Mayor Pete is the best overall option IMO, but he will not win.  Joe Biden is going to win, but has absolutely no chance at beating Trump (He's a creepy old man with dinosaur politics.  Ex- not wanting to legalize marijuana which would be an obviously powerful tool for him to use).

I agree about pete, he would be the most difficult for Trump to attack.  What's he going to do, call him a homo? 

Petes biggest hurdle is that Black people don't like him.  Pete with an Obama endorsement and Booker or Kamala as VP would be very solid - but not much of a chance of that happening unless Biden drops out for some reason.  Promising future for 2024 or later though, unless he fucks up in the next few months.

This isn't mean to sound rude or anything along those lines, but I don't think that the country is ready yet to elect a gay person.

I've heard of some polls in some podcast that I listen to that were saying that most black men aren't ready to even support a black women for president, let alone a gay guy.

Pete has no real values imo. His campaign will not last too long, but how long will HIGHLY depend on how he does in Iowa, NH.
