Mr. Luddite

Don't know. I saw Biden thanking Beto for his support
and told him he (Beto) would head up Biden's gun control
initiative.

"I want to make something clear. I’m going to guarantee you this is not
the last you’ve seen of him,” Biden said Monday night during a campaign
stop in Texas. "You’re going to take care of the gun problem with me.
You’re going to be the one who leads this effort.”

Beto, as you may recall, was the one calling for
government confiscation of all AR-15 type rifles.
In one of the early primary debates he said,

"Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47."

Yes I remember Betos statement very clearly. And you’re right. I had a false presumption that he’d pick Bero for a running mate but more possibly some dept head etc etc
