Glad he's being taken serious in the primaries. He's very thoughtful and intelligent and capable of speaking his mind clearly. His biggest challenges are with people who have ingrained prejudices about sexual identity because unfortunately our country is rife with dolts like that and they're typically under the misguided impression that everyone else agrees with them. And then there are those of the religious mindset that have had years of indoctrination convincing them that they can judge the love between other human beings as wrong in the eyes of God. Buttigieg's integrity breaks down a lot of stereotypes but there are some seriously thick skulls out there.
