He means it.

You are a glimmer of hope for him, too. He wants your encouragement, and the rest of the country wants you to encourage him. He is a class act. Texans deserve Beto.

This race shouldn't even be close, it's hard to imagine someone actually mustering up the effort on election day to vote for someone like Cruz, whereas I can see people waiting in line all day long if that's what it takes to vote for Beto.

This is a great video and it is clear that Beto cares about Veterans and helped to prevent another military suicide

They remind me a lot of each other. Good and intelligent people who work hard to be compassionate. Beto makes me proud to be a Texan. Obama makes me proud to be an American. They both make me proud to be an American.

Ted Cruz and other Republicans are sweating bullets. Compassion, empathy and genuine concern for constituents are making a mark. Cruz has said he thinks the comparison to JFK and Bobby Kennedy are insane, ridiculous. People have lost it, Cruz said.

Wait for the November Wave, Ted Cruz. Tell us we're ridiculous on November 7th.

Wait for it!! The tsunami is coming for everyone on the wrong side of history and heart.

Texas has many different accents depending on what part of the state you are from. When people think of a Texas accent they usually think of more of a Dallas or West Texas type accent.

Growing up in Houston I have more of a Houston accent which I don't think it really shows but sometimes people say oh yeah you have a Texas accent haha
