Description
Before he announced he was running for president and before the nation dubbed him "Mayor Pete," Pete Buttigieg was the mayor of South Bend, Indiana. He served in the U.S. Navy Reserve. He was a Rhodes Scholar who studied at Oxford, Harvard, and all over the world. He was senior class president at Saint Joseph's High School. And before all that, Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg was a kid with a dream.
