Buttigieg for Secretary of State

I would like to see Kamala Harris pick Pete Buttigieg for Secretary of State.

He is the perfect fit for that job…

Makes sense, the guy sure has the smarts for it.
I did not think he would be a good VP pick, but a promotion to Secretary of State seems totally in line with his abilities and potential.

Not going to fix the world’s problems, but at least having a sane, patriotic, intelligent, compassionate team of people at the controls will make a world of difference.

Patriotic to who ? Donars
Intelligent to whose needs ? Donars
Compassionate to whose concerns/ interests ? Donars

Excuse me “donars” or “donors”.

My English is not perfect and i don’t understand the word donor.

Right on brother

Egghead, you are being weird.

What’s it that Bible says, "remove the log from your eye, before trying to remove the splinter from my eye’

we never see egghead complaining about the billionaire’s puppet The Donald or the Heritage Foundation, or Koch bros, et al. Nah, it’s all the Democrats fault.

Tell me egghead, how is any politician in American going to accomplish anything without dancing with corporations?

Where were you these past decades, as corporation were repeated allowed to continue their consolidate into for profits only global behemoths bigger than national governments???

God save us from idealists, we live in a big complicated world, if you are going to stay, you wind up playing anyways, it’s just how it is. Step down from your utopian heights and Buttigieg looks pretty solid. Not perfect, but hey at least he’s got a brain and a heart and can enunciate his ideas - it’s a good start.

If you want to start an intelligent argument, try to learn how to spell “donors”.
Right now, you look a little silly.
Unwittingly, you are making funny jokes … :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Why didnt Pete get the nod as running mate?

First, because he is better suited as Secretary of State, a brilliant communicator who speaks 7 languages and has a mind and memory like a steel trap.

And second, because there were people like Governor Walz, with deep governing and military experience and know what it takes in case of crisis.

Pretty unpopular running in the 2020 campaign.

You do not need to be popular to be an effective Secretary of State. You need to be a good diplomat.

Was very unpopular for good reason

And apparently you don’t have the intelligence or interest to explain anything.

Spit balling from the safety of the hedge behind the fence daddy built for you?

This is the 2020 Iowa primary results. It’s not a good benchmark for popularity, but to me, it shows the depth of the Democratic bench. And there are many more.

He was never unpopular. Stop with the false insinuations! It makes you very unpopular here!.

Totally agree on that. The Democratic Party has not been this promising in a long, long, long time.
We shall, the MAGA’s are going to get absolutely desperate - gonna take some care and empathy and love to keep things from going off the deep end. At least now, I think we have a real chance, We The People is energized and engaged - . . .

And many of the best aren’t even on that list !

Speaking about Buttigieg,

I like the finish: Trump is plain exhausting and America is sick of him and bored of him.
I’m with Kamala & Walz and the joy they are sharing with America.

As for the general election, here are some interesting observations.

Inside the Right with Tim Miller

Inside the Right episode 49: ‪@bulwarkmedia‬’s Tim Milelr discusses Trump’s disastrous press conference at Mar-a-Lago.

Medicare for all ??? Is that on the platform??

And what’s wrong if it is? We should have socialized medicine, medical care for everyone. Health care is a basic human right.

In Europe we have a mix of public and private medicine, costs covered by a mix of public and private insurance.

Public insurance is financed by public taxes, paid among other by firms and employees.

I remember Michael Moor movie Sicko
