Beto O'Rourke & Bobby Kennedy
Robert Francis O'Rourke has a lot more in common with Robert Francis Kennedy than his Irish name and looks.
His mother, Melissa (Williams) O'Rourke, is the stepdaughter of Fred Korth, Secretary of the Navy under President John F. Kennedy. The similarities don't stop there. His father, Pat, was the county commissioner and judge for El Paso and served as chairman for the presidential campaign of Jesse Jackson. Bobby Kennedy helped run the campaigns for his brother. The Beto nickname – often attributed to Spanish-speakers - distinguishes him from his namesake, grandfather. Beto is fluent in Spanish.
Likewise, Bobby, grew up around politics and a family of political campaigners. Although Bobby lived in New York during his childhood, he attended an East Coast, Ivy League school, Harvard. Beto graduated from Columbia University in New York.
Kennedy moved around a lot as a child and kept to himself, not minding being alone. Later, he put himself out there to work for early campaigns that JFK entered. Similarly, Beto followed his father to political events where he was steered into public speaking despite a shyness in his youth.
Both Bobby and Beto attended boarding schools. Bobby was rushed to several boarding schools and graduated with a second degree from The University of Virginia. Beto attended an all-male boarding school in Virginia.
