If Beto were a minority would he have more support?

When I close my eyes I can’t tell much difference between him and Obama. Same communication, message, and even cadence. Why doesn’t he receive more support? Would Obama have been president if he were white? Was his platform what got him elected?

Obama was a fluent liar. Here is why Beto gets no traction.

Comparing BHO's political and retorical skills with Badu is laughable.

I'd be willing to bet most of his supporters don't know he is white.

Dunno. Spartacus is having a hard time getting noticed - and he has a few legitimate accomplishments on his resume (turning Newark from an unmitigated s-hole to a somewhat functional city, working across the aisle to pass the First Step Act).

of course not. Also wouldn't have been president if he weren't half white. Also wouldn't have been president at that time if Bush's purpose of war had been to win and not to profit.

Obama wouldn’t have even been able to win a race for dog catcher if he had been white.

His last name is O'Rourke.



Wait....have I ever seen him put his last name on a piece of promotional material?

Probably not. I mean it’s not even racist, but he won presidency because he was black and could speak very well. Now that you mention it Beto and Obama Are similar in some ways.

I can see race being a factor as you put it, but Obama was way better at “the game” than Beto is.

Beto really has no redeeming values. He's milquetoast. There's nothing he projects that someone doesn't do better, issues aside.

That's why he pretends to be a minority.

I’m not sure I believe Obama has that much better game. He has more support in writers and from the media. There are several instances of him being at a loss for words, uncertain, stammering...particularly since trumps election.
