United States: Democrat Beto O’Rourke has said that he feels called to run Presidential Election in 2020 in a Vanity Fair Profile: “You can probably tell that I want to run,” he said. “I do. I think I’d be good at it. “Man, I’m just born to be in it, and want to do everything I humanly can for this country at this moment,” O’Rourke said.
Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke is an American businessman and politician who represented Texas’s 16th congressional district for three terms in the United States House of Representatives. The former congressman gained a national following with his run for Senate last year against Republican Ted Cruz. Though he lost, the close result was considered impressive for a Texas Democrat.
Congressman Beto O’Rourke told a television station in his native El Paso that he is joining the race for president, and plans to make a formal announcement on Thursday morning, before launching his campaign with a three-day trip to Iowa. Beto O’Rourke has already led a protest against the President Trump proposed border wall in El Paso last month.
