“This idea of a baby bond, where there’s an investment made in every single American depending on their means, will not solve every problem in disparity in wealth and income and opportunity in this country,” O’Rourke said. “But it could go a long way to ensuring that there’s a little bit more fairness in this country.”
O’Rourke, the former Texas congressman who became a Democratic sensation following his near-miss Texas Senate race last year, had opened his second day as a presidential candidate with an impassioned response to the mass shootings at two mosques in New Zealand. While offering prayers and thoughts, he said, “I hope that you will agree with me that it is not enough just to be compassionate, thoughtful and prayerful at this moment.”“They’re on the rise right here in this country,” O’Rourke said.
Would that be before or after he’s killed them 🙄 VetoBeto
Why hasn't Politico written about Mr. O'Rourke's close ties to the Republican Hunt-family?
People in wealth and power tend to look out after their own. It makes things difficult for people of color or different cultures to climb to the top.
Here we go.
‘Local drunk driver appropriating Latino culture calls others racist.’
😂😂😂😂 says the white rich guy!!! Democrats sure do speak out of both sides of their mouth. Their lives so do not represent their rhetoric!!!!
Politico, are you scared too? Beto has seemed to trigger you, also.
Francis says whatever is popular at the moment.
Trump puts babies in cages still. Even tho courts told him not to. Trump is breaking a court order because he’s a lawless white supremacist who has no need for democracy.
Goes to show - If we wait long enough, and we suffer long enough, God will send us somebody to give us all hope for a better day.
If you don’t love it, leave it!
Politico, Stop attacking Beto. You’re showing your partisan side. It’s not a good look. Have you heard of a monster called trump?
This from the man who used 'eminent domain' to benefit his family business. His family's wealth also benefited from capitalism.

A really lame article based on like 2 snippets of quotes. I'd like to see something of more substance elaborating on Beto's policy ideas. Do better, Politico.
Well it's true
Its funny how the rich white man moves to the front of the Democratic candidate list even though he lost a campaign with more funding then his opponent.
