    Pete is intelligent, articulate, well-educated and seems like an all-around good guy. I hope he stays in politics, no matter how disheartening and difficult it can be. We need people like him in government to counter all the crazy nitwits.
  • @whitequeen96
    I love this guy! I also admire and respect him. He's absolutely brilliant, but is humble and down-to-earth. I'd love for his family to end up in the White House.
  • Smartest man in public service. I would vote for him in a heartbeat.
  • I have liked and respected Pete right from the start. He is an intelligent, kind and humble man who truly cares about his family and his country and he has been doing a fantastic job for all of us. Happy Fathers Day Pete and Chasten.
  • @BellaWorldAni
    How ANYONE can not respect and admire and ADORE this man and his family is beyond me.
  • @sjstone.7989
    I once chatted to Pete's uncle in Malta, where the family originally came from. They are proud of him. He is such a genuine guy.
  • @cindyk4294
    Buttigieg was my choice for the nomination… he’s bright, well spoken, well educated and level headed.
  • Wow what a touching interview. Papa really showed his true heart about how he feels for his FAMILY. The last few minutes really touched my HEART. HAPPY FATHERS DAY TO PETE and CHRISTIAN 😊
  • @RJ-go3sn
    A true family consists of real love! And this is a true & loving family! Pete and Chasten are real men, not afraid to show, give and receive love. Happy Father's Day to them!

    Anyone man can be a Father but it takes a special man to be a Dad. Happy Dad’s day to two loving Dad’s
  • And to think Martha Ann Alito, a Christian, has hate in her heart for something so beautiful and incredible as this. Pete and Chasten, you are a beacon of hope, light, intelligence and true family values in these dark times. I hope to see you both in the White House someday soon.
  • @Nopadope
    What a gentle man and a gentleman.❤
  • @mjunekirk5527
    How can you NOT respect, admire and down right love this guy?
  • You will have your children as adults for many many years. But you only have them as "babies" for a very short time.
  • @nonabliss
    What a cute and wonderful family! I hope Pete Buttigieg runs for president again. He would be a great POTUS. He seems like a highly intelligent and capable man who has compassion and heart. Those are all the qualities that I want in my president.
  • Someday, Pete will go down as one of the best presidents this country has ever had, that is, if this country can survive that long.
  • @NC-qc7wd
    I was filled with emotion as tears welled up in my eyes when his voice broke, feeling so proud of him.
  • Pete Buttigieg, I'm a fan! Always love hearing what you have to say. Happy Father's Day to you and Chasten!
  • @thomthom6268
    I just realized I'm old enough to be Pete's Papa. He seems so much better at it than I would be.
