Pete Buttigieg thinks Americans deserve more credit — and that they'd vote for a Black woman and a gay man on the same presidential ticket one day.

Americans would absolutely vote for a black woman and a gay man on the same presidential ticket, if they are competent candidates with a clear record of policy success. Neither Harris nor Buttegieg fit that description. On the contrary, both have a clear track record of policy failures and exactly zero successes.

All they have to offer is being a black woman and a gay man and that's not enough.

Walz is some how gayer than Mayor Pete.

Wait...on second thought. Didn't she choose a gay White guy as her running mate?

Walz might not be one, but he would hold it in his mouth until the real thing got there.

Buttplug has failed and everything his entire life. It didn't start there. The only reason this fool isn't homeless and on the streets it because the dims have been handing him a job for his obedience. Same with Kamala. Dims are the ultimate DEI organization and that is why they screw up their evil plans so much.

Close to half the country voted for this in 2024.
After deducting the deceased, illegals and homeless degenerates used to pad their totals, I believe they account for only 40% of the total.

Buttigieg was a terrible candidate, as was Harris.

The ONLY reason he is even in the conversation is BECAUSE he is gay.

If Douglas Murray were to run for president (if he was a Natural Born American, of course), his gayness would not be an issue for the vast majority.

It’s the gays who are LGBTQLMNOP activists who don’t stand a chance.

I’ll vote for a black man or women, and dont particularly care what genitals they prefer.



However, I won’t vote for retards.

Golly - imagine thinking it was a good idea to say “he was the best candidate but i wasn’t picking a gay guy” and that being an indictment on others instead of you

The only reason people know this race and gender info is because the Dems keep throwing it in our face. They love dividing people into groups.

True, but at the end of Buchannan’s presidency we had the Civil War.

If you want to see how Conservative the majority of the voters are, run a fig on the national ticket and see how that goes for you.

It doesn't look like people have faith in America voting for a drunk incompetent woman who talks in circles and a gay man who has a poor track record as a mayor and as secretary. Nobody I know votes on skin color or sexual preference.

I get it, that's the current model. But there are plenty of black women and gay men who just happen to be those things but aren't defined by those characteristics as an identity. That's the difference, and people will vote for those kinds of candidates. Peter Thiel, Scott Bessent, Richard Grenell, et al are successful people who happen to be gay, but they're not out there defining themselves as gay men, they're defined by what they've done in business, politics, whatever, and that is what matters.

Candidates defined solely by their identity, like Harris and Buttegieg, deserve to fail.

Pete may be gay, but he's actually les strange in public than Walz.

Not to be a dick... but notice you mentioned no black women...

I'll mention one- Winsome Sears... but she could never be on a ticket, wasn't born in the USA.

Yep, I like Sears, though I'm not sure in her various roles she has a lot of tangible policy successes. I like her positions, but she's not really been in an executive position to formulate and execute specific policies. Didn't intentionally leave out black women from my examples, but thinking about it I can't really think of any prominent female black politicians with successful policy track records from either party. Can you think of any?

No, I honestly can't... that was kind of my point.

It isn't necessarily as a diss to black women- but there is high expectation of identity box checkers to represent their identity group above and beyond anyone else. It's pandering and if you don't pander, you lose the whole bloc.
