The "hats in the ring" so far for the 2016 presidential campaign are Ted Cruz (R), Hillary Clinton (D). Rand Paul (R), and now Marco Rubio (R). Marco Rubio at age 43 is the youngest candidate to declare yet this year. Rubio says that it is time for his generation to take charge of America. Another big part of Rubio's opening statement is the story of his parents, runaway Cubans seeking the American dream. The article about Rubio's declaration was written by Manuel Bojorquez and can be found at the following link: http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/marco-rubio-enters-2016-race-as-youngest-presidential-candidate/.
Rubio seems to already be strategizing for his election, as a Minority story he will relate to many democrat minority voters, this appeal as well as the Republican party will increase his chances to become president. As long as he upholds Republican values and appeals to many minority bases, this crazy "kid" could have a shot.
After looking at his political views on ontheissues.org, I generally agree with his economic views but do not approve of his foreign policy, civil rights, and crime. #randpaul2016
