Pete Buttigieg spoke at Rev. William Barber’s church in North Carolina, discussing racial and inequality issues that are highlighted in the Poor People’s Campaign platform. But will this be enough to raise his support among Black voters?

  1. Pete Boot's problem is he doesn't have a black agenda … he's got a "Douglass plan" … but when you over it, its full of speak of minorities, urban people, poor people, …. etc. we want a BLACK AGENDA for BLACK PEOPLE. Just like jews have their policies that doesn't include minorities, women, urban people and other coded language meant to include everyone else.

  2. If he becomes the front runner I’m voting for Trump. he don’t want me Vote. Same go’s for bloomberg.

  3. upon a womans child getting shot and killed he was confronted by a crowd about the incident when nothing was done about it. he gave a really B.S. reason and when confronted about his attitude, one black woman stated, "you know an election is coming up and you are not addressing the communities issues. PETE said to the crowd of black people, "I AM NOT LOOKING FOR YOUR VOTE". I THINK IF HE IS NOT LOOKING FOR IT, HE SHOULD NOT GET ANY……… BLACK PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE PETE IS BECAUSE HE IS A RACIST…… IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS BEING GAY, WHICH THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA IS REPORTING……. HE ALSO FIRED A BLACK POLICE CHIEF BECAUSE SOME RACIST WHITE POLICE OFFICERS AND CITY OFFICIALS PUSHED HIM INTO DOING IT.

  4. I'm a Canadian. Geographically speaking, we keep our crazy, pedophile, warmongering "Uncle" in the basement…

  5. Really did not like this at all… Few points: 1) key words like poor people and low income communities are coded for not saying Black people. 2) The Black community under 50 (some) are leaning in other political directions so going to Rev. Barber is a no… Research the ADOS. Lastly 3) his sexuality is not a concern, his White Male Supremacy complex is….Real news you're going to have to get a lot more real on this topic

  6. Just a rhetorical… we have had a black pres, a white supremist, why not a woman? or a gay? Pete in my gut, is not for democratic party… we need public option healthcare and a climate crisis strategy.

  7. OBAMA IS NOT BLACK! His mama was White. The people who raised him were White and Indonesian. How does that make him Black??? There are plenty of cultures with people who LOOK Black that we KNOW are NOT ADOS. We don’t get upset; we just understand they are NOT US and their behavior shows they are NOT FOR US. Many of these people are even AFRICAN. Others are from India, the Middle East or the Pacific Islands. Why is it different for Barack??? Because WHITE people will not claim him and insist that WE/ADOS do!! ENOUGH ALREADY!! And, ADOS/FBA should STOP LISTENING to ANYONE who insists that Obama is Black. HE IS WHAT HIS MAMA IS NO MATTER WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE!

    Finally, conflating gays and “marginalized” or “poor” people means you have no experience in REALITY. GAYS – except dufess ,wayward, BW blaming Black gay males – are NOT POOR OR MARGINALIZED! Their agenda is being shoved down our throats (pun intended) left and right endangering our children, damaging our businesses and attacking our religious beliefs! Openly identifying gays/lesbians and other sexually troubled people make up less than 4% of the population yet have TONS MORE economic, social, political and educational power than Blacks, particularly ADOS/FBA. Get the FOH with that mess!!

  8. As long as BIG MONEY funds Mayor Pete's campaign, well if you guys don't get the message, we will end up with another Trump, but one whose much more ARTICULATE and SLICK! JUST LIKE OBAMA! We've had ENOUGH of these great speaking, intelligent Men, when Wall St and Big Money is in their BACK POCKETS & BANK ACCOUNTS! F MAYOR PETE!

  9. The gay discussion is a deliberate distraction to put His expertise speaking topic at the front. ( " no class issues please; it's a verbal struggle to hide my corporatism" )

  10. Buttigieg all of a sudden cares about black people. He probably didn’t know who Rev Barbour was. Mayo Pete is a lying sack🙄.

  11. Dr. Barber may be working himself to much. He has a cold and looks like he needs to be resting rather than indulging the neo-liberal myth makers. Dr. Barber could be President but not Buttijedge.

  12. Pursue he may, but fortunately, I 'm msure most of those in the audience were smart enough not to let themselves get caught. (long practice – sigh)

  13. There’s been some suspicions concerning Buttigieg now that he’s replaced Beto as the preferred pick by the establishment. There’s some interesting discussion on Moderate Rebels (free/YouTube) if you’re looking for more facts and past connections – especially in Iraq / military corporation.

  14. There is a strong religious culture against people sexual preferences in the whole planet. As well we have Saudi Arabia and most middle east countries against abusing, mistreating and violating women rights. No to mention, P Buttigieg has not policy at all which will benefit the most vulnerable of our country. He is 100 % compromised with the most dirty and disgusting interest warmongering, pharmas, and dark elite.

  15. About all the propaganda, and free TV air for P Buttigieg and big package of money obtain from the corrupted elite and corporation. And I also agree with the part where they want to stop Bernie Sanders and the people agendas like Medicaid for all, free education, pay off the student debt, etc..

  16. Let it be known, black generation X view the black church as an accompanist in oppression. Appearances with any Black Pastor is an insult and will not be taken seriously.#Ados

  17. He sounds like a boring liar, the type of fake politician that loses to a bigger liar like Trump.

  18. As if all the bot-like comments were not enough, I take a look at the full video, and the only Black people in attendance is the choir. Will some one explain that? Is his congregation even Black? As I recall, I've only seen him speak before White groups. Cornell West is another who speaks for Blacks, but does a lot of speaking before White groups or strictly University or intellectual setting. What makes that a public intellectual? I guess, as long as he is not know as a peoples intellectual, he can get away with it.

  19. I'm confused. Steiner says "he's stuck in his centrist mold". Whose perspective are they evaluating Buttigieg from – the Black or the Progressive? Blacks certainly don't vote progressive. They totally missed the point about him referencing scripture. He intentionally did not quote scripture, because the point was that it doesn't speak to the middle-class, which is what he had already said politicians are told to focus on, and which has been true for decades now. Some of the audience certainly got his ironic point, and they laughed. To me, on just optics, Buttitieg certainly looks more or as presidential as any other candidate. I also think that his being gay, is a reasonable concern.They countered that concern with Barney Frank, but he was not openly gay when he was first elected – only revealing it – well into his 2nd term. It is a lot easier to vote for someone already doing a good job. One point this panel failed to question is, why it is that a centrist from a traditionally Red state, and not the so-called progressives in the race, has policies that are specifically targeted to African-Americans and or Blacks? This whole analysis doesn't make sense to me. The so-called Progressive media is acting no different from the so-called establishment Left media. They both are trying to manipulate politics, and act as gate keepers to political office.

  20. SHAME ON ALL BLK CHURCHES THAT open their buildings to presidential candidates that only show up to do a quadrennial chit'ling circuit tour!

  21. Let us not forget that Obama was and still articulate; did Obama support the teachers union, as he said that he (Obama) would do during his term as president, did Obama support the people's water at Standing Rock and Flint, Mich. Obama did not give his Medicare for All as he promised; gave us Mitt Romney's Republican Healthcare which does not help All Americans health needs.

  22. No caninidate should be anywhere near a church, temple, sinague, etc. I don't care about your religious beliefs at all. Show me your policies and record and stop pandering! You're not fooling us, Barack Obama already did that.

  23. I"m a successful black man 48 years old Republican from South Carolina.I have been living in Waikiki for 15 years. Several years ago this NAACP RACIST FALSE PROPHET BS Barber was saying blacks in North Carolina could not afford ID' to vote..I called the DMV in North Carolina and spoke to the director.I told her who I was and wanted to donate $5,000 for black people who could afford ID"S. She informed me that state ID"s were free. I then called BS Barber and informed him who I was and I did not like the NAACP. I told him I would pay for 10 15 passenger van fuel and insurance. I asked him could he and the other black churches find drivers to pickup and take the poor blacks who could afford free ID"S to the DMV. He told me no and asked me for a donation. I hung up the phone.

  24. He's strong four due to all the corporate money he receives.. why vote for this idiot when we have the original Bernie Sanders???
