“I don’t think you need a lot of advice from me on bravery. You seem pretty strong,” Buttigieg told Ro. “It took me a long time to figure out how to tell even my best friend that I was gay, let alone to go out there and tell the world. And to see you willing to come to terms with who you are in a room full of 1,000 people, thousands of people you’ve never met, that’s really something.”“The first thing is that it won’t always be easy, but that’s OK because you know who you are.
Buttigieg continued, “The second thing I want you to know is that you’ll never know who’s taking their lead from you, who’s watching you and deciding that they can be a little braver because you have been brave. When I was trying to figure who I was, I was afraid that who I was might mean that I could never make a difference. And what wound up happening instead is that it’s a huge part of the difference I get to make. I never could’ve seen that coming.
Buttigieg came out in his 30s, soon after he was elected mayor of South Bend. He’s now our country’s first openly gay presidential candidate, and people like Zachary Ro are showing why that kind of representation is so important.
Once again, using a child for a political agenda and votes. How disturbing.
