32. Somebody needs to talk him out of this!

If Andrew Yang is as smart as I think he is, he'll listen to good advice.

Why can't President Biden interest him in doing something positive within the system. There are still a lot of good unfilled positions in the Biden administration. Look at all the great things Pete Buttigieg is doing, Yang can do the same in another field that's equally important.

If he wants to run for Pres again in a few years ... well OK fine. Join the crowd.
