Title: Marco Rubio: The man who would be veep Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on September 19, 2011, 06:24:33 PM http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/182219-marco-rubio-the-man-who-would-be-veep
I really like this young man. A true conservative. Quote The battle for the Republican presidential nomination is just heating up. But the choice of running mate is as good as settled, at least if the Beltway buzz is to be believed. “Right now, he is head and shouders above everybody else,” Florida-based GOP strategist Rick Wilson told The Hill. “Rubio has the most important ingredient of any leader: vision,” conservative columnist Cal Thomas wrote. Rubio laid out a worldview that sounded strikingly magnanimous. “Conservatism is not about leaving people behind,” he said. “Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them the tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. And our programs to help them should reflect that.” Rubio turned his attention to foreign policy last Tuesday, with an address at the Jesse Helms Center in North Carolina. “If we refuse to play our rightful role and shrink from the world, America and the entire world will pay a terrible price,” he insisted. |
