James Patrick Nelson,

Buttigieg is an exceptional talent.

Insecurities remain within minority populations. Blacks and Jews have experienced tensions when they have successfully connected beyond their 'family'.

In Pete's case, much of the hostility toward him came from the left, who were enamored with Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. For them, Buttigieg was the opposition.

I have encountered many liberals who say that Americans won't vote for a gay presidential candidate. Something Buttigieg proved to be nonsense in his 2020 run for the Democratic nomination.

Buttigieg can be instrumental in winning the presidency should Democrats want to avoid a fall in November. I wrote "Biden Needs Help to Win 2024" on this topic and invite you to read it.

Many thanks. Best.
