"First Family"

The newest issue of Time magazine has a cover picture of Pete Buttigieg and his husband, headlined as:  "First Family."



After Kamala Harris's razor-sharp and highly acclaimed questioning of William Barr in the Justice Committee hearing, I'm tentatively leaning toward a ticket of Harris and Buttigieg.

It would be a terrific pairing for many reasons, including diversity.  One whose parentage is Eastern Indian and African-American, and one who is a mid-western, white male who is a happily married gay man.   And that gay man was re-elected as mayor of South Bend -- after he came out -- by 80% of the vote in conservative Indiana, where Mike Pence was governor at the time.

Just saying . . .
