This speech is classic Marco Rubio. He gets to the heart of the message, to what America means and why we must do everything to protect America, for the sake of us and for the world. He also challenges his colleagues on both sides of the aisle to not put their careers over what’s good for America.

Great speech! Welcome aboard Senator Rubio!

He is a truly American leader, regardless of the skin color, or name is an American leader from the hearth, for his principles, for his ideas, God bless him and hopefully one day we will be blessed with his leadership, his time will came!!

For the Record: As much as I admire and support Sen. Rubio -- we know each other personally -- he cannot meet the requirement of Art. II, Sec. I, Clus. 5 of a natural born Citizen, as every president since George Washington has known it to be (with the exception of Chester Arthur and Barack Obama), that being born of two U.S. citizens within the jurisdiction of the United States.

While his parents may well have been permanent resident, Green-Card holders, they were not naturalized U. S. citizens at the time of Sen. Rubio's birth in Miami, Florida.

That's only if you use it- I have a twitter account for the purpose of having an information hub should I need it. Aside from that, if someone I know contacts me, I get a message and information can be shared once contact is made. Pretty cool, but pretty useless unless you're in media or networked with all your friends.

Regardless- hope you get to stick around. A different perspective doesn't have to be harmful if it can be discussed openly and with civility.

NO, he should not be VP. Either reamin as the effective most important Senator he is right now or the Presidency should he so desire. He is the future.

I was going to ask the same, but I guess I know- If you get banned again, send me a message on Twitter- there is a way I'm sure, and it would be cool to be able to discuss some of your politics even if you're gone from here. So long as there are no weiner pics, of course.

Rubio is awesome - he is presidential material for the future.

The other side really doesn't care, and it should be obvious. This kind of plea is likely tolerated for the meanwhile, after which the other side continues to lie and work out deals for themselves and their donors - all the while, when their duplicitous nature is discovered it is dismissed as "just the way D.C. works"......hopefully they can hold on until we vote the next wave in.

Why do I get the feeling he was talking to a bunch of empty chairs on the Sentate floor.

My #1 choice for VP. For Perry or Palin. He would be awesome and I'd predict Joe would be put to pasture by the Dems in 5 minutes.
