Re: Future 101: Pete Buttigieg and Building Back Better
Of particular note and value in this discussion is Buttigieg's understanding of what gave rise to Trump and the need to repair the system after him - not by rebuilding what he tore down but by building new in a way that actually fixes the problems that have been fueling populist sentiment. It may be the most inspiring political "speech" I've heard in a long time.
