Beto seeks Al Sharpton’s blessing
Legal Insurrection ^ | December 10, 2018 | Kemberlee Kaye

Beto O'Rourke is scoping out a presidential run. According to Buzzfeed, his recon included a call to Al Sharpton to schedule a meeting.

A Sharpton spokeswoman confirmed to Buzzfeed that "they spoke and agreed to meet within the next couple of weeks and they had a great conversation."

O'Rourke has yet to officially confirm a presidential run, but all signs (including his Senate run) point to a definite White House bid.

Having already met with former President Obama, O’Rouke’s upcoming meeting with Sharpton is a harbinger of the role of racial politics in the upcoming election. Sharpton and Obama are two of the left's resident experts in the exploitation of identity politics. If O'Rourke is already seeking their counsel, the 2020 election will end up being 2008 on steroids.

Well, this White Bugs Bunny is loaded with millions in campaign contributions from the looney Left, so it’s a sure bet that Al will be willing to take some cash for a few kind words to woo the Black base of the Democrat syndicate.

The Democrat nomination process with all the payoffs and skullduggery among these thieves should be very entertaining.

Even people in TX who voted against Beto are really in his corner now.

One crook seeking the approval of another crook. Makes perfect sense.

It’s disheartening to look at the line up the demonRATs danced out in this last election- Beto the Bunny, Cortez the Goof, that pole-dancer in Arizona ( who stole the election a la Franken), and Abrams the Fluffy in Georgia...Is our electorate getting more stupid? I think it is.

Picking a common criminal for a mentor tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about this piece of grifter garbage. Hope to see both in a jail cell very soon.

In a follow-up story, Robert O’Rourke met with leaders of the Council of La Raza in an effort to secure their endorsement and convince them that he’s really “Beto.”
