Marco Rubio has voiced support for English as the official language of the US. Why’s he doing an ad in Spanish?

   So they will understand they have to learn to speak English. How else do you communicate with someone who doesn’t speak English?

   He is a Teabagger, therefore a hypocrite.

   There are many spanish speaking people in Florida. Yes it is pimping the latino vote. That’s what Rubio does best. He’s a politician.

   Because he is a Cuban America….

   That realizes he lives in America, where English is the language used….

   You cannot really get ahead in life if you do not speak fluently in the states.

    “Official Language” has nothing to do with television or advertising.

    Just because he wants to stop billions in wasted dollars doesn’t mean that he wants to avoid getting his message out.

    I’ll go out on a limb and say that he is trying to communicate to them in their native language. It has nothing to do with his support for English as the official language of the United States, which is a necessity if we are to thrive as a nation and not become even more divided.

    he says what he thinks people want to hear… during the primaries it was “English as an official language”… now in the general election he has to tone it down…

    Rubio is the best the tea party has, and he’s just like all the rest..
