Governor Pritzker's Political Persona
JB Pritzker, the Governor of Illinois, discusses his strategic approach to politics, notably his crafted image as a 'regular Chicago guy'. He highlights that, despite not being from Chicago or having grown up there, he adopted this persona to resonate with Illinois voters who are typically more relatable to a down-to-earth image. Pritzker believes that having someone who appears to be an everyday American on a political ticket, particularly for vice president, could help balance representation in the Democratic Party. He humorously notes that his wealthy upbringing does not detract from his relatability; instead, he sees it as an opportunity to inspire others, suggesting that anyone could achieve similar success given the right circumstances.
