He cares about the needs of all economic groups and will strive for successful healthcare, education, and economic issues for all of us. He will strive to bring our country together to a unified whole and promote world peace. N We need his leadership.
O'Rourke endorsed by former Mayor of El Paso, Dallas Morning News
In a few weeks, Texans will choose their next U.S. senator. As former mayor of El Paso, I have observed Mr. Beto O'Rourke over the years and closely follow the current campaign.
There are many important issues, but two stand out, and both bring out the best in Mr. O'Rourke. Texas, regretfully, has the largest percentage of individuals without health insurance. With Texas already last in the nation, do we need Ted Cruz to make things worse? Beto proposes universal health care. On immigration, Cruz generally supports the administration's dreadful and inhumane policies. Beto would immediately work to reinstate Dreamer rights and reunite parents with their children.
An overarching issue is that of attitude. Beto, by his nature, unites us, and helps us find the larger common ground we share rather than the toxic divisiveness in our current politics. Texas needs a senator who will make all Texans proud.

Vote for long shot, in the Dallas Morning News
Let's change the political landscape. I was born a second-class citizen in apartheid South Africa -- no representation for non-whites. For three generations, we were told it would be a long shot that a black man could be president of South Africa.
In 1994, I got to vote for Nelson Mandela -- the long shot. We came to the polls in South Africa to change the political landscape for an entire nation.
For more than 200 years in the United States, we were told an
African-American would never be president. They said it would be a long shot. In 2008 and 2012, I got to vote for President Barack Obama -- the long shot. We again changed the history and the dialogue of what was possible in this great nation.
In 2018, they are telling Texas that a Democrat is a long shot for our Senate race. On Nov. 6, I will be voting for Beto O'Rourke for senator. The long shot is now within striking distance of Ted Cruz.
Join me in changing the landscape of Texas politics for generations to come. I was born a second-class citizen deprived of representation. If you do not go to the polls this November, you choose to be a second-class citizen. Join me in voting for Beto O'Rourke. We will not sit quietly.
