Immigration, the big topic issue for the 2016 Presidential Election

Marcco Rubio a Republican Representative from Florida is being faced with the pressure of a potential Presidential Nomination.  With Immigration taking a back burner to Obama, it looks like this will be  a big ticket issue.   Rubio has in the past worked dedicatedly to improving the working conditions of farmers, protecting them from the harsh chemical pesticides they were working with.  Most of the employees of these farms are Hispanic, and Rubio has past worked on their human rights.  He hasn't come right out and said his ideas for immigration reform.  As the only Hispanic Republican working on the Reform bill, many eyes are on him.  He is split between two different options,make a splash and come out with new reform ideas, or lay low.  If he decides to make a splash with new immigration reform then he could loose his presidential nomination, yet he would pic up some democratic followers.  Much like Mitt Romney I think he will choose to lay low.  In order to get the presidential nomination Romney had to change his stance on Immigration in order to fit the Republican mold, and Rubio may do the same.
