ICHEOKU says if Iowa says yes then America will have no choice but follow the lead or at least give him a fighting chance without walling him off because he chose a different lifestyle. Iowans did it with Barack Obama when against all odds, they signed on to a black candidate and it propelled Barack Obama all the way to win the presidency, and twice.
So, is America once again headed to the same road previously traveled with another improbable candidate come into being. The South Bend Indiana Mayor has zoomed past every other Democratic Party presidential candidate in the latest poll from Iowa, nearly doubling his closest rival, Elizabeth Warren at 25% to 16%; and you wonder what message Iowans are trying to telegraph to the rest of the country that it is okay to have a First Man in the White House as opposed to the traditional First Lady which America is used to having.
Short of his homosexual lifestyle and petite size, ICHEOKU has always maintained that Peter Paul Montgomery Buttgieg aka Pete Buttgieg is the best candidate for the Democratic Party. He is most qualified, most erudite, most articulate and most eloquent candidate amongst the wildebeests running for the 2020 presidential nomination of the Democratic Party. Youth is also on his side and he backs all the mentioned credentials with his military service. So, put in another words, Pete Buttgieg checks all the salient markers which makes a president fully grounded and having the right resume for the job, as he covered all the fields.
ICHEOKU's only nagging concern for his candidacy is whether America is ready for a homosexual president with a homosexual First Man occupying their White House. However, the canary in the mine of American political direction is the Great State of Iowa and if they approve of Pete Buttgieg, so be it; admitted that New Hampshire and the predominantly black South Carolina also tells something about the direction where the wind is blowing. But Iowa is usually the it and once they decide, most times, the rest of Americans usually follow their lead. Therefore the rise of Pete Buttgieg polls in Iowa is significant and must be a cause for concern for all the other presidential candidate currently jostling for the nomination of the Democratic Party.
That Pete Buttgieg is now the front runner in Iowa, passing Elizabeth Warren, who has of late become too anti men, anti white people, anti successful people and unabashedly nuts is understandable. Bernie Sanders ate the apple of death when he embraced the kiss of death that was the endorsement of the nut job from New York 6th Congressional District, crazed out wild eyed Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. Bernie Sanders poll numbers has sunk so low since that embrace and has never recovered, such that he is now trailing at number 4th position in Iowa at mere 15% approval, behind even Joe Biden at number three, whose play at the presidential nomination has since lost steam, his hot-air balloon which he is gliding to the White House with, having been punctured by the Ukrainian scandal.
ICHEOKU says provided Pete Buttgieg maintains his current momentum and takes it all the way through New Hampshire and South Carolina and secures the nomination; then picks a good vice presidential running mate, he will definitely give President Donald John Trump a run for his money in 2020; admitted he will not defeat the peoples president and leader of Team MAGA, who is unstoppable right now and is almost assured of a second term. But such a strong showing will give him all the headwind he will need in 2024 when he will once again definitely make another play for the White House with much confidence and better experience running a presidential campaign. Youth is on his side and he would have learnt a lot of lessons on how to run a presidential election and will be more optimistic with President Donald John Trump no longer running and the presidency will then be anybody's, to have.
ICHEOKU says likes Pete Buttgieg most among all the Democratic Party's candidates running for the presidential nomination. His eloquence, articulation and knowledgeable grapple of the issues are his most enviable credentials; added to his military service for the fatherland. Anyway, ICHEOKU wishes Pete Buttgieg luck in securing the Democratic Party's presidential nomination and hopefully the party's henchmen and women will allow the will of the nominating electorates to prevail this time; unlike the rigging that rigged out Bernie Sanders in 2016. That done, the future is very bright for the Mayor of the small middle America city of South Bend Indiana and American people will keep their eyes on this fella as he tries to write history for both himself and the American society at large. Go Pete Go!

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
