From Florida Senate Candidate Marco Rubio:
“The true measure of our nation’s progress on issues of race and ethnicity is the freedom of people of conscience to disagree with one another based on sound philosophical reasoning, without fear of being negatively branded because the person they oppose is of a different background or skin color.
Reasonable people can disagree, and, in fact, many do in this case. This competition of ideas is healthy when properly centered on policy and philosophy, as it has been. The debate is only poisoned when the color of one’s skin becomes a political football.”
