look, he's doing this announcement at the florida freedom tower which is kind of like the ellis island for cubans coming over. he gets the hispanic vote. he's a fantastic speaker. very very important, though, this norman braman guy, the big donor, boy, does that lend him a lot of credibility. i don't know if you have heard norman speak but he absolutely adores marco rubio. he comes from florida. help the he had the choice between bush and marco and he explains why marco is the future of the party why jeb may be the past of the party. having a $10 million donor with a big name behind you, i know it's maybe not what you want to hear but it gives him if you are looking at jeb or marco, gives rubio the edge there. look, he's done everything right so far. he was very prominent in cnn, on fox et cetera, for a long time. he pulled himself back over the last year and a half. we haven't seen a lot from him. some of the other candidates have been out in front in the media. it kind of gives itself a little bit of an anticipation because you haven't seen a lot of him. saw him here a couple weeks a

this is sort of the cuban ellis island. this is where cuban refugees came to be processed to be in america and live in america. and when you hear that rubio told donors this morning that he's uniquely qualified to be president, i am told that his message is very much based on that experience. that he feels like he understands the importance of america to people in trouble, in need, to people under the thumb of tyranny all around the world because of his experience and his family. ted cruz has a father who was a cuban refugee but no one has embraced that kind of heritage like marco rubio has. he's done it since he was in the state house here. a very young house speaker here in florida at age 34. now he's only 43. despite that, despite that he's as you say one of three freshman tea party related republicans running for president, he thinks that he's different in many ways. he certainly is especially when it comes to that key question of his world view. john and kate? >> absolutely. they'll be working hard to differentiate the

many of them for years when they were seeking refuge in america, kind of the cuban ellis island, carol. very symbolic. it speaks to the kind of campaign that his aids say he wants to run. a hopeful one. the idea that a next generation should feel comfortable and confident that they can do better than their parents, which was the american way of life for awhile. but not so much now. it's kind of a much more lofty idea of this kind of granular sense that hillary clinton is talking about, making people feel better about themselves. especially the middle class. but i don't know that we're going to hear a lot of ideas and specifics in his platform. he's going to talk a lot more about the concept of what america can be. >> it's early on in the campaign. he's doing the soft rollout. rubio will likely face florida governor jeb bush. won't that be a little awkward? >> very awkward especial ligs for the people who are very close to both of them. this is such a fascinating human drama, carol. because marco rubio came up in florida politics when jeb bush was the governor. the two of them have had

they came through ellis island, and they were broke, impoverished and took whatever job they could gettern cities and started to have children just before world war one, frank sinatra and dean martin born in 1915 or so, my parents in 1916 they never saw a good day. they came of age in the 30s in the great depression, if they didn't go to war they had defense jobs and they came out of world war ii in the late 40s in their 30s into one of the great periods of expansion in america. >> rose: post world war ii. >> what is amazing during the post world war ii berld is these people who never had seen a good day believed that anything was possible in america if their kid could get a better education than them maybe they could be president of the united states. and they had an optimism and a belief in this country that was founded on almost a mystical kind of belief in opportunity here. we noticed during that generation that they all had a pent-up demand for the good life and that was something, a called lack, a trip to the cope kabbalah, maybe las vegas, the desire for a good life is a very si

the fact that he chose this building behind me, the freedom tower because it was kind of the ellis island for cubans coming to this country and coming here to miami. but also look in the room for all of these announcements you have their core supporters. you the enthusiasm. but rubio is different because he is known as an orator. he is known to give big speeches like the american dream. he has given this version of the speech many times before just not in the context of please make me president. one thing i will say at the beginning in the room maybe it came across this way on television he actually looked a little nervous, erin. he was a little bit unsure of himself. then he got his groove no question about it. and he became kind of that rise up speaker that we've seen him give the speech we've seen him give so many times. >> and he might not have been there at all if it weren't for his mentor jeb bush. he took him under his wing, brought him up. no question about that. but also jeb bush likely to run for president. so this cannot have been easy for jeb bush to watch today. >> probably n

when it comes to senator marco rubio set to make his announcement today in a big way at the south ellis islandhis happens, some will say his lack of experience be held against him? >> i think that it's a combination of his lack experience and the fact that his plans, his policy positions are just a repeat. it's wash, rinse repeat of what got us into the financial situation we were in 2007 to begin with. so americans are not looking to go backwards. whether it's marco rubio, ted cruz. >> or hillary clinton. >> not looking at backwards policy. they want to make sure the economic recovery we've seening that we keep moving forward and their pocket books are put first. >> you're not buying this, because she's saying marco rubio is old news where people see him as a breath of fresh air. >> we're at hillary 10.0. she's been running for president for a decade. she is tied to the obama policies. we have 5.5 million people that have fallen into poverty under barack obama since he became president. what people want to see is opportunity, for their children and grandchildren. job security. and i think mar

for example, when they began efforts on ellis island to welcome catholic migrants in particular it was an effort because they did not want the ymca proselytizing. they wanted to protect the flock. when the quota act in national origins act was passed, one of the major efforts they made was to liberalize quotas for foreign-board religious -- foreign-born religious, such as nuns, so more would be allowed in. they wanted to be sure they could bring increased to the country. -- bring in priest to the country. in the post-world war ii era there was a robust admission of refugees, displaced persons, following world war ii, which resulted from the chaos and ease turn and western europe -- chaos in eastern and western europe. there were catholic displaced persons and they focused on catholics, in large part. it was a taken for granted reality that that is how it was. catholics took care of catholics. jew would take care of jews. they would not discriminate against other groups, but there was a focus on your own groups. denominational ties were still strong. with the integration of catholics in
