    1. @BetoORourke doesn't just speak this way about criminal justice reform in Black churches - he speaks with this same passion about it to white folk. 2. I believe him. 3. I evaluated his platform on criminal justice reform and everything about this case is relevant for it.https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1041790987260108803 …

        He’s gotta win first. But if he does, he’d be the best bet for 2020. I can only hope the folks in Texas are as inspired by him as we are on the sidelines.

        Cody, we’re doing everything we can in Texas. I’ve never seen this much volunteer support for a candidate.. ever. Below are some links to @BetoORourke Even if you’re outside of Texas you can still donate/volunteer 🤙🏽 http://BetoForTexas.com  https://secure.actblue.com/donate/beto-homepage …pic.twitter.com/EFW5R19Jeb

        He’s the only out of state candidate I’ve ever donated to. I’ve been following him since he started running and hope he wins. Not only would his victory take out some legit garbage in Washington but it’d bring a genuinely caring human there. Keep up the fight!

        I’ve been following him since day 1. He DOES NOT adjust his speeches based on his audience. He is the more genuine and consistent candidate I’ve ever seen.

        I’m telling you Shaun...you asked about candidates for 2020 before. I never had an answer and I wasn’t inspired by anyone in particular until this man. I would like to see a O’Rouke/Harris ticket?

        To all good people in Texas, please get out and vote for this man. In this day and age I literally believe voting is a choice between life or death.

        Maybe I am jaded. I still want to see his ideas in action. I think it's because of the rise in popularity around the speech around kaepernick and someone saying what so many ppl were thinking. It's not a v Cruz question. But more of an ethereal one

        He’s passed some legislation benefiting veterans and fights for the improvement of VA. He’s also very honest and transparent about his views. I’ve known him since he was in city council in our hometown of El Paso. Progressive since day 1.

        FWIW I'm seeing more and more Beto yard signs around town (Dallas) as opposed to one Cruz sign. I hope it translates to people voting for him.

        He has Robert Kennedy in him. He believes in Texas and that is admirable, if he was in most any other state he would be a front runner. The time is now to elevate Beto #BetoForTexas
