Everyone I know is saying more and more people are running from ted cruz because of his voting record against the people's best interests, and he's helping them destroy Medicaid , Medicare , and will help them destroy Social Security which IS on their agenda to do after trying to get another tax scam passed. HE's really hated here in Texas and people are also tired of his lying , and his protecting putin and trump now over country. Cruz is the most hated man in Congress for a reason.

Texas is a wonderful place full of some of the most diverse culture you're going to find anywhere. The presence of a vocal minority of assholes will never change that.

What's interesting to me is I now see almost no Trump bumper stickers these days, but I'm seeing Beto stickers all over the place. I'm really getting the sense the worm is turning in Texas, if not this election then someday soon.

It's a nice intro piece for non-Democrats, but it's not a campaign video (nb - not an ad; no FEC disclaimer) that's going to stir things up.

By comparison, take a look at this intro video for Jason Kander:
