"Our neighborhoods are safer when there is trust between communities and the police who are in charge..." — Pete Buttigieg

In my generation, thankfully, as somebody who served in the Afghanistan War, would have served in the Iraq War, if called to do so - was also strongly against the Iraq War, from the beginning - I'm so thankful that we live in a moment that we can honor the troops separately from policy.

The Electoral College needs to go, because it's made our society less and less democratic.

There's this romantic idea that's built up around war. But the pragmatic view is there are tons of people of my generation who have lost their lives, lost their marriages, or lost their health as a consequence of being sent to wars which could have been avoided.

I think most Americans understand that we deserve to have universal health care, as enjoyed by most citizens in most developed countries.
