Can we please not have another consultant in higher office???

I don't think Pete is quite at the level of "consultant," but I'm also not saying he's our best option. Just that, in a field of "anyone would be better than what the racist oligarchs are fielding" he seems like an actively-good candidate rather than a neutral or bad one.

He was a McKinsey guy so very much a consultant.
