... I think that Eric Swalwell would be an asset to the ticket if our party's DEMOCRATIC nominee chose him as a running mate.

I found O’Rourke inspiring when he was a Senate candidate, but his policies would be merely incremental change. My home senator, Merkeley, is very good, especially on the child separation issue, but I don’t think has a chance at winning.
