Beto O’Rourke stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Tuesday (July 23) to talk about why he’s running for president.

The Democratic Presidential candidate talked about his punk-rock past, his 2018 Senate campaign against Ted Cruz and his plan for 2020.

Also during the show, host Seth asked the 2020 Democrat, “Do you ever miss how easy it was to be different from Ted Cruz?”

“Where is Ted Cruz when you need him?,” Beto quipped.

“What was so great about that campaign in Texas, beyond getting a chance to run against Ted Cruz, was running in a state that had been taken for granted — really written off. Ranked 50th in voter turnout. […] And at the end of the day, we turned out in record numbers. […] It was really an extraordinary election.”

Beto O’Rourke also talked about standing out in Democratic debates and immigration – Watch more after the cut!

Beto O’Rourke is getting candid about his family history.

The 46-year-old presidential hopeful revealed that he recently discovered his great-great-great-grandfather was a slave owner in the 1800s.

Beto explained that his newfound knowledge increased his desire to end the injustice between “white America” and “black America” through policy change and reparations.

“[My ancestors] were able to build wealth on the backs and off the sweat of others, wealth that they would then be able to pass down to their children and their children’s children,” Beto wrote on Medium, adding that this had the opposite effect on others, who faced repercussions in the forms of “economic exclusions and racism in the form of Jim Crow, lynchings, convict leasing, voter suppression, red lining, predatory lending, and mass incarceration.”

He continued, “I benefit from a system that my ancestors built to favor themselves at the expense of others. That only increases the urgency I feel to help change this country so that it works for those who have been locked-out of — or locked-up in — this system.”

Beto mentioned plans for policy changes including the areas of education, economics, healthcare, and criminal justice, such as ending the drug war and expunging arrest records for nonviolent drug crimes.

“We all need to know our own story as it relates to the national story, much as I am learning mine. It is only then, I believe, that we can take the necessary steps to repair the damage done and stop visiting this injustice on the generations that follow ours,” he concluded.

During last night’s democratic debate, Cory Booker‘s face went viral for his reaction when fellow hopeful Beto O’Rourke was speaking in Spanish while answering one of the questions.

Senator Booker‘s reaction soon became a meme and fans started sharing the viral image during the debate.

Well, Senator Booker used the image today (June 27) to respond to something Donald Trump Jr wrote on Twitter.

“Wow!!! Booker taking credit for first step act when @realDonaldTrump is the guy that made that an issue and got it done is pretty amazing. Nice try though,” the son of the President wrote.

If you don’t know, the First Step Act “reforms the federal prison system of the United States of America, and seeks to reduce recidivism.”

Beto O’Rourke has announced that he is going to run for president in 2020!

The 46-year-old former Congressman from Texas announced the news the morning after his cover for Vanity Fair, shot by the legendary Annie Leibovitz, was released.

Beto released a video on social media to reveal his decision to run. He captioned it, “I am running to serve you as the next president. The challenges we face are the greatest in living memory. No one person can meet them on their own. Only this country can do that, and only if we build a movement that includes all of us.”

Last year, Beto ran for senate in Texas and lost to incumbent Ted Cruz. He finished less than three percentage points behind Cruz, closer than any other Democrat has come to beating a Republican in that race in years.
