And this is why it's generally a bad idea for freshman Senators to run for President. Maybe he'll help Tom Cotton and a few others decide to wait until 2024 or 2028.
If he does run for Governor (or Senate, which is something of a possibility) I doubt he could run to soon into his term. 2024 would be okay for him, except for the things you said.
I'm imagining this horrific future in which former Florida Senator Marco Rubio becomes our generation's Harold Stassen 
I mean running for president as a freshman Senator clearly worked out for this guy.
If he can do it, I fail to see why Rubio can't.
The thing is, Barack Obama knew exactly what he was doing. Rubio, on the other hand...
Let's dispel with this fiction that Marco Rubio doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. Marco Rubio is undertaking a problematic effort to become the GOP's golden boy, when he's just not. That's why he repetitively refers to a "New American Century" even though he's filled with old ideas. It is a ridiculous attempt to be someone he's not. When a Democrat is elected president this November, we are going to embrace all the things that make America a dignified country and we are going to leave our children with what they deserve: an exceptional nation filled with equal opportunity and limitless potential for every citizen.
