(24,228 posts)3. He's going to have to beat a Senator in Kamala Harris. She is a winner
2020 is about women and women of color.

I like him, but at this point, I'm not convinced he'll win.

He brings Texas for the Dems in 2020.

(79 posts)11. I think he'd be a perfect VP pick
Kamala/Beto is an unbeatable ticket, imo.
