Andrew Yang for POTUS

Andrew is an outsider in every aspect of American politics, a non politician, an Asian, a young entrepreneur, a completely unknown. He is now ranked number 4 after several rounds of elimination in a contest to be the Democrats candidate to stand against Donald Trump, shoving aside more than 20 other more prominent candidates including senators and congressmen and women.

Many took Andrew Yang’s announcement to be in the race as a joke initially but are now having second thoughts. He is on the move, gaining more and more supporters and recognition as the race gets closer to 2020. There is still one more year to go and he is the only candidate that is gaining momentum each day. His latest prize is to raise $10m, $1.6m lesser than the third highest candidate in his third quarter fund raising, up from $2.8m. He is now behind Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

Andrew’s campaign is run under his most famous programme called Universal Basic Income, $1000 for every adult American with no exceptions. His followers, mainly young and internet and IT savvy, calling themselves the YangGang, wear a hat with the word MATH meaning Make America Think Harder. His popularity comes from his long list of policies to solve America’s problems of the 21^st Century instead of the normal politicking of politicians. He is unmatched in this approach as his intellectual and grasp of the problems America is facing put the rest of the candidate to shame.

And his MATH games is going to bring very far. He has slightly more than 300,000 donors so far and this is a small drop in the ocean of 350m Americans. The number is in his favour. All Andrew Yang needs is 1m Americans to give him $10 each and he will get another $10m. As the campaign gets closer to nomination day, it is not difficult for Andrew Yang to pull in 10m Americans or more to donate to his campaign and push the amount to $100m or more in campaign fund. 10m million young Americans plus the Afro and Asian Americans and the rest of the Americans whose jobs are threatened by technology, the Americans that are living from paycheck to paycheck would push his supporters way pass his democrat contenders.

Andrew Yang is on the roll. The math said so. The numbers said so. The displaced and jobless Americans said so. He is going to make history. The Americans are going to make history, after Obama.
