Nice guy, but not exactly stirring

I was drawn to this book by Mayer Pete's biography; once one gets past his unconventional resume, however, the big message seems to be about competence and technical fixes to problems. That's a great vision for a mayor or a cabinet secretary, but the idea that being smart and hardworking is qualification enough to be president shows low low the bar has sunk. Sadly, the further I read in the book the less interesting and the less impressive Mr. Buttigieg became.
