Texas Standard for October 5, 2015

Plus: The top-ranked Texan in the race for the next U.S. president is not only a native with deep roots, but is perceived by most of the country as Californian. We’ll learn a bit of the backstory. And: You’ve heard about Gen X and Gen Y, but Gen Z – the next generational contingent of consumers – won’t be so loose with their money. We’ll hear why.
