Reagan could not get elected on this site.”

Ronald Reagan wasn’t an anchor baby who sells out to the highest bidder because he can’t handle money.

Rubio was handpicked and easily compromised because he’s BROKE...he cannot handle $. I have more personal wealth than Rubio has! But he made MUCH more $ than I ever did.

Forbes’ 2016 Presidential Candidate Wealth List
Net worth Rubio $100,000
Florida senator has a house, boat, kids college plans and lots of debt
UP FOR SALE!!

Rubio was handpicked by the open border/sloppy trade cartel.

Agree with controlling the border. A wall is the first step. Agree with making it impossible to work here illegally. E-verify and resurrecting worksite enforcement with criminal penalties for willfully violating employers would go along way toward that goal.

Disagree vehemently with rewarding law-breakers for getting away with law breaking. They get "dealt with" by going home. They had 10 to 20 years of illegal residence and employment and public schooling in the USA. They should be thankful for that. We owe them nothing.

A lot of what you say has merit. Rubio hand picked is nonsense.

So we are 66% in agreement then actually more really. I think they should go home too. Just not sure you can round them up. My personal opinion is Rubio learned his lesson. I sill think he is the mist electable and most conservative cabdidate (that can win) that we have had since Reagan and I worked in Reagan’s campaign.

RUBIO: "I enjoy working with humans, and have the greatest enthusiasm for the mission."

We all knew Rubes was a phony and GOP-Establishment hack.

If RushRINO thought Rubes was a “full throated conservative”, then either RushRINO is not as intelligent as he (and many others) thinks he is or RushRINO is just another Establishment hack for the GOP-E.

Actually, RushRINO is both...

” Rubio hand picked is nonsense.”

Okay.....then tell me how a lowly state rep gets a high paid operater like Cesar Conda to be his chief of staff? Do you know who Cesar Conda is? If you vote, you best find out.

I know. That proves nothing. I am more informed than you may know. My favorites are Cruz and Trump. I am from Texas and I voted for Ted. I just don’t think they have a prayer to win. I hope I am wrong. L

“I know. That proves nothing.”

Well, it sure does. How does it profit you to deny it? Conda is also the guy who put Paul Ryan into DC politics.

So I will go all in. Paul Ryan will end up being one of the House Speakers we have ever had. The complete non compromising attitude her will only insure more grid lock. Oh I know that is a good thing. No it isn’t.

Rubio is an empty suit whose comments are programmed. His parents were not citizens, which will mean years of litigation in the rare case he wins the nomination.

Why don’t you just come out and admit you approve of Ryan’s sell outs on Trade, immigration....well, basically anything Obama wants. Just like Rubio...JUST LIKE Norquist and Conda tell him to act.

Forgive me, I see no need of discussion when someone cares little about the sovereignty of this nation. Carry on.

Yes it is. Anti-Free-America criminals being “gridlocked” is a good thing.

Funny. Cruz has a much bigger problem. He is a gifted and will do well.

Ok fine by me. Rubio can win. That’s all I am saying. He is a conservative no matter what you say. I just don’t think the others can. You are free to disagree.

Yeah I knew it. Grid lock is better. Geez, exactly why we can never win.
