Pete Buttigieg bringing crowd members to their feet

9. Evidently you are willing to risk a JD Vance being elected. That's a mistake.

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. That you really love Buttigieg does not mean he can be elected president. People were just as fired up about a woman being president, but both lost to Trump.
Don't compare Obama's being elected with Buttigieg being able to be elected. Frankly, there are Democrats who would vote for a Black man before they would vote for a gay man.
We need a safe choice in '28 that's not a gamble to be elected and that's not Buttigieg.
Were he to win the nomination, I would vote for him just I have voted exclusively for Democrats for over 50 years now. I have voted for more than one Democrat for president that I was sure would lose and that's how I would feel about voting for Buttigieg.
