UPDATE 2/21/26: With his Munich speech, Marco Rubio has broken away from the pack and is now poised to be The One after Trump.

MAGA (and hopefully MEGA) alive and well. God willing all of Western Civ gets the reprieve posterity demands under these men’s stewardship over the next decade or two.

UPDATE 2/16/26: It’s been 15+ years since Marco Rubio came prominently on the scene and first inspired a post on this site. As Trump 2.0 Secretary of State AND National Security Advisor, he has surprised many of us who saw a potential rock star years back; but then, thanks to an odd sort of political hibernation, we assumed his moment had passed. Anything but.
His pro-American/pro-Western Civ tribute just delivered loud & clear in Munich makes him our unchallenged first choice for carrying out what Trump has begun. What the 1964 “A Time For Choosing” speech was for Reagan and the sea change he effected, this stirring, visionary message promises to be for Rubio and post-Trump America. MARCO RUBIO, 2028!
UPDATE 2/16/26: It’s been 15 years. Rubio’s time has arrived.

POSTED 9/10/10 Rubio calls election ‘referendum on national identity’ at tea party rally
No big news, just another gathering of regular Americans repeating the clear, concise message: Low taxes, leave us alone to the bounty of the Free Market, defend America against its sworn enemies (like Islam for instance), politicians who do what they say they’ll do,..
No more “Lesser Of Two Evils.” How complicated.
