“We need Marco Rubio on the GOP Ticket.”

Sorry, no.

Marco, while being a strong Conservative voice in the Senate, has yet to demonstrate executive leadership abilities, even to be the Majority/Minority leader in the Senate. The two qualities are not the same.

Besides he is Constitutionaly ineligible, hence his oft stated declining to consider running.

Touting the Conservative voice de jour as the next president is a trait I do not find attractive. It implies a certain lack of critical and reasoned thought, and labels the touter as one too lazy to do the long term work of a patriot.

Hoping for a silver bullet in the form of this or that person as president illustrates a basic ignorance of how our goverment works, and how it was intended to work. Sorry, but the President, no matter what Obama, or others, think, is not the King or Dictator........he wasn’t elected to “rule.”

While being both the Head of Goverment, and the Head of State, the President is more of a figurehead with Influence write large. The real work of Goverment happens in the legislature. That is where all goverment policy on taxes, foriegn affairs, War, the economy etc. starts....

Can we agree to consentrate on electing conservative voices in our state and federal legislative offices first????

Marco Rubio fills one of those positions now, lets send help him in righting our ship of state in the 2012 election cycle.
