I find it really odd and don't trust how main stream media shoved this guy down our throats. I've been listening to what he says closely and he seems like another smooth talking Obama who knows the right things to say. The trick is to redirect to how socially liberal he is without acknowledging much of the complete financial failing the status quo has sprung up for a majority of Americans. If another crash were to happen like it did under Obama's watch I'd wager he'd also side with the banks because he believes in the "American way" (A nod to American Exceptionalism which is a nod to much of the status quo). With these kinds of people you have to read between the lines which I did in this video and it completely confirmed that he's another Obama. In particular from 6:10 - 7:00 he talks about how he agrees with the status quo on foreign policy and to make you get on his side he brings up all the "bad" countries to claim the US way is the best. How about looking at the European countries? A quote from this article also disturbed me : nationalinterest.org/feature/does-pete-buttigieg-have-foreign-policy-53022 “This war is not over, whatever you may hear. But one day it will be, and the measure of what we achieved at such great cost will be taken by asking whether Americans and Afghans live better, freer lives because we served,” Clearly these are nods to the military industrial complex. It's also funny how the National Interest mentions Tulsi Gabbard in that same article right before talking about his foreign policy to suggest they are similar because of they are veterans with similar deployments however if you listen to his message it's obviously exactly opposite of where Tulsi Gabbard stands on Foreign Policy. CNN Rigged debates for Hillary Clinton I wouldn't be surprised if they're doing it for Pete Butigeg. You don't see just any candidate out there going from no press coverage to non-stop mainstream media coverage all bombarding you at once.

@san juanita cruz You know exactly what I mean by that statement. He got a whole ton of coverage out of nowhere for no particularly good reason when there are candidates like Tulsi Gabbard and others struggling to get more coverage. I don't trust mainstream media. " Don’t like him , don’t watch him." I don't like his policy or what he says. I will continue to watch all side of politics because I'm an informed citizen. This isn't a sport. If you want to discuss actual policy then we can discuss it but you making it seem like its personal from my end is just not the way things are. I'm speaking facts and logic here.

@@marcosalazar4682 “This war is not over, whatever you may hear. But one day it will be, and the measure of what we achieved at such great cost will be taken by asking whether Americans and Afghans live better, freer lives because we served,” ^ That quote from Pete Butigeg is also Historical revisionism at its finest. Afghanistan was actually the freest country in the middle east with women enjoying many rights. Now it's pretty much destroyed. He's defending the status quo by making it seem like these wars are about freedom when in reality they're about oil, opium, the military industrial complex, and other geo-political advantages. He's another Obama. We do NOT need another Obama. Sure he's a smooth talker but millions of people literally lost their homes because he chose to bail out the banks and not the American citizens they screwed.

His first answer was a complete dodge. Too bad there wasn't a journalist on the stage to call him on it. That's what happens when celebrities run a "news" network.

Do we call him Pete the Dicksucker, or do we refer to him as Pete the Impaled?

AxelQC hehe :)

AxelQC I mean, he said all he knew. he legally couldn’t listen to those. I know if he got in legal trouble for listening to those tapes you guys would also be on his ass.

You mustve been a straight A student.

Why

I’m a conservative who is sick and tired of the way Dems and mynside demonize each other. And the regressives on the left and Alt wrong (...er...Alt right) are even worse. He is authentic about reconciliation. I agree with many of his policies (see meetpete.org), but not all. Most importantly he wants to have an honest dialogue and bridge some gaps.

rhythmoriented I'm a left leaning moderate - and this dude seems like a good choice. He may not seem "liberal" enough to some democrats - but, like you said, bridge the gap of division sewn by Trump and reinforced by Democrats. ( I say trump is a divisive president because of his words and actions. He personally attacks and insults his opponents - instead of challenging their ideas). Someone who is respected by both sides of the isle could actually lead our nation.

@@quinnreverance611 & @rhythoriented, I would have thought that you guys might like somebody such as Andrew Yang more he appears to have appeal from both sides. He in my opinion is more articulate and analytical on the issues then Pete is.

@@quinnreverance611: trump's dumb ass insults his opponents because frankly, he hasn't got plans or leadership experience period to back up anything he's saying. Because he really hasn't got any real plans for the country to move forward outside of his campaign promises (obviously he found out the hard way that most presidents can't keep all their campaign promises for various reasons.) That's why he's a joke.

I also like that he's a Veteran!!! No bone spurs.....

He was anything but honest. While technically he didn't lie (he hasn't listened to what was on the tapes) he knows exactly what is on the tapes because lawyers sent the transcripts to his office.

austin konrad he said that he wants to know what the tape says. Implying that he doesn’t. If he had received a transcript he would know. No one can prove either way. Judging from the openness in which he addresses the case, I’m inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt. If he had received a transcript, I don’t see any harm in him admitting so.

You're an idiot.

You're an idiot. Please look into policies before backing someone. He is a big pharma, insurance, banking shill, taking their money and will do their bidding if you back him. More of the same as far as American life is concerned. Oh wow he's gay, wonderful, but what will he do. I'm gay and i cannot back this guy at all. I can see through the word salad. This is not eloquence by gay standards, this only appears to be eloquent for plebians. Sorry x

@@Dvipe19 So he will never fight institutional racism but be a part of it instead.

​@@rojavabashur6455 I mean I hear you but it seems like he worked to bridge the disconnect between the police and the minority communities. And although he didn't personally see that the racist cops (which sounds all too likely but it still only is an allegation without properly attained proof) were fired or persecuted, it doesn't seem like it was his place to do so anyways. I hope the tapes can be listened and these cops face the repercussions, and there is a method in place determining if it'll happen although it is not likely. And it was very insensitive to replace the chief with a white person but I have faith that Mayor Pete decided the successor based on their qualifications rather than the message it might send. Very tone deaf but I doubt it was intentional.

Yeah, he dodges every question. It amazes me that people don’t see this. He goes on for 10-15 mins without mentioning a single policy proposal to help fix the dire issues our country faces now and will face in the 21st century. I realized this guy was a fraud in the first interview I saw him in where he went 10 mins and didn’t say anything about how we’re going to clean up this mess. There are only a couple of reasons why a politician would do this: 1) he being funded by big corporate donors who he can’t offend (he is in fact), 2.) no one can say he went back on a policy proposal if he never made any... 3.) He’s naive and doesn’t have any (I’m guessing the 3rd isn’t the case). And why would the “left” MSM love a guy SO MUCH that hasn’t proposed any solutions... I wonder. Yeah, he’s “articulate” and “well spoken”. So were Obama and Bill Clinton. Look where we are now. Pete is in the same boat, getting caught at “secret dinners” with Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, one of the biggest DNC’s financiers, etc. to try to keep everyone’s eye on him while he doesn’t say anything of substance. We, Americans, lose either way if Buttegeig is elected. He’ll be another 4-8 years of Obama, bring us another Trump, and have wasted all of this time which we don’t have. We have to start putting real measures in place in the next 2-6 years or we are doomed in more than one way.

@@cwcw402 I think he had an idea that the question was coming given that most see it as a blemish on his record

@@TheDarren1423 its all pre planned for people they like and for those they dont they ambush them with questions about everything

Trump, however, has no chance in a debate with anyone at all. (Paradoxically, that's one of the reason Republicans love him so much.)

ummm he is smart???? he said he didn't know wire tapping laws, and don't you know he had to pay for this event and room rental and pay script writers for him. you do know this was not free, right????? your smart.... right???? its all paid for fake news,

@@ateam6486 He graduated first in his class in high school. He then attended Harvard University, where he had double majors in history and literature. He then was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship and attended Oxford University, where he received first-class honors in philosophy, politics, and economics. He joined the Navy in 2009, and later served in Afganistan. He's very smart indeed. Your "examples" are spurious.

lol a live debate with trump? trump would wreck this dude with 1000 insults and win. you cant be this respectful and beat trump in a debate..lol sorry dude

@@thomasthompson6378 holy shit he passed school. Something any other fucker can do!

McJasper looking into???, like watching msm do the vetting for u??

I voted for Obama twice!! Now I am supporting Mayor Pete!!

Biden can't beat Trump. Just look at all the videos on KZfaq of his wandering hands, including onto young girls. I don't think he did anything wrong, but it makes him unelectable.

@Fedup Citizen I don't know if Biden can beat Trump. I know a lot of polls say that, and I'm not an expert, but I don't think that there is the same energy behind Biden as there is with Trump or even different Democratic candidates. I think Biden is well-liked and respected, but I haven't seen high levels of excitement for him. It seems more like pragmatism - "He can beat Trump so that's why I'm voting for him." And I don't think that alone is enough to actually beat Trump. I think people need to have a fire in their guts and in their hearts and I haven't seen Biden inspire that.

I see a Biden/Buttigieg ticket for 2020 with Biden serving one term. VP Pete would be ready for eight years in 2024.

It'll be awful. I'm sure Pete would do his best to stay on-topic and answer questions, but Trump will be as belligerent and disruptive as possible, and still gloat about winning.

Yeah.

Trump would bury him within the first question just like he did with rubio and the rest of the Republicans.

Amanda Mancini Exactly! Trump would just point out that he can’t even run a city successfully.

@@amandasullen91 Good response. I think Trump would slay them in the debates.

@Life In The Faith Lane Did you even listen to *why* the white guys were put in charge? They had a vote from the population, which by the way is a quarter black. Essentially the point was to pick the best people for the job and they just so happened to be white. Don't make this a race issue when it's not.

jar8425 What about him firing the person that uncovered the tapes in the first place among other people. He’s not telling the whole story. Not that it matters; the guy is a “well spoken” corporate plant with no policy proposals and will bring us another 4-8 Obama like years and another Trump to follow. Obama and Bill Clinton were “well spoken” also. Look where that’s gotten us. We have 2-8 years to set this ship on the right course before we reach the point of no return and Pete is going to do nothing about it.

@@ianwilliams8873 What? I'm seeing so many people bring up issues that are clearly answered in the video, it's baffling. Also, the sheer amount of "corporate shill" comments is insane when there's absolute nothing to back that up other than he once worked for an accounting firm for, like, a year. The reason he's "not telling the whole story" is because he *can't* as it's under investigation by the FBI due to the Police Chief that wasn't "fired" but "demoted" because he was illegally wiretapping his precinct. The tapes can't be listened to as it's an ongoing investigation being done by the FBI, and the FBI absolutely won't let anyone in on their investigations for various reasons. It's not that hard to listen, people. Seriously. As for his policies, he's spoken at length about them before, but now he's effectively trying to create a "story" which in politics is one of the strongest moves you can make. "Campaigning is poetry, policy is prose", in other words. Not a single actual political operative has complained about his lack of talk regarding his policies because they know he's setting it up long-term. For God's sake, there's more than a year left til the election and you crazy people want all the information immediately and without any issues to them. That's not how this works, that's not how *any* of this works.

euclid crash Well direct the towards ppl who are bringing up thing be addressed in the video. And they IS NOT WHAT I MEANT BY ALL OF THE INFORMATION FOOL. Other things went on outside of the tape that he not tell you you about. My beef is that he has no policy positions and, combined with a couple of other factors, is obviously not on the side of the people. I would be glad to talk specifics but I. D.o.n.t care about this police video “scandal”. Also, notice you guys who were potentially mad about something like that, were easily talked down by Pete with partial facts. Just something to notice. You’re absolutely delusional that Pete “has policy positions” and “backs them up”. We can argue about this all day but this is exactly what corporate politicians do. They don’t talk policy. They talk stories, personal history, platitudes, cliches, etc

@@ianwilliams8873 Okay, you're just being hyperbolic for literally no reason other than you think people are being lied to without any proof to back it up other than your gut. You want to hear him talk about his policy positions, that you say he's never done and doesn't have? He's done at least two hour long interviews with Pod Save America and The Breakfast Club where he actually *does* talk about his policy and plans for how to implement them. What's delusional is you couldn't even try to look for it because you simply don't care. But I bet you care a lot about Sanders, a man whose policies *don't* have any plans to them; he specifically evaded the question as to how he's going to pass MfA through the Senate because everyone who actually knows anything about how the whole shebang works knows that Mitch McConnell will rally the GOP Senators into blocking every single one of his policies, the same way they stonewalled Obama for 8 years. The only person who's talking plans for policy this early is Warren, who's downfall is going to be the fact that she's effectively avoiding the MSM for no discernible reason. Your anger over things like "corporate democrats with no substance" or whatever line being fed to you by the Sanders propagandist apologists (videos that I've seen and the attitudes displayed are near cult-like). And there's the fact that because of Sanders almost personality-cult following, we got handed Trump because his base are too spiteful and arrogant to actually understand and process how politics works. This isn't a game, you morons; a literal fascist and authoritarian is in power of the United States. But instead you whine that Bernie isn't being given air-time, even though *we already know what he's about from his run in 2016* and we also know what his base is about: Bernie Sanders or burn the house down. At least I know how Buttigieg plans to enact a single-payer system, by offering it up as a private option and then eventually making it public when it gets massive support, bypassing the blockade of the Senate altogether. That's called political savvy and intelligence, something Bernie has one of, and it sure as hell isn't being savvy when you look at his record with minorities. Heck, I even know how the Mayor feels about reparations and how he plans to do something about it, which not a single other candidate has offered a solution for other than that it needs to be done, but offering no actual plan for it.

he did not go to the fbi and he did not fire him. check your facts.

obamacare was a right wing corporate giveaway, drone strikes are terrorism, he ramped up mass surveillance, backed another criminal war this time in yemen and both he and hillary took giant bribes fromt heir corporate owners.

he is not cut for president if there is no blaming.

initiativisk Because he is educated, and, mature unlike Trump. Lol

there's a lot of legitimate things to blame obama and hillary for
