Miami's latest political group, "Robots for Rubio", will be marching in a King Mango parade this weekend.
They
are part of the King Mango Strut marching through the Grassroots Music
Festival. The annual gathering takes place on Virginia Key, today and
tomorrow. The robots march at 2 pm on Sunday, Feb. 21st.
The co-founder of the Grove's King Mango Strut parade, Glenn Terry, has
produced small parades for the festival since it began five years ago.
"This one's theme is 'Weird Future' and what is stranger than the
Republican primaries?" said Terry adding, "Sure, there will be marching
fish loving sea level rise and "Mutants for Trump" but the robots
supporting Marc Rubio are getting the most attention."
Their motto?, "He's one of us!", says their leader, AJ Nichols. We went on to say, "We may march all the way to South Carolina."
The mini-parade is open to anyone with a sense of humor. People
wanting to join Terry's troupe can e-mail him or call, 305-448-3775.

COOLEST PARK THREATENED
Most people don't even know about one of Miami's coolest parks, Matheson Hammock West. It is dozens of hidden, green acres. The road leading to it is hard to find.
When people first see the wide open spaces and the ponds surrounded by forests, they say, "How did I not know about this?" Many take their dogs there to romp around.
Bowing to pressure from the surrounding Coral Gables homeowners (all members of the one percent), the county parks department is considering cutting off easy access to the park (closing the public road that leads
to it).
It's a public park only easily accessible by a public road. That road must remain open.
Below is a five-minute video that explains...
