Twitter Travels for Pete with Sue Ann Rawlins

Although Pete Buttigieg is no longer running for President, his legacy lives on in the campaign's Rules of the Road, which are applicable for anything we do in life. In this episode, my guest Paula Radell and I cover the first two Rules: RESPECT and BELONGING.

It's 10 days before the Iowa Caucus and I'm in Iowa City talking to super-volunteer Barbara Clark (@spiritedstrider on Twitter). In addition to her Pete story, Barbara tells us how caucus night will unfold. She's got the inside scoop because she's serving as party Precinct Chair for her precinct.

Back in September, I attended a Lis Smith fundraiser in Washington DC where I met many of my DC Pete Twitter friends.
