That's also one of the reasons why I think Buttigieg might have a shot. Yeah, he's gay, he's also from South Bend, Indiana, is white, has fairly centrist views, was in the military, is some form of Christian, and he may or may not hate black people

that last one helps him in certain groups and certainly doesn't help him with, y'know, actual black people. I don't know how he's danced around the whole "potentially a racist" thing but if he goes up against Trump and Trump can't play the gay card (he might, he doesn't know how to shut up) he'll ironically try to call Pete a racist and tqbh I've been waiting for Mayor Pete to address a lot of the controversies surrounding that and it doesn't seem like he will until directly called out on a big scale

Also I watched some footage from Mayor Pete rallies and like NO minorities seem to show up for the guy. He's got a lot of liberal support just form being a gay democrat but IDK if he's the best candidate

which is why I said earlier that the stars really need to align for him to win. I don't see it as likely but I also see the possibility if he plays it right and somehow convinces the black demographic that he isn't a racist. which he might not be. i just don't know enough to confidently say yet.
