I was saying yesterday. He would be a good president, but his preference is what I think will do him in. Had he married a woman, I would feel differently. That said, we never thought we would see a black president and we got one of the best in Obama,so anything is possible. He will go through a brutal in GE because of how cruel the cult of Trump and the king himself. Not that he can't handle it with his intelligence, I would be fearing for his life more than I did Obama.I love Pete and love to hear him speaking. Maybe if the Dems decided to get behind him,we can weather this storm. We will be fighting on all fronts from all forms of government and Russia and whatever country Rump ask for help and the traitors Reb.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

We'll have to see if Pete becomes a major target. This is after one victory.

That's a wonderful, heartfelt story. Being gay doesn't mean he'd be a good president though.
