Mayor Pete is polling at 5%......he will be a minor footnote in this deal. Posing with the "spouse" won't be giving him a boost......

So, should Chasten be hidden away somewhere? Pete is an honest guy who loves his spouse like any straight couple would, and since he’s running for President, he wants to disclose everything. I wish that more candidates were like that!

But let’s get back to the topic at hand. Mayor Pete would be a great President!
Free free to debate anything I post. But when you delve into nothing but pure insult as has been done in this topic, then it really means there isn't argument for what I said.

I'm agreeing with you on Pete. Yet apparently, your sense of reality is so tainted by left vs right nonsense that you seemingly can't accept it. Maybe you should look at it.

Pete's resume is far far superior to that of Joe Biden. No question about it. And for saying that, I'm attacked, but none, absolutely none doing so, are actually willing to make that comparison themselves because they know I'm right.

Biden was one of the very longest serving Senators in the nation's history and a 2 term Vice President.


Buttigieg is a two term Mayor of the 306th biggest city in America.




WK was criticized for repeated false statements about Biden. Not in any way by me (or any I've seen) for arguing Buttigieg has a better resume. That is another in the continuing string of misstatements. Though I doubt many see it that way. I don't. But have any opinion you want.

That’s all the Right Wingers give out—opinions.

BTW, I have listed Buttigieg’s resume many times on the forum.

We need someone who can beat Trump. Mayor Pete is sharp and can make Trump look like the dumbo reality TV star that he is.

Nobody with a funny name is ever elected President. Check yourself. Hickenlooper was smart enough to bow out. Buttigieg hasn't figured it out yet.

Well, Eisenhower is kind of a funny name, and he won.

Mayor Pete may hang in there. He was up in a poll yesterday. Harris has gone down.

Hopefully, people are more sophisticated today and will consider picking a candidate with a funny name. I saw a newscaster on CNN (black, handsome) say his mom really liked Buttigieg and could even pronounce his name correctly!

Bootyjudge had a rally in a black neighborhood of Chicago and no black people showed up. Tucker Carlson showed clips and it was a sea of palefaces.

Yeah, but everyone in the country knew Eisenhower because he was a general in WWII.

Obama was a funny name.

Face it. The USA is no longer the white western European nation it once was.

I expect the Presidents of the 21st century will often have names that are 'funny' to you. You'll get used to it.
