Beto or Pete (Original Post) Frasier Balzov Aug 2024 OP

Neither. Love them both but neither has significant foreign policy experience. Ocelot II Aug 2024 #1

Jake Sullivan, National Security Adviser, would be a better pick. Ocelot II Aug 2024 #2

Beto? BlueTsunami2018 Aug 2024 #3

Exactly. He lost 3 races in 4 years. Why should he be rewarded with SOS? beaglelover Aug 2024 #7

I can see Pete being in the discussion, but Beto is on no one's list. tritsofme Aug 2024 #4

I like the guy and all but what has he ever done that would qualify him for such an elite position?
