Marco Rubio blasts Ted Cruz's "military-style roundup" of illegal immigrants
By REENA FLORESCBS NEWSFebruary 24, 2016, 7:59 AM
Coming off a distant second-place finish in Nevada's Republican caucuses, Marco Rubio joined "CBS This Morning" to discuss his campaign future and to take a jab at the recent immigration proposals of his closest rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
"Bottom line is I don't think this country supports -- and I do not -- military-style tactics," Rubio said early Wednesday. He also slammed Cruz's proposals as "a change of position" for the senator because Cruz is "under duress in this campaign."
Rubio was referring to Cruz's statements earlier this week where the Texas senator insisted that he would send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to round up any immigrants in the United States illegally -- not just those who have committed crimes. Cruz's positions echoed those of GOP front-runner Donald Trump, who has promised that he would deport all undocumented immigrants during his presidency.
"I do think we're gonna enforce the law," Rubio said. "There are people that are going to be deported. There are people who are being deported now. If you're here illegally in this country and you have a deportation order, you are going to be deported, especially if you are a dangerous criminal."
"But," he added, "I don't think this country is going to support -- nor do I think we need to pursue -- a military-style roundup of people in America."
Instead, Rubio advocated for immigration policies that were "reasonable and responsible," including securing the U.S.-Mexico border.
During his interview, Rubio also cautioned that it was still too early to crown a GOP nominee, even after Tuesday night's Nevada caucuses, where Trump dominated over the rest of the Republican pack.
"It's important to take a deep breath here," Rubio said. "It's not based on how many states you win -- it's based on how many delegates you picked up."
The Florida senator pointed out that several more states would be voting between the end of February and the middle of March, and that there were "plenty of states out there that -- in the winner-take-all category -- that if you win them, you more than catch up." He assured viewers that "we'll win in Florida now that Gov. Bush is no longer in the race."
Of Jeb Bush, who dropped out of the White House race shortly after polls closed in South Carolina's Republican primary Saturday night, Rubio said he has spoken to his former mentor. But, he added, "we haven't discussed an endorsement."

The people are speaking through their votes and the RNC is not listening.

Rubio is an Anchor baby, not a "natural born citizen", therefore he is not qualified to run for President or Vice President. Rubio pushed the Gang of Eight bill to vastly increase immigration and legalize all illegals. Another way to destroy our country. Rubio also pushed obama's trade deal. Another way to destroy American jobs and our economy. Why would the Republican Party or a Secretary of State knowingly allow an Un-Constitutional candidate to run for office ?

That sounds exactly like what Ted Cruz said about Donald Trump. What goes around, comes around.

Isn't he proposing ICE run around kicking in doors to arrest illegal aliens? That's what ICE does, that's what ICE is supposed to do, that's why we have ICE.
Trump didn't propose a "special" deportation force. He proposed a deportation force, I'm sure believing as most of us that we already have one.A Nation Without Borders Is Not A Nation - Ronald Reagan
