I actually remember reading his essay about Bernie 20 years ago, when I was entering the contest a few years after he did and read his essay as one of the examples they put on the website.

I had no idea until Sunday that it was written by Pete Buttigieg, whom nobody had heard of at that point (he was a couple years out of high school at that point).

My only big concern about him is his history of race relations. He needs to do a better job answering questions about what happened with the police chief, and it would be great if he picked a person of color as his running mate.

primary today, I would vote for:
