He's what is called a drifter. A fake ass politician who just says what sounds good, but never actually follows through with any of the things he says. Because the truth is,he doesnt stand for anything. It's almost worse than being a republican. Because at least we know how deluded and wrong they are. In short: He's full of shit. People know it,a d it's annoying to people who can actually see and understand if someone is being honest.
Yang stands for himself. He also stands for giving Trump a better chance to win with his No Labels party on the ballot, knowing quite well that No Labels party stands no chance to win the 2024 election. I was leaning towards third party when Ross Perot ran, but in 2024 third party means Trump for 4 more years, and his son after.
hating on the establishment is not gonna amount to anything. the establishment is the American people. Americans are the most apathetic "knowledgable" voters. They know they are getting shafted and yet don't do anything about it cause they think they don't matter. It is the exact same story for Politicians! They feel like they can't do anything about it, while they recognize that the system is hurting everyone. The American mindset is the root of the problem, not the establishment. I remember clearly how leftists (bernie fans) had argued against their best interest when they opposed ubi in favor for a government job that bernie proposed. UBI was clearly the correct option and yet they voted against their interests! American leftists or the establishment are not the problem. The American mindset as a whole is the problem.
You are a positive person Andrew. Negative people pretend everything is fine when it isn't. Focusing on problems is positive because it's necessary to solve them.
@@markfarmer7534 Are you kids positive you aren't describing an "optimist"? Someone who behaves as if things are good even if they're bad? Optimist might be a stretch, but you are talking about THE OPPOSITE of negative behavior, for sure.
@jamesonknott I entirely disagree. Addressing an issue is likely to sound more pessimistic because you're admitting there is an issue to begin with. When there is something that needs to be fixed, and your course of action is to ignore it, and tell people there is no problem, you might sound positive, but it's a surface level facade to disguise malignant stagnation. I don't see how this could be considered positive, unless you're saying that all of the American people should be treated like children too infantile to discuss strife.
love myself some Yang. So good at looking at the big picture and articulating the truth about our system. In 2016, people that voted for Trump were attracted to his frankness. I believe Andrew uses that same strategy, but with solutions and hope. To everyone mentioning RFK, he specifically said he's staying away from the presidential election because it's detrimental to his goals of fixing our voting system. Our country can't function until you fix that. No candidate will do that from the oval office
Ranked choice may help. Voting checks and balances are working fine. It's the Gerrymandered maps and state suppression from candidates YOU elect that's the issue. Brennen Center and Democracy Docket may assist in research.
Aurora ceo chris urmson said in an interview early this year that self driving trucks will be fully operational by the end of 2024. If he's correct we're going to have a lot of problems.
We also need to do away with smart phones for all the jobs they put to an end. And just look at how the horse & buggy industry never recovered from the automobile.
Your articulation of our current political system is so spot on. Most people are not happy with the way things are and it’s reflected in what we see happening in the world right now.
I’m so glad you got on this forum Andrew Yang I was an avid Yang Gang supporter and remembered how you asked us to donate to Marianne Williamson 2020 campaign. You interviewed her earlier this year and yet you didn’t even mention her name as an alternative to Joe Biden. I’m disappointed because Williamson’s policies most resembles your policies in 2020 Still a Forward Party supporter because of RCV
We should vote for a third party rather than one of the two main ones in the 2024 election, because that goal of giving the public confidence to vote for a third party in future elections is more important than preventing Trump from being president again. The Democratic party will f it up too, we need to not vote for them out of fear of trump
Because Forward party supports never Trump mindset over real change and actual forward progression RFK supports Ubi and RCV... he is a threat to Joe Biden and donald trump which Andrew Yang is in bed with and has supported completely! Both Joe Biden and Donald trump-own the exact same pharmaceutical stocks, Andrew Yang probably does too... they're about to put Donald Trump back in office and use him to take over Mexico or Venezuela.
@@kevintse2870 well there was cornell west mention... RFK was mentioned belittling him with Bobby and saying he has no chance... obviously staged to set public perspective on topic that people believe he can't win that way the people will think the same. I think forward party is failing or in bed with pharmaceutical companies and not seizing Allegiance of candidates and pledge to basic principles of forward... human centered... account for automation and adjust ubi based on total automation percentage of economic production. Stick to Selflessism one for all but never all for one! We lookout for wat is best for all... escape frontal lobe of concentration tunnel vision and expand back into fisheye subconscious flow state.
@@50thanniversary68 I think sometime in the future, Vivek should join forces with Yang's party. That would be truly phenomenal. They'd decimate every debate.
For someone as intelligent and as qualified not being elected as the president of USA, calling it disappointing is an understatement. Find one politician who car answer questions straight and knowledgeable as Yang. Not many if any, no one rock the show like Yang does. MATH.
TBH . Haven’t listened followed Andrew much since his campaign. However this one is gold, showing himself in top form. Straight forward and eloquent that everyone at levels can understand!!!
I agree with Andrew Yang concerning the Electoral College. I also like his idea for Universal Basic Income. Thank you for sharing this conversation with Mr Yang.
Without universal healthcare, education, childcare, and rent controls/stopping private equity from buying single family homes - that universal basic income will be eaten by these other costs because magically people have more money so landlords and industry will charge more knowing that and we’ll hear about inflation for god knows how long.
Been away for a while. Glad to see this interview. I think that whole 200 million to push through 3rd party statement needs ITS OWN CAMPAIGN. I think, by the numbers, people would be both shocked and excited at the prospect of a cheap underdog story
Yangang 2020 was without a doubt magical and I cried my heart's out for this man for the way he was being treated. We yangangs believe Andrew will become the president 1 day soon and we can't wait!
Being unhappy is not an illness. There are reason people should be unhappy about. But you never see doctor labeling happy people as mentally I’ll or retarded. I volunteered for Andrew last time. I will not again. Surrendered too early. I suspect his purpose was just to pull republicans voters (which I felled for). Commander in chief is an important position. People should not run unless they are ready to die fighting.
Want to supercharge the ranked choice voting movement? Get Elon to switch Twitter polls to use them. Within a year millions will realize how obviously superior it is to finding a majority consensus on any topic (not just politics).
Lol Elon is a republican and it's a burden for polls like that, but it'd be a nice additional option. Also it'd expose a flaw in RCV when the 3rd place finisher is actually preferred to both 1st and 2nd head to head
@@ckq Elon has always voted Democrat and he only endorsed Yang (running as a Democrat). Progressives are just as tribal as MAGA and their echo chambers tell them who to hate. Neither of these tribes think for themselves. They just parrot what their echo chambers leaders claim. If you judged Elon rationally and fairly, you would see how much he cares about humanity. Progressives and MAGA just want to cancel what they don't like of each other and they despise each other because they are so much alike. More practical and smarter people like Elon and Yang know better that tribalism is destroying the country. I am very liberal minded and I am for progress, but I don't play the tribal game. It's backwards and detrimental to any country. "United We Stand And Divided We Fall". Clearly, this moto no longer meaningful for MAGA and Progressives. Just because Elon doesn't hate half of the country, doesn't mean he is a Republican or a bad person. In RCV how can a more preferred candidate end up in 3rd place? I'm not seeing your exposed flaw.
@@ckq Not sure you understand how RCV works. It is not possible to win if 2 other options have more #1 votes than you. For example, if option A and option B each have 40% of #1 votes, and option C has 20% of #1 votes then C cannot win no matter how many #2 votes it has. The whole point of this is to empower people to vote what they actually want with their #1 choice instead of feeling pressured into the "mainstream" option. But it still would not even close to guarantee a 3rd option would win. 50.1% of people would still have to rank that option higher than a mainstream option. These type of misconceptions are exactly why the public needs to see RCV play out for lower stakes votes (i.e. Twitter poll on what your favorite candy bar is).
No, the country does not benefit from "if most Americans want something, that's what we should be getting." Most Americans vote for whatever benefits them the most without giving a thought to what is in the best interests of the nation as a whole.
When the empty gas light comes on in your car, it is math to tell you that you should need to do something about it. You wouldn't risk driving another 30 miles before refueling. Yang's math and ideas during his presidential run made sense. But people avoided the math and common sense. I'm just thankful that he still continues to fight for a country that is for everyone. AI.....UBI....let's pay attention to the data and vote for people who are passionately working to navigate us through these tough times. Maybe all the actors who are affected by AI can use their platform to promote these candidates at all levels to help everyone. Actors who are striking due to many issues and AI is just an example. Maybe people who have ideas can see how we can get these ideas through to people, everyday regular people who are not getting the message.
No one needs to be positive all the time, telling the truth, either good or bad, is a real positive attitude. Anyone only reporting good news but burying the bad news is a phony. Andrew Yang’s parents are from Taiwan. His policy toward the “US Made Proxy War Two - Taiwan/China” concerns me the most. As his Taiwanese parent, that i am extremely familiar with Taiwanese’s Political agenda, that is, just copied from Taiwan Leader Tsai-In-Wen. she will jump whenever her Master flips its fingers. Yang politics are absolutely influenced by his Taiwanese parents re: Taiwan/China/US. They are Pro-US against China 99%. That is, extremely dangerous as today’s Political Currency. Lots of people viewed his interview years back, and didn't agree with his view perTaiwan/China policy, that he is absolutely following the US policy doing its dirty tricks in these vital issues.
It speaks to how low down the legacy media is that this lady thinks she gets good boy points for just showing up even though Andrew basically had to run his own interview here.
It's the ripe time to form a third party to give people a fair choice! People are in dire to seek a respectable, improved good government comes Forward!
disappointing yang.. WEF front man after all. i'm retiring my MATH hat. purposefully avoiding RFKjr who is the closest to your approach and libertarian leanings ... it's ABSURD u omit him from your lips.. and rattle off a bunch of clowns no one outside an automated voting machine would waste time with.
I am a Canadian who LOVES the fact that we have 5 elected federal parties and that our current Minority Parliament forces Trudeau's Liberals to collaborate with the Social Democratic NDP party (which currently holds the balance of power) when crafting legislation.... Having a parliamentary democracy means that IF / When a majority of members of the House of Commons (from whatever party) vote AGAINST the government's legislation it automatically/immediately triggers a national election... Thus, EVERY ISSUE ends up decided upon by the consensus opinion of the majority of the people. As you know with your 2 party majority system, Biden ran on and was voted in espousing 15 dollar a day minimum wage NOT spending hundreds of billions on provoking a proxy war in the Ukraine. This kind of bait-and-switch does not happen to the same extent with minority governments in Canada. Instead, important economic issues like nationally subsidised daycare ( $10 per day) or nationally subsidised dental care, gun control maintaining excellent public education remain our legislative priorities... Hurrah for Andrew Yang and the Forward party. Good luck to the USA ( and we in Canada as your vassal) as we brave the inevitable upheaval/ transition of the rest of the world dropping the Petrodollar as the world's reserve currency to join the rise of the BRICS economic union. I think Andrew Yang is smart enough to figure out how to counter this. I hope the Forward party fields candidates in as many currently uncontested elections as is possible and smart forward thinking people like Andrew Yang and his followers get elected across the USA.
The guy w/the question at 50 minutes doesn't get it. To say that virtually every Democrat has voted for what "the American people want" so we just need more Democrats is a ridiculous statement. He's basically saying Democrats vote for what the American people want and Republicans don't. The whole point of the Forward Party, as Yang keeps pointing out, is for candidates to reflect the wishes of their constituents. We don't all want the same thing regardless of how much this guy wants to think that "the American people" all agree with his political views.
All I am asking Andrew to do, presently, is have RFKJr on his podcast to discuss AI and the regulations required to keep humanity safe. Remember "Humanity First"?
So many interesting facts about the importance of LOCAL elections. I love the idea of Democracy dollars! Would like to hear him speak more on a a time based social currency.....TimeBanking needs a few super techno-savvy people to bring the concept into 2023!
I think his point was that all those people were standing down at the DNC's request, so that it looks like only unserious people are running against Joe. And it's not Andrew's opinion that they're unserious, it's the opinion of the DNC and the establishment.
So disappointing.. Andrew mentions 5 people who are not running for president but refused to mention 2 people who actually are .. Bobby Kennedy and Marianne Williamson. You don't have to lean one way or the other but at least acknowledge their existence.. especially that you know how it felt when you were left out
You need a Master of Ceremony (MC) for your events to make your audience super-lively. Maybe some plain clothes cheerleaders to? That's what drumpf does
Everyone if you get a chance go back watch Andrew in the Iowa caucus. The Iowa caucuses make me want to drop a rubbery one. I have never seen so much lunacy
We need our elders no matter what. I think they serve a better purpose as an advisory board that provides advice from elders. Leading? Maybe not if they are 90+ that's when you need to focus on staying healthy, not working.
Strategy recap - FP should propose ACTUAL draft proposed Constitutional Amendments on electoral reform, and run on this platform. We can probably all agree on this.
Great interview. I wish they had gotten a better question than the completely stupid "wHy dONt wE JuSt eLEcT mORe dEMoCraTs?". Completely wasted question and missed opportunity for more intelligible conversation.
Andrew has another 40 years to run for office! He is gaining traction, and making his name known, and getting the trust of the american ppl. He knows what he is doing. He is building something more then just for now. He is smart. He is building for his and our future.
I woud like Andrew Yang to meet with Vivek Ramaswamy and discuss current issues. Both re first generation immigrants and both are taking a novel view of the political situation in the United States. Actually woudl be great if Anrew represents Democrats and Vivek Republicans in final election in 2024.
Andrew wants us to be in the age of abundance, but he is too ahead of our time - some folks will not like this because they will no longer be special. Furthermore, not yet everything can be automated. Example, hi-tech farming still is too costly. If when this day comes, Andrew would be correct - otherwise he is not!
Too much choice can be counter productive as well. Some countries have twenty people running for their leadership. That would never help us in America.
To the american of Brazilian accent : "I hear a beautiful accent. Where is it from?" would have been much nicer than "what country are you from". A classic nowadays!
I think the one problem with Andrew Yang is that he isn't presidentially oriented at all times as are the problem with most 3rd party so called leaders. Great ideas, no movement
Hi I'm Ariful Islam leeton im software developer and members of the international organization who and members of the international telecommunications and co founder open A. I And investors public and private sector
I think Vivek Ramaswamy is going to meet the same fate as Andrew Yang did. I sure hope that sometime in the future, they join forces and provide people the third alternative they truly deserve.
I don't freaking care what it is. If its an alternative to the democrats. I'll take it. I'm all for it. And he's right about everyone not being represented the way things are with the present 2 party system.
