Extended interview: Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg and husband Chasten

[@marinavillani3544]

Such humble, well spoken, intelligent guys. I love how Pete lets Chasten speak for the majority of of the time. Very unusual for a politician not to steal the light

[@tammypeters2816]

As a South Bend resident Pete is my mayor and is everything he seems to be. Kind, caring, and honest. And he gets things done, he doesn't just make promises. Great makings for a president and a HUGE refreshing change from what we're stuck with now!

[@Yarona1]

Please let more people know that he's a doer,not just a great speaker. I cannot understand why people don't see the substance he brings and the accomplishments he has achieved as a mayor, and how wonderful he will be as a president who can actually get things done in the WH. People keep saying he has no policies, but he clearly does. He may not be as focused on them right now as he is with trying to let people get to know who he is at heart. I feel like if he had just jumped straight into policies without first introducing himself, people would be like "who the heck is this guy & why should I listen to him when I know nothing about his values and what he stands for?" I feel like people just want to find something negative to say about any candidate they aren't pulling for, rather than get to know them. Pete has my vote for sure!!!
