Beto 2020

I'm all in. I would really love a woman like Harris or Klobuchar, but after red America doubled down on Trump last night, I think we really need a transformational character with Obama like charisma to bring out less likely voters like he did in Texas. We can't depend on states like Florida to do the right thing.

Texas is just too damn red to overcome, I don't want us to waste a potential generational candidate on our perpetual white whale. If not at the top of the 2020 ticket, I hope he is the VP candidate for whoever wins the primary.
