The next time anyone tries to tell me that Pete "isn't ready" or "doesn't have enough experience", I will show them this video first. To understate the case, the man knows his stuff. I mean seriously, people. What more could you possibly want? .

No disrespect intended, but comparing this tour de force with the interviews of the three other candidates who showed up (Biden, Steyer, Klobuchar) makes my point even more strongly. Those 3 candidates did reasonably well, but Pete soared above all of them: he is on a different plane entirely. Which is why I go crazy with any folks who think that he's just another candidate. No, no, guys: don't you see how exceptional he is? So frustrating.

Supposedly all the candidates, including MF45, were invited to this forum, but only these 4 candidates showed up. Sadly obvious why MF45 absented himself; but why didn't Liz and Bernie come? These are difficult, but essential, even life-and-death issues that will be faced by the next president.

He would be just amazing as the leader of this country. You can feel his enthusiasm for making things better. I really hope he will prove the nay-sayers wrong and continue to climb in popularity.
