True, but Marco Rubio isn’t interested in serving in public office, his ambition is climbing the greasy pole, and there’s no elected office in the US higher than the presidency.

On the bright side, maybe he’d resign after a couple of years to run for president of the NFL or something.

In reply to muselet. "The problem is that there isn't any other office he can run for after President" Of course there is. Any office other then President (assuming the person had served two terms). Granted, nobody tends to run for another office after being POTUS, but they certainly could if they truly wanted to continue to serve in public office.

Of course Marco Rubio will run for President in 2020. The problem is that there isn’t any other office he can run for after President, and he might actually have to *gasp shock horror* do the job.

As ever, William Shakespeare had the measure of someone like Marco Rubio:

O’ercome with pride, ambitious past all thinking, / Self-loving— (Coriolanus, Act 4, Scene 6)

Him and Trump both — they’re not running for an office, they’re just running for a title. Like Miss America or something. So shallow and tiresome.
