marco rubio got into it with rand paul.l got into it back and forth in terms of where we are in foreign policy. there's a lot of tension in the republican party right now in terms of the idea of like a strong america on the global stage. >> that's right. >> go ahead. >> you have the tea party that's very much about libertarianism, about noninterventionism, even though rand paul is trying to modify his views and soften them from where his father was. but not a big appetite for this very robust idea of america having the strong place in the world. so that's what marco rubio is trying to figure out, where is this place in this pantheon of folks that might run in 2016? he thought immigration. it doesn't look like it's going to than. he's trying to carve out a space for him around the idea of a robust foreign policy. >> one wonders whether that space exists. rick sonner to rum sa er tner t the discussion here, how do you move the ball forward. >> if politicians can't talk about the middle class, they're able to say anything whic

he's fighting a party -- you asked marco rubio himself. reason he may not be a serious contender is because he's alienated a right wing base on a matter of immense political concern for the future of the republican party, bringing in hispanic voters. i mean, obviously if you're a gay or lesbian person in america and looking at what happened in arizona, you're thinking maybe that party is not the one for me. i mean, serially they're alienating different constituencies and certainly alienating younger people who have much different at that timitudes towards it. one small -- i wasn't going to call it a suicide mission. it seems like a suicide mission if you're trying to be a national party. the one small intervention is you know, in the '50s and '60s, a lot of people used theological arguments to argue against absentgration. let's not forget that. history is not working on their side here. >> let me take a break. more with our roundtable a little bit later. coming up, i'm going doing ask can governor jerry brown of california about a hot butt

senator marco rubio has been one of the most vocal voices hitting out at president obama's handling ofvents in ukraine, demanding the administration acknowledged that its so-called reset with russia is dead, but as politico points out today, senator rubio is orchestrating a reboot of his own right now. in his case, a reset with gop conservative base, part of an attempt to put the bitter immigration fight behind him as he positions himself for what allies say is an increasingly likely presidential bid in 2016. rubio has been raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for the republican party and has a series of speeches planned, including one this afternoon at google's headquarters in washington. joining me live now is nbc's kasie hunt. the immigration reform was supposed to be proof that marco rubio cold get legislation moved perhaps in a bipartisan way and instead what he ended up getting is a lot of tough rhetoric from the right. >> and he was trying to counteract that rhetoric throughout the push as they moved that bill through the senate. he spent a lot of time on conservative talk r

and when you look at that group it includes a number of movement conservatives, like marco rubio, like ted cruz, like paul ryan. >> i was interested in how the reaction would be to christie, got a standing ovation, what do you think? >> that is interesting, because he is not somebody who has always been beloved by the party because they feel sometimes he has been a little too cozy with obama, for example. and some of the stuff he has done, some people feel it is border heretical. it is interesting, because maybe they feel he is being attacked and maybe unfairly attacked. >> who do people on the left fear the most getting the nomination? >> i think that the person that probably would be the greatest concern would be jeb bush. i think the rest of the candidates are seen as being too far out of the mainstream for the most part. they're not all that well known or tested only the main stage. >> interesting, what do you think. >> rubio is too far out of the mainstream -- >> the tea party is not out of the mainstream, the tea party got republicans elected in 2010. >> right, but you know elect

know -- i mean, marco rubio at one point was tea party and then he wasn't tea party. this is the problem with it republican party now. it's either the far right, the conservative far right conservatives who are going to say rand paul, ted cruz, maybe marco rubio, and then the less far right, call them centrists who say bush or maybe christie. they're divided. they have to get behind one candidate and win. >> but there's going to be a long time between now and getting behind one candidate. maybe another year and a half. how do you see that playing out? >> not good for republicans. the longer time we have and the more time we have to kill each other, the worse. i think jeb bush is incredibly qualified. whenever i'm in florida, people love him. unfortunately, the worst thing about him is the last name, and people will say, oh, bush-clinton redux. i'm not certain you will get either one of them, so i would look outside, maybe to wisconsin, to a walker, to maybe someone who bridges the divide that eric mentioned between the conservative faction and more moderates. walker h

i think marco rubio is an incredibly talented public official.hope he's one of the voices up there. there is not a nicer person than i have met other than tim scott in washington than marco rubio. people cannot like him if they want. i just have -- my preference is not to rule people out because you disagree with them on one issue. >> unfortunately the electorate votes on one issue. i am going to ask you about the executive over reach bill that you are sponsoring. talk to me about this. >> congress passes laws. the constitution requires the executive to faithfully execute those laws. when he or she does not congress ought to stick up for themselves. they talk about the power of the person impeachments those are punishments. i want the president to do their job and they allow us to go to court and do a judicial entity the judicial branch to order to do what the constitution requires him to do. >> whether what you are saying when the president goes beyond changing a law this bill would allow congress to go to a judge and have a judge stop that. if

so, that is why i think you heard marco rubio said that.hat is on the table and map and a compelling political discussion and issue likely in the near future. republicans are going to be jumping forward and leaning forward with the exception of rand paul. >> robert. the issue of foreign policy and projecting america's strength. it did not sound like it got a huge reception. rand paul, it sounds from reports, plenty of applause and energy seems to be with him and paul lights, molly tweeted out something. she said the cpac attendance is down this year. they raised prices for tickets to attend cpac. that rumor is because they wanted to keep the paul followers, mostly college kids, from flooding the straw poll. how accurate is that assessment is? >> i think the cpac blessing for senator paul is a curse for him as he looks toward 2016. in gatherings like this, with the raised ticket prices, you have a large contingent of college students and libertarians in that direction. in this group, he is that most popular figure. when you look at the 2016

>> i like marco rubio a lot, but when you put him next to jeb bush he pales in terms of stature. >> you'reut that, i gave a speech with rubio, he got the crowd excited with ideas, humor, had it all. >> i just don't think he will have very much traction in a lot of the parts of the country. he is not going to get the latino vote because his name is rubio. >> why not? >> because he is a hard core republican. >> what do you mean hard core. >> when i heard the interview with barbara bush on "fox & friends," what i did not hear was the acquiescence, she wanted to protect him. george w. had been cut up. >> i think it is personal. >> the mom trying to protect her flock. >> well, jeb bush -- it is not t-ball. >> in terms of marco rubio. he is a fine senator. >> is hillary really inevitable? everyone thought that last time. >> she was going to get the nomination to run with it. guess what? she didn't get it. >> in this point in the last election cycle rudy giuliani was the inevitable candidate. nobody is inevitable, especially her with some of the problems she has. >> who would you vote for today?

it was marco rubio. mike lee went to heritage and laid out an agenda. ted cruz had an energy plan. rand paul has gone out to constituencies. it was unheard of for a republican. in detroit, a plan to revitalize inner cities. these tea party candidates have lots of good ideas. host: let me share with you the atlantic magazine -- the clout in congress appears to be on the wane. the ability to win inter-gop contests is the new challenge. it is no longer as clear-cut. the rank-and-file agree to the movement as an exciting infusion of new energy, now regarded with weariness and skepticism. guest: that is not quite accurate. when we go out and meet with candidates, i would say there is one thing that all the candidates tell us. whether they are more conservative or more moderate, they are trying to do something in washington. the tea party keeps getting stronger. if you look at the news -- look at any report. who are they talking about? the tea party members of congress. they have ideas. they're not talking about obama. they're talking for america's future. it is right what senator rubio

you see marco rubio with a call to remind everyone about ronald reagan and his policies in dealing with very same region. ted cruz also going after it. no one was holding punches at cpac. >> ted cruz apparently not liking the way republicans have been handling things in washington in the last couple of years. here's a clip of what he had to say. >> they say if you stand for principle, you lose elections. the way to do it, the smart way, the washington way is don't stand against obamacare, don't stand against the debt ceiling. don't stand against nothing. you want to lose elections, stand for nothing. of course all of us remember president dole and president mccain and president romney. look, those are good men. they're decent men. but when you don't stand and draw a clear distinction, when you don't stand for principle, democrats celebrate. >> one of the themes running through cpac yesterday was ukraine and the invasion of the crimea and whether republicans should stand firm and not remain isolationists but put forth a ronald reagan persona making sure we stand firm and not allow putin

what happened to marco rubio. why do they persist in this suicidal rush?of those questions. they keep doing this. part of it is you do not hear the truth about immigration or amnesty any place in the media. there is no issue as much importance to america that are hidden from immigration. you're talking about who votes. one of my friends told me there was a big facebook debate about liberals acting up and should we -- should we throw texas out of the union because it is so conservative? we are going back and forth. we are saying that is what amnesty does. 24 million conservative voters overwhelmed, gone. the country does become california. some of it is cowardice. some feel we lost the last election. hispanics, will you vote for me? look at the polls. hispanics do not care about amnesty. who cares about workers? the ones that came in the year before and the year before. i have heard republicans hate black people. i've never seen any proof until marco rubio. who gets hurt the most by amnesty? it is the low-wage workers. it is hispanics. it is blacks. the fac

. >> well, add bobby jindal, marco rubio to hit president obama for being weak. that. >> love to compare our weak president to vladimir putin, who by comparison they say they almost seem to admire. ted cruz wrote that, quote, it is almost as if the russians have a renowned grand master playing chess and the united states is playing checkers. meanwhile, it was rudy giuliani who just hates how president obama has to think about things before he makes decisions. >> putin decides what he wants to do and he does it in half a day. he makes a decision and he executes it, quickly. then everybody reacts. that's what's called a leader. president obama got to think about it, he's got to go over it again. he's got to talk to more people about it. >> and; of course, they're joined by sarah palin, who finds the presidencies -- well, the president's potency lacking. really. >> the perception of him and his potency across the world is one of such weakness. and, you know, look, people are look at putin as one who wrestles bears and drills for oil. they look at our president as on

i don't think they will come up with marco rubio. >> you think rubio is out there? recover. they got to do something. >> thank you for watching. stay tuned to fox news for the latest on the downed airliner.

watch how well people react to marco rubio. >> what we have in america is the exception, not the rulelmost everyone who has ever lived on this planet didn't get to choose their leaders. and they didn't get to choose their life either. you were stuck doing whatever your family and your parents were stuck doing before you. what made us exceptional and different is that here truly anyone from anywhere can accomplish anything. if we lose that, it is so difficult to recapture it, and that's something worth fighting for. every time i talk about how special america is, some commentator or whoever it may be will roll their eyes and say that's just something americans tell each other to make themselves feel good. you have the right to believe that. i don't have that option because i've seen it with my own eyes. >> you all reacted so favorably to marco rubio. so he gives you faith, david? >> how can we be on the right track? right now we're becoming a nanny country. we have 47 million people on food stamps or other assistance. gdp is not even averaging 2%. we're just losing it. >> i don't agree
