Maybe he just prevented a future suicide, due to helping him overcome the fear of coming out.I am very leery about having a nine-year-old become the focus of a media circus about Buttigeg's sexuality.
An old political axiom asks, "Yes, but how will it play in Peoria?"
Not well, would be my guess.
Denver, Colorado (CNN)Pete Buttigieg shared an emotional moment with a young supporter in Denver on Saturday night.
"Thank you for being so brave," the boy, later identified as 9-year-old Zachary Ro, wrote in a question submitted via fishbowl during the presidential hopeful's Saturday rally, "Would you help me tell the world I'm gay, too? I want to be brave like you."

Maybe children shouldn't be used to shill for political causes.Maybe he just prevented a future suicide, due to helping him overcome the fear of coming out.
Really?Maybe children shouldn't be used to shill for political causes.
Really?
I think to have all those people in the same city without getting them together right as the plane lands just to put them in a political pony show is utterly pathetic.
No, I didn't.he meant democrats shouldn't do it
how did you miss the context clues?
Oh so you are going on record that the military reunion at the state of the union was a jerk move then?No, I didn't.
No, I'm going on record that the Commander-in-Chief at the State of the Union Address in the halls of Congress addressing a military family issue is a totally different thing than an also-ran presidential candidate at a campaign rally addressing a childhood sexuality issue.Oh so you are going on record that the military reunion at the state of the union was a jerk move then?

Just be glad that you are not on the side of the political spectrum as those who have to pretend they don't understand that.
thank you for proving my point even though the proof wasn't necessary at allNo, I'm going on record that the Commander-in-Chief at the State of the Union Address in the halls of Congress addressing a military family issue is a totally different thing than an also-ran presidential candidate at a campaign rally addressing a childhood sexuality issue.
I proved your point is wrong due to perspective, but let's not quibble.thank you for proving my point even though the proof wasn't necessary at all

Looking at it dispassionately, as a father and grandfather, I wouldn't want to see one of my own paraded around a stage like that at that age regarding anything involving sexuality.Doesn't sound like you should be leery. Sounds like you you should be excited that "the Left" is showing it's true colors. Since this doesn't play well in Peoria, that's makes Trumps reelection more likely, no? That should make you pretty happy.

At least for me, it has little to do with who I favor politically. It has to do with right and wrong. To me, as a parent and grandfather, that's wrong.
Let the little guy reach the age of sexual consent before you put him and his name and his life out there on display for the world regarding anything sexual.

Yes, I question the parent's judgement.His mother was obviously right there and consented to her son asking the question. Her son obviously wanted too. Your personal moral code aside, it seems you should have a much bigger problem with them than with the Buttigieg campaign. Assuming you want to tell people how to live their lives and what is acceptable for them to ask a political candidate in public that is, which clearly you are.
Yes, I question the parent's judgement.
The 10-year-old is just that . . . a 10-year-old.
Putting a 10-year-old on a stage in a national spotlight about anything dealing with sexuality smacks of child abuse to me.
Whether he wanted to do such a thing is irrelevant. He's 10.
The question screeners should have pulled the plug on this one.
