Buffalo_Gal Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 I was wondering why he didn't go with Creepy Joe and instead went Sleepy Joe. Now he's combined them, so it can be an and/or! 3

Have Bernie as the VP and you hit the trifecta. 1

B-Man Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Marianne Williamson demands reparations “whatever it costs,” and she just qualified for Dem debate With Williamson on stage staking out a clear and aggressive reparations plan, leading Democrats will have to move either further left or buck their base.

But did you see Mayor Pete's response when asked about it? https://www.politicususa.com/2019/05/10/trump-pete-buttigieg-insult.html Quote “I’ll be honest. I had to Google that,” he said. “I guess it’s just a generational thing. I didn’t get the reference. It’s kind of funny, I guess. But he’s also the president of the United States and I’m surprised he’s not spending more time trying to salvage this China deal.” Nice. Maybe Mayor Pete can take care of himself.

He doesn't take Trump's bait. I've read and watched enough of him to conclude he's the best shot as his policy positions are moderate compared to most of the democratic field. He's the anti Trump in many ways as he's young, articulate, a Rhodes scholar, a war veteran, and laid back. He'll pick up Biden voters AS LONG AS HE DOESN"T MOVE FURTHER LEFT once Biden starts to inevitably stumble in the debates. It will be difficult for the right to cast Buttigieg as a socialist like they did Obama when almost everybody else running is to the left of him in the primaries. If I was advising him I'd lay off the Mike Pence attacks and focus on policy. Edited May 11, 2019 by Doc Brown 1
row_33 Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Is part of his Mayoral Duties to grandstand for a possible Presidential campaign? I’m sure his city has 500 things for him to do instead of blathering on TV for hours every day 1

I disagree. It is zero big deal. He's a commie so there is that, but his sexuality shouldn't be an impediment and I doubt it will be. 1 hour ago, row_33 said: He could keep his stark religious views to himself as well What are they? 1

I simply stated that an openly gay man couldn't win the presidency. The republicans would harvest just about every single vote that stands against homosexuality. It was just a dozen years ago that Obama and the Clintons were speaking out against gay marriage. There's a large percentage of voters such as blacks and Hispanics, let alone religious objections from Christians and Muslims who might otherwise vote for a dem who would not cast their vote for a gay man. 1
Buffalo_Gal Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Getting the black community to vote for a gay man? Ummmm Why do you think Cory Booker is still "closeted"? The Hispanic community also has large swaths where being gay is no bueno. They ain't votin' for "openly gay" Pete Buttigieg, no matter how many people in this thread would like to think otherwise. Now would Pete Buttigieg have a chance in say, 2032? Possibly. People do change and evolve, and 12/13 years from now, assuming he wins either a Senate seat or the Governorship in the meantime, he may be a contender. He'll only be 50, so still very young by Presidential standards.
