I just flipped

I may do it again but for now Mayor Pete is my choice moving forward. I just watched a half dozen interviews with this bright and impressive man and I cannot believe we have this wealth of talent in the Democratic field.

very attractive. I hope whoever gets the nomination, makes all the others cabinet members.

I think we need a new approach to this situation. We need a full team to undo the damage the republican party has done.

He is brilliant, a great listener, sounds authentic and straightforward, and has a great way of speaking his mind without being off-putting to people who might not agree with him. Plus he wouldn't cost us a Senate seat!
