His eye on the prize

With his official declaration on Monday that he will be a candidate for president in 2016, Sen. Marco Rubio immediately becomes one of the frontrunners for the Republican nomination, a tribute to his political acumen and voter appeal. Think what you will of Mr. Rubio's politics, he's a serious candidate with an inspiring personal narrative and a strong message that makes the most of his relative youthfulness and recent arrival on the political scene.
