He is so intelligent and well-spoken. A wonderful representation of the Democratic Party!

What an insult to women who can't have children.
-
I didn't want kids when I was younger because of growing up abused sexually, verbally, emotionally, and physically. I got pregnant twice accidentally. My first pregnancy I had to have abortion due to the fact that the baby died in the womb and my body would not expel the fetus. The second pregnancy I gave birth to a little boy. I adore my son now that I have him but I also made it clear I was done when I met my husband who also had child from his previous marriage. I didn't want to bring in more kids to a world full of chaos and hate. Being childless can be chosen or not. Some women can't have children and it's an insult to them and to those who chose not to it's their right to not to. It's their right to worry about what we leave in this world once we are wrong. It's not wrong to think of future generations regardless if they choose to have kids or not.

You shouldn't get into politics because you want to exclusively make your kids' lives better, you should get into politics because you have a fundamental desire to make everyone's lives better. Improving all people's lives better should be at the heart of what drives you and why you get up and go to work everyday.

I missed the memo where people without biological children couldn’t possibly care about the next generation.
-
Shady Vance is the best thing for Democrats since Sarah Palin.
-
The way Buttigieg's face changed when Collins brought up that JD Vance clip... Man was ready to throw hands. The way he was quickly able to shift focus back onto the people and compassion speaks volumes about him.

There are a lot of us who chose not to have kids and we still have a vested interest in our country, our world, our future and most importantly, the future of this planet. I’d like to see Vances’s remarks addressed so everyone understands that EVERYONE has an interest in our future. Not just parents, stepparents, adoptive parents, foster parents.

Buttigieg is a very good communicator
-
Pete's communication skills are off the charts. Kamala and Pete would wipe the floor with Trump and creepy Vance
-
"Maybe that's why you shouldn't be talking about other people's children." 😭
-
Protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies -- foreign and orange.
-
Not having children doesn’t mean you’re indifferent to the future of our country or humanity.
-
Vance's comment illustrates his inability to understand that some people care about issues bigger than themselves. Vance is solely motivated by the "What's in this for me" mindset...
-
Did it ever occur to Vance that people who don't have kids care about the world and it's future as much as or more than they care about themselves and their families? All of us who are here have a stake in making the world a better place. That's as important a legacy as having children and may be more important, depending upon what you are able to accomplish.

I would love to see Pete B on the ticket, so well spoken and never wavers, he is a quiet bulldog and holds his own so well in the face of the MAGA. I think America is ready for a Fresh Breath of air on the ticket, I just don't know if America knows it.
-
Why do people care so much about people who don't have children? Having kids is a personal choice, not mandatory, not everyone has the desire to be a parent. Instead of going after people who don't have kids, how about going after the people who keep having kids when they can't even afford them.

Disgusting how a person with a Criminal Record can run for President
-
He would be an excellent Sec of State under Harris

JD Vance is the kinda dude who would buy all the toilet paper in the store, and laugh afterwards that no one else could buy any.
