I don't think I'm being "homophobic" in pointing out that the poor showing Buttigieg had down south ended his presidential run. I think people are "jumping your case" in this thread because of the way you "generalized" blacks as a whole,you then corrected this with a later post and good on you for doing so. BTW, getting back to Buttigieg for a moment, if you remember I personally said I thought he was the best candidate the democrats had going and when he dropped out it was widely reported that the reason being was his poor showing with minorities in the south who were undoubtedly judging him by his sexual orientation.
What you say may indeed be the case, but I think there were some gentrification and law enforcement issues during his time as mayor of South Bend that didn't help him, either.
