Pete is building a never seen before grassroots movement across the country

His grassroots supporters are virtually his devotees. Discuss.

I just determined I can't vote for him unless it's in the general election.

What's wrong with that sentence, R1?

Both he and his dog are cute. Somehow he reminds me of Bjork there.

So the grassroots are posting childhood pictures on Twitter. Yeah right.

The fact that you can't tell is reason enough not to tell you.

Uh, there's nothing wrong with that sentence.

Exactly, R6. R5, you may be a grammar Nazi in another language, not English.

Awww! Little gayling Pete was adorable!

He does look like he could be Bjork's son, r3.

He's building a grassroots movement without any African Americans.

So sad that many people nowadays don't recognize proper grammar or the lack of it.

I think grammar Nazi might have preferred "my parents and me".

[quote]the pronouns you use to refer to yourself, such as “me,” and “I,” are different from other pronouns. With those three, put them last in a list, meaning you got it right when you said, “That’s won’t work for Maria and me.” Think of it as a matter of politeness, as if you're opening a door and letting the other person walk through it first.

It's not a grammatical issue, r15. Either works. Grammar Nazi is dumb.

A grassroots movement built around Howard Dean too. People drove across to country to join up. Obama's astroturf built on that. Pete is very smart. I'm sure he's gauging the situation closely.

How long is this nomination thing going to go on anyway? When's the DP convention? We'll see how much momentum grassroots fathers by then.

And what each movement had in common can be seen in a crowd view of their supporters.

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg held a self-described grassroots campaign rally in Bronzeville on Tuesday night, but the overwhelmingly white audience he drew to the event in a historic black neighborhood reinforced the difficulty the Democratic presidential hopeful has had in connecting with African American voters.

Buttigieg did not acknowledge the makeup of the audience in his remarks or in answering questions from the 1,000 people at the sold-out event, but did touch on it briefly as he closed the hourlong rally with a plea for his supporters.

“Find the people who don’t look like most of you in this room and let them know they have the chance, not just to support this campaign, but to shape it,” Buttigieg said.
