His only experience hadn't been limited to being a mayor of a city of about a hundred thousand.

I don't care about Buttigieg's sexuality. It's his extremely young age and lack of experience that concerns me. A 37 year old Mayor who studied at Oxford.

How about a 45 year old gay Senator who went to Oxford? Why is Buttigieg in such a hurry? Why didn't he try statewide office? Why didn't he run for Governor, or Senator, or at least a Congressional seat, before aiming for the Presidency?
