Can Beto really run for office?

    I'm sure you have seen the video that Soy boy Beto O'Dork stated plainly that he is going to take our guns. But its also common knowledge that he is a convicted felon! He himself can not own a gun or vote. So how does he qualify to run for office of president? He would not even get my vote for dog catcher. Any legal eagles here that can shed some light on this?

    No legal eagles required.

    The alleged felony convictions have been dealt with in a different thread. That 'common knowledge' circulating the inter-webs concerning alleged felony convictions is common 'ignorance'. Beto was not prosecuted on either charge, and is eligible to purchase and own guns, and, of course, vote. In fact, If Beto was not eligible to vote, the Republican Party, which has been the beneficiary of Beto's voting in Congress hadn't got the memo. :rolleyes: Beto O’Rourke frequently voted for Republican legislation, analysis reveals Beto O’Rourke’s voting record is more conservative than the average Democrat’s

    Yes he can. As Chell pointed out he is completely eligible to run. As for his voting record read a little further into it. The few times he voted with the repub side it was with RINOs and should not obscure his stated aims in the last election cycle and for damn sure not this cycle. Lil' bobby is just as ruthless and power hungry as anyone in his need to control us.

    He will probably run for dog catcher in el paso after this.

    The only reason he isn't a felon is because of white privilege and his parents had money.

    I thought white privilege didn't exist? At least that is the schtick I keep hearing in this forum. :LOL:

    Just because it doesn't exist doesn't mean it can't be blamed. What's the aussie equivalent of leprechauns? :D

    White Privilege does not exist. White Guilt however is abundant and pathetic.

    Of course white privilege does not exist....



    You're conflating white privilege with class privilege...they are not necessarily mutually exclusive. ;)

    Bobo had as good a chance as Jay Inslee which was -3 percent approximately. If I had to pick a Dem I’d go with Tulsi Gabbard. Not because she’s hot either. I barely noticed. :whistle: She’d be much better than old, ugly and kooky, any day.

    The “Talking Heads” are out in Fulled Force, today… Spewing a whole pile of discredited Misinformation, that really is not relevant to the issues in Texas…

    They want the proven not to work even some of the time "national red flag bill" to pass.
    Which I'm sure the nra will be in favor of.

    I question your statement that Beto is a Convicted Felon…. He does have a DWI and possible Evading charge on his record, but it was plea bargained down, when he agreed to a Court Ordered diversion to a Treatment Program, which he completed.. He also was once charged with Burglary, while in college, but the case was dropped by the complainant…. Silver Spoon Family Influence….
