i was a member of the florida legislature for nine years. speaker of the house, majority leader majority whip. i've been in the senate for four and a half years and played a pretty vibrant role in foreign policy and foreign relations committee and intelligence committee and have a record of making judgments on public policy and foreign policy people could look at. what's most important in the presidency is the judgment that you have in terms of the future of our country and on foreign policy in particular. i would add one more point, this election will be about the future not about the past. it is important that we have a president that understands both the challenges and the opportunities that our country faces not just today but will face tomorro as well. >> in the exit polls on election night 2012 one number stood out to me. 21% of voters said that cares about people like me was the most important candidate quality. 81% voted for obama, 18% voted for romney. senator, how do you persuade poor and middle income people that your plans will b

legislature. and in 1881 the doctor was well known and it had always been his dream especially after having been surveyor general to have an inland waterway that was to stretch the length of florida. so they went to the legislature. the deal was for every mile of waterway drudged for an august team to miami they would get 3840 acres of public land along the east coast and the atlantic coast of florida which was by no means bad land or swampland, it was prime real estate. and so by 1912 this company had earned over at 1 million acres of land. [inaudible] and they did an actual survey in 1889. and it was bland and 85% was water. and the problem was except for the st. johns river going east along the coast most of the waterway was not navigable and in other words you could not take a steamship or anything like it down the coast of florida without it being dredged to some extent. and so the deal was that they had to dredge a continuous waterway 5 feet deep and 50 feet wide. and one of the things that they had to do and it became a big part of that contention with the legislature was it was supposed to maintain the waterway. and so constantly the legislature actually went to court in

florida. so they went to the legislature and they made the deal of the century. and the deal was that for every mile of waterway dredged from st. augustine to miami, they would get 3,840 acres of public land all lying along the east coast the atlantic coast of florida which was by no means badlands swampland at all. it was prime real estate. and by 1912 this company had earned over a million acres of land -- west cott's company -- had earned over a million acres of land for dredging 286 miles of waterway. and when they did a actual survey in 1889 they determined that approximately 15% of the entire waterway was land and 85% was water. the problem was -- except for the st. johns river going east along the coast -- most of the waterway, like the indian river lagoon was not navigable. in other words you couldn't take a steamship or anything like it down the coast of florida without it being dredged to some extent. and so the deal was they had to dredge a continuous waterway five feet deep and 50 feet wide. one of the things that westcott had to do and it became a bi

the canaveral port authority is in fact an independent governmental agency established by the florida legislature back in 1939. therefore, the canaveral port authority is a public organization under section 2667 of title 10, it could be determined by the secretary of the air force that the public interest would be served as a result of the enhanced use lease agreement that's being offered. and that competitive procedures that is not compatible with the public benefits served by this, in fact, this public interest. thusly it's in the public interest to deal with a public entity. the competitive procedures for selection of leases under this section should allow the air force to negotiate solely with the canaveral port authority. . >> will the gentleman yield? michael smith yes. >> i fully agree that section 2667 of title 10 provides the secretary of the air force the flexibility to enter into a lease with a public entity. mr. thornberry: i further understand that such a lease would be at full market value. so along with the gentleman, i look forward to hearing from the secretary of the air force as

after serving as florida state legislature and speaker, he was at that time closely identified with governorush. i take note of the fact that the senator has been, in a number of instances, reaching out to share his views on a variety of issues, especially foreign policy. not just in the united states, but in europe and other places. it's an honor to be here to introduce you to him, and to have him introduce the views he holds, because many people believe this election in 2016 will between large part about foreign policy. usually elections are about economics and how people feel about their well-being and whether the country is on the right track or not. the foreign policy seems to be more and more relevant in this election. so with that, senator marco rubio. [applause] senator rubio: thank you. it is an honor to be back at the council of foreign relations. i appreciate very much the opportunity to address you here today. i wanted to begin my remarks by quoting from the closing of another set of remarks. from a speech i believe echoes across history due to its proximity to tragedy. but that

posturing for his base , and really embarrassed not only himself, but a lot of republican legislature in the state of florida. i would like you to please go into detail, and let the listeners know what exactly occurred during jeb bush's governorship and involvement with the terri schiavo case. we need to hear this. guest: i think we remember the terri schiavo case page flip it -- painfully. it was a painful chapter for all involved. i understand people on both sides felt very passionately about it. keep in mind what governor bush was responding to was the heartfelt pleas of her immediate family that she not be allowed to die. i fully understand people on the other side, her estranged husband wanted to disconnect life-support, but her immediate family did not, and governor bush took efforts to preserve her life at the request of her family. it was a difficult situation, i do not think that any decision would have been an easy one. but i respect governor bush to listening to the family and trying to protect life. host: why are you advising jeb bush? guest: i think we have a lot of good candidates on the republ

extraordinary political career as you all know and i'll make that brief after serving in florida state legislature and speaker. he was at that time closely identified with governor bush and has been a great friend of governor bush, and now they are competitors. i take note of the fact that the senator has been in a number of instances reaching out to share his views on a variety of issues especially foreign policy, not just in the united states but in europe and other places. so it's -- i'm honored to be here to introduce you to him and to have him introduce the views that he holds because many people believe that this election in 2016 will be to a large part about foreign policy. always elections are about economics and how people feel about their well being and whether the country is on the right track or not, but foreign policy seems to be more and more relevant in this election. so with that, senator marco rubio. >> thank you. it is an honor to be back at the council on foreign relations and i appreciate very much the opportunity to address you here today. so i wanted to begin my remarks by qu

i was in florida just a few weeks ago, their legislature has mandated they have four lab schools. ne of them is florida atlantic university, which not only does early college -- i met a 17-year-old and a 19-year-old who were both on their way to graduate school. they had a key really did so many credits not only high school but on the college campus during that. of time. we have models, but we don't have systematic data at this point to suggest which models of early college work best. >> is that something the department of education can understand how education is generally a state run program -- is or something the department to do to encourage folks to get more information. you are right, kids are on a college campus more often than not. and they see themselves there. dr. miner: it is one of the things we expect to incentivize and some of our programs. we are very excited about the potential of early college. dr. carr: we have transcript data from high schools. we are beginning to collect from middle schools, as well. some of these kids are involved in the programs. it is a new t

florida. i proposed support of a state senator's bill that never even got a hearing. as it relates to in-state tuition, it passed this year. a conservative republican legislature led by a very courageous speaker of the house, will weatherford passed this and the governor signed it under law. it didn't happen under my watch, but i supported that. if you've been here for a period of time you have no nexus to the country of your parents, what are we supposed to do? marginalize these people forever? there's got to be a point where we fix this system so that legal immigration is easier than illegal immigration and show some respect for people a kid that might have been here ten years, that might be the valedictorian of their high school to say, no you're not allowed to go to college. i just think there's a point past which we're over the line. i do understand and respect people's sentiments and frustrations about this broken system. and i totally understand why people are upset when barack obama, with a stroke of a pen through executive action takes unconstitutional actions. >> what about that? would you reverse that? >> absolutely i would. of course. >> i talked t
