Sen. Marco Rubio's First National Television Interview - Rules out Presidential Run

By JONATHAN KARL

March 29, 2011

Few new senators arrived in Washington this year
with more fanfare than Marco Rubio, R-Fla. But he has
kept a decidedly low profile since winning election in
November, concentrating on Florida issues and
turning down all national interview requests. That is,
until now.

In a wide-ranging interview -- his first national
interview since being elected -- Rubio discussed the
military campaign in Libya, President Obama's
leadership, the so-called birther movement and his
political plans for 2012 and beyond.

ABC News spent several days with Rubio in
Washington and Florida, getting exclusive, behind-
the-scenes access to a 39-year-old Republican whom
many conservatives would like to see run for
president.

After persistent questioning, Rubio ruled ruled out a
run for president; at least in 2012.

"I am not running for president in 2012," Rubio told
me.

You can watch the full exchange HERE.

Rubio, however, was less definitive in his response to
media speculation that he is the odds-on choice to be
the GOP vice presidential nominee.

To hear what Rubio had to say about that and see the
rest of my interview with the senator, be sure to tune
into "Nightline" tonight and to "Good Morning
America" on Wednesday when George
Stephanopoulos will have the first live national
television interview with Senator Rubio.

Well, Beck mentioned the video again on his program and says he's going to do a special on it on Friday. He has a link to the CBN article about it and credits Eric Stakelback as having "discovered" the video.

I'm a little disappointed in Beck for not doing his research. The CBN article makes clear that Stakelback got the video from Reza Kahlili, who got it from his sources inside Iran and contacted CBN (along with Pajamas and a couple others).

Reza did the translation and I helped him, as you know, because I sent it to you a couple of weeks ago for your opinion.
