Beto knows how to talk about gun control in Texas. He is proposing the right things, even in the heart of gun country. We'll see if he can make gun control palatable in Texas, even including prohibition of AR-15 sales. Like me, he draws a limit on confiscation, as long as owners are responsible. And he is willing to "have a conversation." His positions are identical to those of David Hogg.
He is very articulate, and a real trooper. He is not taking any kind of PAC money. He supports progressive policies on medicare for all, a living wage and immigration reform. I may be proven wrong on my horoscope score system if he ever runs for president; he only gets a 10-22 score. Who knows? But he has pulled almost even with the senator who is the most unpopular guy in the Senate, is thoroughly unlikable, and has an even lower presidential candidate score than him (and lost). So, in a blue year, in a red state with changing demographics, he has a chance. Amy Bell 65 is working hard to get him elected.
