A) Rubio is woefully uninformed about major problems with the two big entitlement programs........ or B) he is just blowing smoke of the elderly voters' butts for election purposes. I'm leaning toward B on this one.

That's Florida politics. You have to understand most of them come from elsewhere (the North East, such as New York) and bring their politics with them. And they vote.
They deserve representation, just like you and I. Naturally any politician that wants to get elected will pander to his/her constituents. Would you support a candidate that was running against your interests? No? Neither will the elderly. They didnt get old by being stupid. They support who best represents them, in their own opinion.
They deserve HONEST representation, just like you and I.
I can't believe that folks actually promote and justify lies from politicians "so they can get elected"........no wonder this nations is such a den of corruption. Hence, the problems, like SS & Med. get WORSE. No need to honestly deal with it, just lie about it for votes and carry on. Nothing to see here Looky Lou. It's okie dokie to lie for a job, in fact, folks ENCOURAGE it.

Well, I'm not ecouraging it. Just pointing out how all politicians will pander to get votes, and how voters WANT them to pander. Elderly voters want candidates to represent their issues. Gay voters want candidates to represent their issues. Black voters want candidates to represent their issues. Abraxas wants candidates to represent her issues.
None of this is new. Politics has been like that for the past 200 years.
Should politicians tell voters the truth? YES. Will they? No. If they did, they would never get elected. So the country spirals down...
