Rubio promises limited government as president

“The Chinese are landing airplanes on islands that they built”, Rubio said, forcing a smile. “And I just don’t think this country can afford to elect a president that will not stand up and undo the damage Barack Obama has done to this country”. But the rhetoric against the USA Freedom Act has not led to concern by supporters of his White House bid who also backed – or even advocated for – to have concerns about Rubio or his message. Ted Cruz’s, R-Texas, presidential campaign then commented Rubio’s boots. It is described as Commander in Chief.

He said immigration is a different issue than it was a few years ago because ISIS is using the system to infiltrate risky people into the U.S.

Rubio’s path to the nomination is less clear.

During his speech, Rubio avoided criticizing any of his Republican challengers. He called for term limits on Congress and federal judges; insisted on no amnesty for undocumented immigrants; and had a message for veterans. Rubio believes that Assad has to go.

New York Times reporter Michael Barbaro discovered the platforms – a favorite of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy – tweeting that Rubio was ‘rocking some seriously fashionable black boots’.

“We’ve contrasted Gov. Kasich’s successful record with that of Christie and other candidates in the past and will continue to share the governor’s record with New Hampshire voters moving forward”, said Connie Wehrkamp, a spokeswoman for the group. He’s in third nationally in an average of recent polls, significantly lagging two rivals who have made anger the hallmark of their campaign rhetoric: Rubio is about 24 points behind Trump and 9 points behind Cruz.

And heaven help Obama if he had run an ad about what it meant to grow up as a person of color in the United States.

“I want to know how she’s going to lecture me about student loans, because I had a student loan”. His top strategist, Mike DuHaime, said the reason other candidates are hitting Christie is obvious: “Because we are on the rise and they are not”.

“He represents a generational shift”. “In an election where turnout has never reached 50,000 for a Republican caucus, the campaign that turns out the extra four or five thousand people beyond its goal probably wins”. “It doesn’t do us any good to have someone who’s 100% ideologically pure, if he can’t win”. “It entails a whole bunch of us who have contacts across the state to get on the horn and start making some phone calls. He has credibility among conservatives, but he’s not so stridently conservative that alienates people in the middle”.

As the New York Times’ fashion critic, Vanessa Friedman, pointed out, the boots have earned Rubio more sartorial scrutiny than this year’s female candidates, who are usually the target of such fixations.

“If we capture a terrorist alive, we’re not reading them Miranda rights, they’re not going to be hired a lawyer and we’re going to give them a one-way ticket to Guantanamo, where we’re going to find out everything they know”, Rubio said Tuesday, speaking to a standing-room-only crowd of close to 200 gathered at a trucking company headquarters in Fort Dodge, Iowa.
