Beto O’rourke, the man who pulled out as the Democratic wonderboy, had just lost senatsvalget in Texas with hardly possible margin against republikaneren Ted Cruz.
Now would the audience that the new cellist should aim even higher. Against the presidential election about two years.
Lost with the least possible margin. Now he can be the big Trump-the challenger in 2020
When he spoke with the Newspaper, only the newspaper, right after the end of 6. november, he rejected the cash thought about asking which presidential candidate in 2020.
– No, I’m in El Paso to be, but I am grateful that I got to be a part of this. It was an amazing experience, ” said O’rourke.
There was, however, not all who believed in him.
Reminiscent of the Kennedy
during the course of the election campaign got O’rourke to create the big blue waves in the traditionally blood-red republican state of Texas. It has been 30 years since the last time Texas elected a democratic senator. In november, O’Rourke close by to make sure it stopped with 30.
while senatsvalgene in the state of the last few decades have been decided by at least 10 prosentpoengs margin between the candidates, then lost to O’rourke by 2.6 percentage points. It has been noticed, far outside of Texas.
– do you Know who he reminds me of? Kennedy. He speaks as a president. No matter how this goes, so I’m sure he’s going to run for presidential elections. I think he can win.
It said Connie Vachellio, faithful O’Rourke-trailer to the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, the day before her favorittkandidat lost senatsvalget.

Although O’rourke has remained silent on the subject since valgtapet in november, pulled him time and time out as one of the hottest candidates to challenge Trump to the presidency in 2020.
the Temperature fell not after a “secret” meeting between the said O’Rourke and Barack Obama 16. november.

Obama has previously stated that O’Rourke reminds him of himself.
– the Reason I was able to reach out to a significant part of the country, was that people had a perception that I said what I meant. What I often look for yourself is just that: “Believe you are sincere of what you say? Are you with on this because you have a conviction that you are willing to risk things for?”, said Obama when he talked about O’Rourke on the podcast, The Axe Files.
What I liked the best with the election of his (the O’Rourkes, ed.anm.), was that it did not felt as if his statements were based on opinion polls. It felt as if he based the statements and positions on what he actually believes. One would like to believe that it is the way it usually works. Sad enough, as is not the case, said Obama.

– I have not seen a candidate who has urged the Democratic kjernevelgere in the same way since Obama. I think he has great potential and a real talent. He collected more money than any other Kongresskandidat in United states history. Then it is impossible to reject him as a candidate, ” says former adviser to Ted Cruz, Rick Tyler, The Guardian.
– The Beto O’Rourke did in Texas was pretty amazing. Although I certainly do not declare support for any candidate, I believe sincerely that he should run as a presidential candidate in 2010. It is 100 per cent seriously. If he can get 48 per cent in Texas, everything is possible on a national level, wrote Seth Abrahamson, contributor for CNN and the BBC, on the valgnatta.

Beto was born and raised in a border. He understands the issues that the latino community is facing better than most. The border (to Mexico) is not something he has to learn about. He can speak from the heart, ” she says to The Guardian and adds:
– Here in El Paso is waiting all patiently to see what he decides to do.
