Pete Buttigieg: I’m ‘Flattered To Be Mentioned’ As a Potential VP Pick

LEMIRE: “You have been banded about as a possible running mate choice for Vice President Harris, so have you been contacted by the campaign, and would you be interested in serving in that role?”
Buttigieg: “Look, I think anybody would be flattered to be mentioned in that context. I certainly am. There’s really not much more that I can or should say about that process, other than that she’s going to make that decision. She knows what she’s doing. What I know is that I’m really excited, in whatever capacity, to be part of this campaign. I’m one of millions of Democrats who are clearly energized and fired up. There’s just a new energy, and it’s been extraordinary to me how quickly she has gathered the party around her with a sense of mission, a clear message, just in a matter of days. Of course, I’m thrilled to be part of that.”
