So whatever we do now will decide not just what the next four years looks like, but what like but the next 40 years will look like, Buttigieg told more than 500 people at the Wildwood Smokehouse & Saloon. Thats why weve just not got to win an election, but win the era for our values.
Republicans have made claims on those values and Buttigieg is reclaiming them, said Sarah Prineas, who introduced him.
Buttigieg doesnt pay a whole lot of attention to the giant, orange elephant in the room, she said. He is a uniter. He makes us feel like were in this together.
Buttigieg, who made a stop at the Iowa City farmers market ahead of the rally, contends his rhetoric about values appeals to not only his Democratic audiences but to voters who are not tribal, committed partisans.
By appealing to shared values like freedom and security and democracy and faith and family ... means there is more to reaching out to independents than moving into the center.
These are things that dont belong to one party unless we surrender them on my side of the aisle, Buttigieg said. If we do that, we shouldnt be surprised that someone family oriented or faith oriented of shooting [?] oriented thinks the Republicans are the only ones speaking to them.

Another example that shows that South Park is the leading (if not bleeding!) edge social commentary & satire even when the target has yet to come in view!
I think that episode was some 5-7 years ago.
No, quite the contrary!
My argument is designed to cause the people who ritually vote Democrat, without even thinking about why they are doing so, are dead wrong and need to change their ways.
Just because they have always voted Democrat doesn’t mean they have to CONTINUE to vote Democrat!
In fact, I don’t believe that the majority of Democrat voters hate America.
I believe they are conditioned to vote Democrat and we must convince them that by voting Democrat, they really are voting AGAINST THEIR OWN BEST INTERESTS.
IOW, THEY ARE VOTING AND AGAINST AMERICA AND THEIR FRIENDS, THEIR FAMILY AND THEIR CO-WORKERS!
