Hey, You are the only one here saying he can't win because he's Gay. We know where the real homophobia exists, and it isn't just present in a region of 120,000,000 people. Remember the last two Democrat nominees for President are both on record for opposing Gay Marriage. The current President, a Republican IS fighting for Gay rights across the globe.
So don't justify your anti-Gay remarks on Buttigieg by blaming it on the South. If the Democrats shelve this man because he's Gay, then they prove who the real bigots are.
Hmm you mean the President who remove ALL mention of LGBTQ Americans from the White House website? The one who picked for VP the guy that believes in Gay conversions.

Please as a gay American I call this BS out.
It's you guys who don't want Pete Buttigieg to be nominated because he's Gay. Not Trump.

It all really depends.
You have some candidates, who purposefully go to small bars that hold 40 people so that they can release some campaign video thats clean and shows personal interactions , others may go to factories or parks and speak to thousands, many of those people just being their to enjoy their day rather than listen to any candidate.
Sometimes the 40 people are more real than the 1000.
I use to think it was Kamala, as the establishment democrats were pushing her.
But after seeing Pete, I realized he is the type that will sweep democratic voters off their feet.
Smart and honest. He believes in corporate propaganda, and will push right wing policies like every other president in the past 100 hundred years and the American people will jump in joy as society becomes a corporate lifeless thing, and capital is exploited from the rest of the world to meet their appetite.
Most average democrat voters are center right, so when they see some who has as much faith in the system as they do, they’ll be drawn in.
Also he can speak 8 languages so he is worldly enough to please internationalists who are embarrassed by how Europeans see Americans.
Finally the media has the fact that he is gay to try and make his candidacy another historic event without actually shaking the boat too much.
first of all isn't it awfully early to be predicting who is going to win the nomination? Look at all the candidates, just like the GOP in 2012 and each day the darling of the party changes. I would hope someone who is not so far left can win and I would hope his/her sexual orientation would have nothing to do with anything, but reality is: this will, most likely not be the case. lets wait for 2 things: 1-at least a few debates under their belts and 2-a few primaries under their belts as well.

Its easy to get caught up in the drama but your totally right its still early in the race. The debates will be very exciting.
