Julián Castro Endorses Elizabeth Warren for President

I still think a Warren/Castro tickets would give Trump a run for his money.

Julián Castro Endorses Elizabeth Warren for President

...Julián Castro, the former housing secretary whose progressive presidential candidacy did not make significant inroads with Democratic voters but earned plaudits from the party’s left wing, has endorsed Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, offering a possible lift for her candidacy less than one month before the Iowa caucuses.

Mr. Castro announced his endorsement on Monday morning, just days after he ended his own bid for the White House. In a statement, Mr. Castro cast Ms. Warren as the logical extension of his campaign’s social-justice-driven message, which seeks to correct inequities through targeted policy proposals. He will campaign with Ms. Warren this week, joining her Tuesday night at a rally at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn.

“There’s one candidate I see who is unafraid to fight like hell to make sure that America’s promise will be there for everyone,” Mr. Castro said in a video announcement released on Twitter. Ms. Warren, he said, “will make sure that no matter where you live in America — or where your family came from in the world, you have a path to opportunity, too.” .........

The two or three votes he brings her will definitely put her over the top.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Well ... we shall see.  I don't think Biden will be the DEM nominee.  Too much dirt is coming out on his son and I still think Uncle Joe has his own personal Ukraine problems.

Hoolio wants to be her VP. She might think the La Raza diaper baby can deliver Texas.

The demographics of TX have changed in the past couple of year so Castro delivering TX could be a possibility.  The estimated projections vary somewhat -- some say 2020, same say 2022, and the latest by 2024.

Having the LaRaza diaper baby (as you call him) will certainly not be a detriment to her in Texas, AZ or FL.  TX and FL losses would mean game over for Trump, would it not?

La Raza isn't well-loved in most of Texas. And Latinos aren't monolithic. Many are conservative.
