What are your thoughts on 2020 presidential runner, Pete Buttigieg?

The Mayor of South Bend Indiana who has helped spiff up down town and help jump start local business. However with a pros comes cons. He also spent $2M hiding racist phone calls made by his funders.

He seems to be receiving flak from the Black Community and Police Community.

What do you know about Pete?

He is an intelligent Democrat with an extensive education. A anti-terrorist with a military background! Racism is often a generalisation or a stereotype which many amend in later years - or months - and is not applicable. Democrats do have within their ranks those who are educated but their greatest failing is in the recognition of those stupid women like Tlaib, Hispanic Cortez and Sarsour the arsour as being representatives of the Democratic party - they are not!

@EugenieLaBorgia my biggest problem with him is that he spent tax payer money to hide the racist acts of those who funded his mayoral campaign. Then lied about it. Surprisingly though The Young Turk wrote an excellent article on the whole matter.

@Razorback Intelligence officer, United States Navy Reserve. Harvard graduate, Pembroke and Oxford. Even though,as an overseas particiant in international politics who fully supports President Trump, it is not for me to belittle a man who has served his country and who is opposed to terrorism.
@TakingBackMidgard So he made some racist remarks - so what. Everyone seems to be latching on either to a sexual leaning or a racist one. There are more important things.

@EugenieLaBorgia Soemone who is racist and too much of a wimp to admit his faults especially can get red handed but continues to lie about it is nothing but a bottom feeder. And I try to remain unbiased on these things but I love in South Bend and could go on about it.

The black community hates him and he’s polling at 0% amongst the black community and now his own police have voted a zero confidence declaration on him.

Soooo his own town hates him which reflects on how he works

It’s sad to see that one party calls out the other for racism but is fine about racism in their own ranks

@TakingBackMidgard The danger to America comes from Hispanic Cortez, Omar the Roach Queen, Tosspot Tlaib and that half-witted moron Pressley who said - and I quote: 'The people closest to the pain should be closest to the power.' These trollops have no vested interest in American politics other than to profit financially. Democrats MUST put forward candidates who, although may be misguided, can eventually listen to reason. The stability of America must never be dictatorial and SHOULD have representation from both parties.

@EugenieLaBorgia that’s very well versed and sorry for my minor outburst of emotion.

It’s hard to find a well suited person with everyone we have to pick from this up coming election I feel.


I really wish Tulsi Gabbard would get a chance.
@TakingBackMidgard Your emotion is understandable! It's absolutely essential the Republicans hold the greater sway of power in America! The world demands it!
