    Premium post with statements written as fact require proof. I won't be waiting because your premium posts are usually lacking any level of quality. In fact, your contributions are typically very non-premium troll level posts.

    Woah this is the exactly opposite of true. He might appeal to moderates too much.

    your implication here seems to be that el paso is safe b/c its very white. i hope im reading that wrong b/c it seems like a pretty racist statement to make...its also totally inaccurate.

    they are clearly grouping hispanics with "white alone" in your chart...look at the breakdown! where are hispanics represented there? have you even been to el paso bro?

    i doubt you put this together yourself...im curious to see where you got it from.

    https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/elpasocountytexas/RHI125217#RHI125217

    i guess its confusing for some b/c at the top it says "white alone" = 92% and then "hispanic or latino" = 82.8% and "white alone, not hispanic" = 11.8%

    if we are going to say that certain races make for safer cities (which is racist, imo) then you have to say that latinos are the safest. texas is only like 40% hispanic and el paso is 82.8% and much safer than the state overall.

    Race and Hispanic Origin
    White alone, percent
    92.0%

    Black or African American alone, percent(a)
    3.9%
    American Indian and Alaska Native alone, percent(a)
    1.0%
    Asian alone, percent(a)
    1.3%
    Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone, percent(a)
    0.2%
    Two or More Races, percent
    1.5%
    Hispanic or Latino, percent(b)
    82.8%

    White alone, not Hispanic or Latino, percent
    11.8%

    honestly i think the biggest thing that beto has in his pocket is he speaks fluent spainsh which none of the democrat nominees can say. That will go huge in florida to win over some of those cubans that have been voting republican.

    Well first off it’s 2019 and all the major candidates support Medicare for all now (at this point) but if we are going off voting record he barely voted for Obamacare.

    But he was in a band. And skateboarded at a fast food place. He is soooo down to earth and totally isn't using a hispanic nickname to garner votes.

    You're sick. Most people who support MAGA aren't racists, despite your fantasies that seem to conveniently justify why life isn't the way you want it. My life isn't as good as I want? Blame racists. Want to make it a personality disorder? Make sure you identify everyone you don't like as the cause of your woes and call them racist too. Just sprinkle a little racist on anyone you don't like to instantly make yourself feel better!

    Lame. There was more to Beto than that, whether you want to acknowledge it or not. That's ok though. None of this changes the fact that Ted Cruz is just an empty smarmy suit, full of sound and blather, signifying nothing other than whatever is politically expedient.
