Yang can unite the most people.

I think that was made very obvious at the McIntyre-Shaheen event.

The views on the videos of those speeches reinforce that assessment. His speech has over 37k views. Other candidates are all below 10k. Well below.

It's disappointing that that doesn't seem to be translating into actual support.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

On March 4, he will either still be in the race, or he'll be out of it. Maybe before then, really.

I love yang! I truly appreciate his freedom dividend and want to see it. I want to see him do well, but I work full time at a burger joint so I can’t donate(I don’t make enough). I’m sad to hear he doesn’t have quite the support he needs in that regard, but I understand. Many supporters are probably in the same boat.

Aside from the UBI (which I think most voters discount), he doesn't talk about hard policies to address the automation economy problems he talks about.
