Ann Coulter: Marco Rubio Shouldn’t Be Vice-President in 2012

Sen. Marco Rubio
Ann Coulter has never been known for spewing incessant niceties. The famed conservative political commentator is an outspoken voice in the conservative movement and she isn’t afraid to offend nor is she coy when it comes to disagreeing with her fellow talking heads.
In an interview on Monday night with FOX News’ Bill O’Reilly, Coulter doubled down on her belief that Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) should not be the 2012 vice-presidential candidate.
Following Rubio’s endorsement of GOP front-runner Mitt Romney and speculation that he may, indeed, be among candidates being considered for the vice-presidential slot, Coulter had some advice for the Florida politician. In a back-and-forth with O’Reilly, she said that Rubio should “keep doing what he’s doing.” Rather than seeking an executive-level spot, Coulter believes it would be prudent for the senator to wait eight years to run for president himself.
In addition to claiming that she doesn’t believe 2012 is an appropriate year for Rubio to seek nation’s second-in-command spot, Coulter reiterated her belief that Romney will win in November. Additionally, she said that the presidential candidate doesn’t need Rubio to take Florida.
Coulter and O’Reilly disagreed over Rubio’s usefulness as a Hispanic candidate running on the Republican ticket. While O’Reilly seems to believe he would be a benefit to the party, Coulter stated her stance against putting Rubio up simply because of his Cuban background.
“If we’re only picking Rubio because he’s a Hispanic, I’m just opposed to that on principle,” Coulter said. “The pandering…any Hispanic who’s going to vote for a ticket just because there’s a Hispanic on the ticket isn’t going to vote for a Republican anyway.”
While some may take these comments to mean that the commentator doesn’t particularly like Rubio, she claims this isn’t the case and that she “loves” the politician. However, his youth is a major factor that seems to play into her statements against his vice-presidential consideration.
Instead, Coulter explains that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie or Arizona Sen. Jon Kyl would be better options in 2012.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 10:43amHillibilly Clinton was naimed after Sir Hillary, when she was born before he was anywhere near a mountain. Rubio’s parents wer LEGAL but NOT citizens, until 5yrs after the birth of their son. This makes him a legal-citizen from birth but not a naturalborn…although he was born HERE… UNLIKE OUR POTUS, who’s father was never a citizen of our country. Oh don’t read the evidence-overwhelming…before you do an election.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 11:03amWE just elected a president for the same reason, he‘s ’black’ (or ‘claims’ he ‘is’ depending on his political motivation at the moment), three years ago and you can see how that worked out.
Electing someone for purely racist reasons or apologist reasons (white guilt) “IS” stupid. And this POTUS has proved that with a clarity that couldn’t have been orchestrated by design any better.
Rubio ‘IS’ a very astute politician. But, he’s also not a natural born citizen. And if we are ever going to get past the stench of this debacle we have to adhere to Constitutional requisites. Or we flush the entire thing, right down the crapper. Once the “precedent” has been established the SCOTUS WILL pull the handle.
And you can bet your last dollar, they can’t wait to do just that.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 11:29amG-Whiz, you are exactly on point. Rubio was born on American soil and therefore, like even the children born to illegal aliens, is a citizen of the United States.
Report Post »The constitution makes a distinction in regard to ‘citizen’ and ‘natural born citizen’. And that distinction does not apply to any elected official but to the president and by attachment the vice-president who is the direct heir to the highest office in the land should the president die while in office.
How can the American people condemn a non-natural born who sits in the White House now yet they are prepared to replace him with a candidate, who himself is not natural born, for vice-president bewilders me?
I love Rubio but am not about to ignore the foundation of the constitution so that my nations basic tenet of law can once again be ignored. I am not about to offer a wink and a prayer as did so many who placed Obama in office.

Posted on April 4, 2012 at 12:18pmThe Immigration and Naturalization Act, Section 301 gives definitions of who is and who is not a natural born citizen. According to this law, both Obama and Rubio are natural born citizens. Why do people constantly ignore the law to make some political point?
Report Post »reynols
Posted on May 17, 2012 at 2:17pmTo those who say a natural-born citizen and citizen by birth are the same thing, they are not. There are at least three types of citizens, natural-born, native-born, and naturalized. Naturalized are those who immigrated to the United States, applied for and received citizenship status. Native-born are those born within the jurisdiction of the United States. Natural-born are those born within the jurisdiction of the United States of *parents* (plural) not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty. It is defined in “The Law of Nations” which is one of the many things the founding fathers used in crafting the US Constitution. “The Law of Nations” also indicates a child inherits the citizenship of the father.
These definitions were recognized globally for many centuries. Sometimes people don’t define the definition of something when it is common knowledge. Study history.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 10:35amNEWS FLASH!! Ann Coulter makes comment on non-issue. * yawn * I got to meet Rubio when he gave a speech during a brief visit to our technology center here in N. Florida during his campaign for his seat. I‘ve met plenty of other politicians at state and federal levels and you feel you’re talking to a campaign speech robot. Rubio was engaging, not in a hurry, and talking with him you felt like you were having a conversation. I’m reminded of the Cheney vs. Lieberman debate in 2000. When asked a question, Cheney would look at Bernard Shaw and give an answer, a real answer, to the question. When Lieberman would answer he’d turn to the camera and give a political speech. Rubio is real and not caught up in handing and taking political acting lessons. Whether he gets the nod or not he’s suited for the job and would probably upstage Romney without even trying.
I used to really like A.C. and read her column and enjoyed seeing her on Hannity. But she’s become a blow-hard. It’s one thing to be a pundit and comment, in an informed way, on the issue under debate. It‘s another to approach it as if you’re convinced you’re the smartest person in the room.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 6:51pmTo Chet, Lillly*, RJL,..Wheezencrackers, If you haven‘t read the Constitution and other Founding Fathers’ books, or referred to the Supreme Court Case that defined a “Natural-born Citizen” as a baby born on U.S. property to two U.S. citizens, then you don’t know the difference between a citizen by birth or a “natural-born citizen.” There is a distinct difference, and only a natural-born citizen is eligible to be our President or Vice-President.
Just because you say there is no difference doesn’t make it so. Don’t believe everything you hear or read and say you know better. Do some research! Obama is not eligible for President in many ways, and he has broken so many Constitutional laws, he couldn’t be arrested by U.S. Marshalls and jailed any time, just like Holder. His father was a Kenyon-born British citizen, his step-father was an Indonesian citizen who also made Obama one with the name of Barry Soetoro and sent him to a Muslim school besides making it possible for him to get an Indonesian passport to countries who wouldn’t allow Americans. He was a foreign student in U.S. colleges, and more evidence than you can count that he was not born in Hawaii, used a fraudulent Soc. Sec. card and enlistment card.
So Marco Rubio isn’t eligible either, nor is any other candidate who is not a natural-born citizen.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 10:32amThis is for a plethora of posters on this subject:
1. I was a former fan of Ann Coulter, but she has lost her credibility because she features herself to be a “kingmaker”, she is arrogant, vain, and sounds like a broken record. I’ll be interested to see if her next book sells as well as prior writings.
.
2. Mitt Romney IS a conservative capitalist. His personal, business, and government life is evidence of that (you can’t govern Massachusetts in the same way you govern Georgia or Texas). Everyone has made a mistake in their past so remember that “first stone” verse from the Bible.
3. For those of you who don’t think Marco Rubio is a natural born citizen, PLEASE read the 14th Amendment. He was born in the United States of parents who were here legally so he IS a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN – case closed.
I would advise many of you to heed the words of Abraham Lincoln when he said ,,,,,,,,,
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 11:22amYou need to pay attention to the 14th amendment that you quote:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
This amendment clarifies citizenship, not natural born status, which is a requirement to be President.
In light of this, it would be advisable to be more careful about calling Ann or anyone else arrogant and vain, because your Lincoln quote at the end places you in the same category.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 12:52pmHELLO? HAVE YOU EVER DONE ANY RESEARCH? A natural born citizen is a person that is born of TWO UNITED STATES CITIZENS. Rubios parents where living here legally BUT WERE NOT CITIZEN OF THE USA. Therefore he is NOT a natural born citizen.
1 parent citizen 1 parent not = citizen
both parents not citizen = citizen
both parents citizens = natural born citizen
Just because someone legally lives in this country does not make them citizens. Rubio‘s parents were legally living here but did not apply for citizenship until AFTER Rubio’s birth. Making Rubio a citizen of the USA AND a citizen of Cuba at his birth.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 9:50amRubio is ineligible to hold either the office of President or Vice-President:
—————————
“Mario and Oriales Rubio became naturalized U.S. citizens on Nov. 5, 1975 – four years after Marco Rubio was born. That’s really all you have to know. That simple fact, one not in dispute, disqualifies him legally, barring an amendment to the Constitution, or a complete and deliberate misinterpretation of the Constitution, from being president or vice president. Those are the only two offices in the U.S. that have such a requirement.
The definition of natural-born citizen approved by the first U.S. Congress can be seen in the Naturalization Act of 1790, which regarded it as a child born of two American parents. The law, specifying that a natural-born citizen need not be born on U.S. soil, stated: “The children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States shall be considered as natural born citizens: Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States.”

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 1:12pmMARINE 25 YOU ARE WRONG. The act was NEVER repealed. it was superceded. READ……
The Act of 1790 was superseded by the Naturalization Act of 1795, which extended the residence requirement to five years.
Major changes to the definition of citizenship were ratified in the nineteenth century following the American Civil War. The Fourteenth Amendment in 1868 granted citizenship to people born within the United States regardless of their parents’ race, citizenship, or place of birth, but it excluded untaxed Indians (those living on reservations). The Naturalization Act of 1870 extended “the naturalization laws” to “aliens of African nativity and to persons of African descent
So you see you are incorrect. The 14th amendment changed NOTHING referring to NATURAL BORN CITIZENS. Only naturalized citizens. Totally different things.
People gotta read and learn BEFORE they speak.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 9:29amThe Right is making a HUGE and FATAL mistake by trying to court the hispanic vote. It‘s led to massive stupidity where the Right refuses to protest illegal immigration because they don’t want to alienate hispanic voters. But it isn’t working.
McCain is one of the most “liberal” Republicans in the country and was very, very soft on resisting illegal immigration. And hispanics rewarded him for it by coming out in droves to vote for Obama in 2008.
You politically correct right-wing idiots who are practicing wishful thinking in believing that we can convince hispanics to vote Right because “they’re naturally socially conservative” is a dangerous fantasy that’s going to totally backfire.
All you’re accomplishing by courting the hispanic vote is allowing more and more of them to flood our country until they become the new racial majority – as they’re projected to do by no later than 2050.
That will be the END of the Republican Party and America frankly.
Stop pandering to hispanics and blacks! It doesn’t work!
Come to grips with the reality that pretty much only Whites vote Republican and center your political strategy around that fact!
The only racial groups we have a small hope of slowly converting to the Right are East Asians and Jews since they aren’t lower class “gimme government handouts” ethnic groups.

THIS IS ABOUT MAKING A HISTORICAL STATEMENT FOR LONG TERM LIBERTY LOVING AMERICAN’S . PERIOD.
After the Death or Defeat of every Democrat…there must be economic growth and a drop in unemployment.
FREEDOM MUST BE ARTICULATED IN THE HALLS OF HISTORY.
so if you libertarians want to be heard….and if Ron Paul isn’t gonna run….the general election is the time to break asunder the Democratic Platform (socialism).
ps: Romney looks good in person & in a history book….the rest about him is sortof boring and contested considering all the concurrent lies going about during this season by both his detractors (1/3 are bigots) and even his idiot supporters.
God bless America! lol

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 8:39amRubio WILL NOT be the VP running mate. He’s a climber. Running with a RINO means he’ll get dragged thru the mud, with no ultimate upside, because Romney is not going to beat Obama. Why run with a loser?
Few republicans have ever lost an election when they run on a very “conservative” platform. Too bad Romney can’t figure this out, or simply isn’t conservative.
Nah, Rubio’s not going to be a part of this debacle and end up with mud on his face like Palin.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 8:31amSorry to be off topic and/or sound like a troll (not really), but Ann coulter looks like she would be a great character for the up and coming movie MIB III as one of the aliens that disguises themselves as a human. Did they fill all the roles yet?
On a more serious note, we all know that Ann has something for Christie and it is no surprise that she said his name. She does have a point though we should not elect and/or vote for people simply because of their race or ethnic background. We should vote for people that fall in line with ones values and what is best for the country.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 8:23amI agree with part of Coulters assessment. Romney will lose, Rubio should not be part of the ticket for multiple reasons part of which is his background.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 8:06amactually, HE CANT BE VICE PRESIDENT
when he was born, his parents were not citizens at the time of his birth , thus, just like obama, HE IS NOT A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
congressman is the highest office he can LEGALLY obtain
now, if his son, in the future wanted to run for office, he would , under the constitution, be eligible
not really a difficult concept to grasp

Well, if we were following good and natural and wholesome laws, it would take more than being born on our soil to be a citizen.
Since the laws were corrupted though, anything goes, really.

you obviously dont understand
obamas mommy was a citizen
obamas daddy was not
to be a natural born citizen, BOTH parents MUST be citizens at the time of childs birth
the fact that his mommy was a citizen only qualifies him for status as CITIZEN, and for any other reason, that would be enough
but,,,,,, the office of PRESIDENT has a constitutional REQUIREMENT for applicants to be NATURAL BORN CITIZENS, not just a citizen
it really is a simple concept ……………………….

The definition of natural-born citizen approved by the first U.S. Congress can be seen in the Naturalization Act of 1790, which regarded it as a child born of two American parents. The law, specifying that a natural-born citizen need not be born on U.S. soil, stated:
“The children of CITIZENS (plural, meaning two) of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States shall be considered as NATUAL BORN CITIZENS: Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States.”
The Act of 1790 was superseded by the Naturalization Act of 1795, which extended the residence requirement to five years.
Major changes to the definition of citizenship (BUT NOT NATURAL BORN) were ratified in the nineteenth century following the American Civil War. The Fourteenth Amendment in 1868 granted citizenship to people born within the United States regardless of their parents’ race, citizenship, or place of birth, but it excluded untaxed Indians (those living on reservations). The Naturalization Act of 1870 extended “the naturalization laws” to “aliens of African nativity and to persons of African descent
The 14th amendment changed NOTHING referring to NATURAL BORN CITIZENS. Only naturalized citizens. Totally different things. As is LAW BOTH parents MUST BE CITIZENS AT THE TIME OF THE BIRTH OF THE CHILD IN ORDER 4 THAT CHILD 2 BE

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 4:35pmThe Naturalization Act doesn’t say anything about people born IN this country, but the Supreme Court and the Congress have. They both say that they are all natural born citizens , no matter who their parents are. That’s been the law of the land for over a century, live with it.

There is NOTHING ANYWHERE that states that ALL people born in the USA are natural born citizens. There is nothing in the Constitution that says that and the SCOTUS has never rendered such a decision. I CHALLENGE YOU TO PROVE ME WRONG. Words are just that words. PROVE IT.

Posted on April 3, 2012 at 9:59pm“It thus clearly appears that by the law of England for the last three centuries, beginning before the settlement of this country, and continuing to the present day, aliens, while residing in the dominions possessed by the crown of England, were within the allegiance, the obedience, the faith or loyalty, the protection, the power, and the jurisdiction of the English sovereign; and therefore every child born in England of alien parents was a natural-born subject …
III. The same rule was in force in all the English colonies upon this continent down to the time of the Declaration of Independence, and in the United States afterwards, and continued to prevail under the constitution as originally established.”
That’s the Supreme Court from the 1898 US v Wong Kim Ark in which they ruled that anyone born here is a citizen by birth, which is the exact same thing as a natural born citizen, as indicated by their use of the phrase “natural born.” Now you show me any law or court decision that says that anyone born here is NOT a natural born citizen. You can’t, because there’s no such thing.
