    I am from Canada. Four years ago, I was going to South Bend for my sons' baseball tournament. I contacted his office before hand and asked if he would meet with me and my boy. He invited us to his office, and was as gracious as anyone could be. Bright, intellectual, articulate and so gracious and kind. What you see in his public persona is sincere. I hope he gets the Democratic nod.

      do the resaearch in black and white, he was for medicare for all until Big Pharma became a major donor
      Buttigieg is a bought and paid for corp candidate. Donors are Big Pharma, fossil fuels and wall st...look it up
      FACTS:
      CNNs parent company AT&T donated 2 million to Trumps inauguration and so far $72,000 to Trump 2020
      $70,000 to Biden 2020.
      And $70,000 to Pete.
      Along with donations to their superpacs.
      They back both puppets and dont care who wins as long as its one they own.
      Buttigieg would make ZERO changes for the people, and climate he is owned by special interests and military ind complex

There is so much hate going around and I try to not just focus on someone's political stance because it's just a difference in opinion. When did it become such a bad thing to disagree.

Pete was the first guy in 50 years to tackle it, and by working with Mike Pence and convincing him to direct efforts to help, it is now a beautiful tech facility with room to grow. There's more, but only so much space and all you required is one thing he did for the community... And it's a doozy.

      Speaking of which, it is so frustrating that our current president reverts to name calling and making childish attacks against his opponents. What in the world does what he look like have anything to do with his presidential capacity? It's actually one of the more well know logical fallacies to base your argument against someone's stance and capacity by bashing them for completely irrelevant things like appearance. But then again Trump knows what he is doing in that he appeals to bullies and a childish crowd. It is flabbergasting that someone like that is our frickin president. I want to respect the leaders of our country not get grossed out.

      Unfortunately thats the WORST possible conclusion you can come too. I like Pete alot. Great guy, open, honest, intelligent, eloquent.. But he has ZERO policies. Absolutely zero policies. He's waiting for the corporate donors to back him up before he decides what policies to gravitate too. Also.... I watched one of his interviews where he essentially implied he's been grooming to become a presidential candidate since day 1. Since he was a kid. There's nothing wrong with that ... except we now know this is his ambitions being a big primary motivator for running. Not the American people. That's why I've been telling everyone to don't stop researching. Come to a conclusion once we've gone through every candidate...and im pretty confident most people who are thorough will land on Andrew Yang. Check him out Margaret. The man's an intellectual, policy and data driven, sincere, looking to help the American people First..and completely VOID of identity politics. I've never seen someone who's been getting support from Alt right members AND black and other minority voters. You know why? He's a unifier. He addresses the core issues not the layers on top that distort perspectives and divides the country.

    Pete is really gaining momentum. An Afghanistan vet, Mayor of South Bend, Indiana. Went to Harvard, Rhodes scholar (went to Oxford) learned a few different languages. Is a pianist, can play quite well. Author. Well spoken, smart, considerate. Understands the hypocrisy with religion and has his faith. With all the chaos in Washington, politicians fighting within their own parties and vehemently with each other, it would be a much refreshing change to have "reason" in Washington. He advocates for change, not to discredit the parties, but to bring them together for the sole purpose of saving the US. With all the representatives we have in Washington, we should expect more progress instead of bickering. The US could have accomplished so much more in politics if it weren't for one party getting credit and the other party trying to dissuade that credit for fear their party loses points. That is just power struggle, not really helping the country. Pete does have more experience in politics than Trump and more executive experience than Pence.

    Even if he doesn't win the nomination in 2020, Mayor Pete is -- for me -- a much-needed glimmer of hope for our future. Because amid our toxic and ever insufferable political landscape and discourse -- and yes, both sides are culpable -- Mayor Pete has an astounding ability to transcend. It's hard to define. In many ways it stems from a deep-seated moral core, an authenticity, a politician who actually entered politics for all the right reasons. Indeed, I was skeptical of Mayor Pete in the beginning. But I am not anymore.

      Don't forget to vote in the primary! A lot of new voters miss that.

      family lowe and Trump has erased civility and democracy from our government. He's brought nepotism, corruption and lying to an all time high.
      Anyone (even with minor flaws) is better than that trash.
