Beto belonged on stage with Buttigieg, Harris, Sanders and Warren on the CCN youth town halls in late April. I was disappointed he passed it up.

For those of us that followed Beto early on in 2018, his actions are not at all surprising, nor is his recent dropping in polls. It's how he does it.. first he goes all over the place, hosting small gatherings all over the map, meeting people and listening to people to really develop his platformed in a very well informed manner. Then he goes on the media blitz.

I'd posted this in multiple places as just an example:
