(16,889 posts)I feel so strongly we need a woman on the ticket - I also love Warren...
But watching this - I really like Beto O'Rourke and think he is a good man and has a great future.
Maybe he is best first as Senator from Texas....but I think he would be a good President someday.

(16,889 posts)There is absolutely nothing inappropriate about suggesting this - he would be great and we need the Senate.

(16,889 posts)I suggest highly that if you join DU and throw yourself so quickly into the democratic primary discussions, you can engage in conversations and not accuse long time DUers of being "inappropriate"....
There was nothing inappropriate or intended to hurt you. You accused me of something and I merely asking a very sincere question. Your defensiveness and sensitivity on this will be a very difficult process on you.

(4,558 posts)We already have an excellent candidate running for Senate in MJ Hegar. This is already a longshot because..well..Texas. A contentious primary of 2 strong candidates will make the shot longer, not easier.
Now, Beto on the national ticket in a Texan vs New Yorker race + Hegar with her military experience and growing popularity and Texas becomes one hell of an in play battleground state.

(16,889 posts)Strangely the newbie who got defensive on that question refused to answer my question and then even tried to alert on me.

(945 posts)We need a new direction forward along with a tie to what worked so well before. Texas and many other states could go for that too.

(429 posts)....that a REAL MAN does......Beto just proved he is a REAL MAN.....by reaching out to that young man who is obviously in a lot of emotional pain.....to offer he PERSONAL cell phone number and advise the young guy about counseling for him and then to give him two really big hugs is amazing......this is something that ....t-RUMP does not have in his makeup and could not and NEVER would even think about doing.....a big round of applause from our household to Beto......

(23,657 posts)... Absolutely unlike a certain other party!
Maybe when repuglikans have their souls saved for Jesus, they have them pickled and smothered with preservatives or something--does anybody think for a moment that Donald AnusMouth, or even Mittens Rmoney, would have asked this guy about getting help, to the point of offering their personal phone number to assist? Don't hold your breath, folks.
This is why I am a Democrat.

(22,381 posts)people packing a hall. A homeless woman in a wheel chair came in the back door, and he got off the stage, went over to her and knelt down at eye level then talked to her for several minutes. You could have heard a pin drop in that room.
He also got down at eye level with a 9 year old who came up by herself to ask him a question, when it was her turn in line he treated her with as much respect as he would any adult.
My friend took pictures and sent them to our congressperson's office asking why Kay is afraid to have town halls.
