Hello from South Bend, IN, where a group of residents have planned to march in protest of the officer-involved shooting of South Bend resident Eric Logan. Mayor Pete Buttigieg is planning to attend.
Pete Buttigieg has arrived, is responding to the demands from protestors marching in South Bend.
“You’re running for president and you want black people to vote for you? That’s not going to happen,” a protester tells Buttigieg

“I’m not asking for your vote,” Buttigieg tells her.
Protesters have asked Pete Buttigieg to sign a petition calling for a DOJ investigation into the officer-involved shooting of Eric Logan, but Buttigieg says it contains language that could be deemed prejudicial. Asked if he’ll be the first to sign a clean petition, he says “Yes.”

@RawStory Admitting Depression, #Buttigieg Says U.S. Had a Homosexual President
South Bend, Indiana, Mayor #PeteButtigieg says he’s certain that one or more of the previous 44 presidents before Trump, was, like Buttigieg, a gay man.

@RawStory Did you hear about this in school?
Was #AbrahamLincoln a Gay American?
"For homosexuals, there was a cloud over them but it seldom rained."
People, Ms. Baker noted, "were accustomed to these friendships between men."

I think he’s smart and has potential. Maybe if he asks nicely, Senator Warren might come talk to his class about what it’s like being a legislator.
That comes across as ageist, but it has noting to do with how old he is. Constitution says 35 years old to be president, so he’s old enough. Done.

It’s more about actual legislative experience. Municipal government is *reeeeaaaally* different from state of federal government.
This difference between local government and state/fed gov is something I’m really feeling personally rn.

Most of my own experience in government is within city gov. Parliamentary procedure within quasi-judicial boards of citizen appointees, in particular.
I know. THRILLING.

I grew up in the same South Bend @PeteButtigieg, graduating just a year ahead of him. I see how the media is trying to turn some things, especially with our crime rate, so I’ll just give you my perspective. I worked in downtown South Bend 18 years ago at a restaurant /1
and adjoining nightclub. I worked late evenings doing banquets and sometimes coat check. The drug store down the street would close at 6pm because the criminal element got so bad after dark. I would park there and walk the two blocks to work so I could avoid the parking /2
garages. My co-workers would tell stories of their cars being broken into repeatedly. When I would hostess in the restaurant I would see homeless people with obvious mental health issues urinating in front of the floor to ceiling windows that ran the length of our restaurant. /3

This is why we should spend more time vetting these candidates than asking which bands they want at their inaugurations. The meat of this story is troubling—but what it tells us about black life in South Bend during @PeteButtigieg’s time as mayor is worse. nyti.ms/2IuxhSC
Read @HenryJGomez on Buttigieg’s “1,000 Houses in 1,000 Days” program. It bulldozed or repaired vacant and abandoned homes in black and Latino South Bend neighborhoods. The mayor celebrates this rather uncritically. It is much more complicated than that. bzfd.it/2X1fs0N
This rather comprehensive @ChrisSikich look at Buttigieg’s urban renewal is also worth your attention. It’s difficult to spotlight just one thing, but take heed of what he did for a woman named Stacey Odom. dlvr.it/R1JHb4

The Rise and Fall of #PeteButtigieg, a play in three acts (probably):
Act One: Who is this guy with a funny name? Mayor of Notre Dame? I mean South Bend? Well whatever there are like 40 candidates and I don't have time for another random white dude who thinks he ought to be president. Go run for governor or something dude.
Act Two: These quotes reveal an unusually keen mind. The James Joyce, the piano, the Norwegian. Rhodes Scholar? - What if he is the millennial genius that we've been waiting for. I like how he talks about packing the courts, as we need a theory of change as well as policy. +
