Beto O'Rourke Biography

Beto O'Rourke is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on September 26, 1972 in El Paso, Texas, United States.

In an interview with ABC, O’Rourke suggested that the United States address the migrant caravan by investing in stability in countries where the migrants originate, countries in the Northern Triangle of Central America. O’Rourke said that U.S. involvement in Central America “has not been a very positive one over the last 60 years. You can go back to the coup [in Guatemala] that overthrew Jacobo Arbenz in 1954, fully backed by the Eisenhower administration and the Dulles brothers, who had an interest in the United Fruit company, whose fight with the government really precipitated the crisis that led to the coup.”

O’Rourke was born on September 26, 1972, at Hotel Dieu Hospital in El Paso, Texas, to Pat Francis O’Rourke and Melissa Martha O’Rourke, née Williams. He is a fourth-generation Irish American and some of his maternal ancestors settled in the American colonies in the 18th century. His parents and paternal grandparents were native El Pasoans, while his maternal grandfather was from Metter, Georgia and his maternal grandmother was from Racine, Wisconsin. He has two younger sisters, the younger of whom was born intellectually impaired. In his infancy, his family gave him the nickname “Beto”, a common Spanish-Portuguese nickname for first names ending in “-berto”, initially to distinguish him from his namesake grandfather. Melissa O’Rourke owned a high-end furniture store; in 1980, her mother married Fred Korth, former Secretary of the Navy under President John F. Kennedy. Pat O’Rourke served in public office in El Paso as County Commissioner and County Judge; he was an associate of Texas Governor Mark White, served as the state chairman of Jesse Jackson’s 1984 and 1988 presidential campaigns, switched parties in the early 1990s, and made several failed attempts to win election to public office as a Republican. Jesse Jackson conducted a press conference on December 11, 1984, in the den of O’Rourke’s boyhood home in Kern Place.
