[[File:Beto-O’Rourke-Signed-Vanity-Fair-Magazine-JSA-2020.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Beto's campaign was launched by the liberal [[MSM]] as the next Kennedy clone and white boy who would save the planet from Donald Trump. The campaign was DOA from the start.]]
In announcing his candidacy for the 2020 Democratic nomination for president in March 2019, O'Rourke boasted of his [[white privilege]]: "I was born to do this."<ref>https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/03/beto-orourke-cover-story?verso=true</ref> Despite the high-profile liberal/communist media roll out of his campaign, Beto's run fizzled immediately with the rise of [[gay rights]] [[activist]] [[Pete Buttigieg]]. A critic described Beto's speaking style: {{quotebox|He talked in a fluid, energetic, run-on style that was interesting to listen to — at first. As soon as you thought you had caught up with one chunk of clever rhetoric he moved on to the next set-piece, so you could never really process what he was saying. The more he spoke, the more his phrases grew monotonous in aggregate, and his animated talking points merged into each other, a river of charming progressivism in isolation; overwhelming and almost incomprehensible when unloaded all at once.<ref>https://medium.com/@harrisonblackman/late-stage-betomania-in-reno-dfbbfb1b9713</ref>}} Beto's early campaign was blunte by the upstart [[Pete Buttigieg]]. Former Congressman [[Barney Frank]] (D., Mass.) remarkedt that Beto "may be regretting that he's straight," given that Buttigieg's sexuality has largely inoculated him from the onslaught of "white privilege" attacks that have plagued O'Rourke's candidacy from day one.
