Al,
Since I know nothing about the South Bend economy under Mayor Pete (One of these days I'll learn how to spell his name), I tried to google up some info on the matter.
Linked below is an article which gives Mayor Pete a pretty good grade on improving the South Bend economy. The below article (https://www.marketwatch.com/story/an-indiana-economist-looks-at-south-bends-revival-under-pete-buttigieg-2019-04-12) focuses on the challenges facing Mayor Pete in trying to re-build South Bend's economy. .
[To try to put the matter into a little better perspective for myself, I look at my own home town, which, with a population of 87,000 is almost as big as South Bend.
I have to say that it would be inconceivable for me to consider our mayor running for the Presidency.
Admittedly, he is not a Harvard graduate, nor a Rhodes Scholar who speaks seven languages--and my town is not a big university town].
