Im through with him, said KrisAnne Hall, a tea party activist and attorney from Florida, the Daily Beast reported.He will never get my vote.
The overwhelming perception is that Marco Rubio is not a tea party candidate. <---- sounds like he used you Teabaggers and now you no likey him
Meanwhile, others say Rubios not even a natural-born citizen and therefore, ineligible to seek the presidency. Rubios parents, as WND previously reported on at least two occasions, were not U.S. citizens at the time of his birth.
Rubio was born in Miami, Fla., on May 28, 1971, to Mario and Oriales Rubio who were born in Cuba, though the senator has not released his birth certificate for the world to scrutinize.
As WND reported in 2011, Rubios press secretary Alex Burgos said the senators parents were permanent legal residents of the U.S. at the time Marco was born in 1971.

(9,148 posts)I was preparing to leave for college in summer of 71.
Marco has no knowledge of an era that demanded all life dreams of young men be suspended while the Draft of Soldiers to the Vietnam War took them far away.
The only dream they held from there on was to simply return home.
Marco is a child.

(764 posts)so many of the men here hunt and play hard and when it comes to politics they go with the tea party, probably because is as extreme as it gets as far as being independent. Where do they come up with this? I got no clue because its pretty far from my thinking but that's what it is and I really wonder who they are going to back in this batch of GOP stars. I think many of the tea party are going to sit 2016 out, we shall see. Rubio lives off of other peoples attention. I don't give him mine hes worthless.

(27,575 posts)He is a very competent administrator. He has the best Senate office I have ever had to deal with to try to get something done.
He showed me through that, that he cares about immigration in a serious way. OF COURSE THE CONSERVABRATS HATE HIM.
He is probably the most intelligent, energetic and competent of a clown car full of buffoons, rubes, gas bags and libertarians.
If he does get nominated, be very afraid.
...thus ends the last good thing I will ever say about Sen. Rubio
