ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Marco Rubio, son of immigrants who fled Cuba before the arrival of the Castro regime, and who fell short in making the American dream come true for themselves, Rubio is a figure with a strong symbolic charge. His father was a waiter and his mother cleaned hotels in Las Vegas or Miami, but Marco became interested in politics as a teenager listening to a grandfather who admired Ronald Reagan. He graduated from college and pursued a political career from the most modest positions in Miami. His rise within the Republican Party has to do with his rhetorical ability. He came to the Senate as one of the favorites of the more conservative sector and little by little he has been moving towards more centrist positions. This book showcases both a young and ambitious politician and the young and ambitious community that he represents, to offer a multifaceted image of the most important country in the world and the role that Hispanics play in it.
