I think Buttigieg, if he wins, would be wise to chose a person of color as his running mate. I was thinking Kamala but Stacy Abrams might be good. I confess I don't know that much about her because I was mostly taking a break from politics in 2018.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
