first asian president of the united states?

We need a rad­i­cal­ly left Pres­i­dent. Period.

We need that per­son to push against the ris­ing fas­cism in Amer­i­ca. To hedge the com­ing eco­nom­ic cri­sis. To lit­er­al­ly SAVE THE PLAN­ET FROM DEATH.

And we need to spend 2019 and 2020 get­ting cen­trists on the same page. We can­not slow and steady our way out of this mess we’re in, we lit­er­al­ly don’t have enough time.

This is An­drew Yang.

I found him via @theLLAG.

An­drew Yang’s most fas­ci­nat­ing pol­i­cy imo is uni­ver­sal in­come. Don’t even start with how to af­ford this; we spend tril­lions on war and we leave as much on the ta­ble re­fus­ing to tax the wealth­i­est who are de­stroy­ing the plan­et. Any ar­gu­ments be­yond that against it are about wor­thi­ness … is mass mur­der more worthy?

Al­low­ing peo­ple to have their needs met re­gard­less of abil­i­ty to ‘con­tribute to so­ci­ety’ would dra­mat­i­cal­ly cut do­mes­tic vi­o­lence, crime, home­less­ness, the im­pacts of in­sti­tu­tion­al ‑isms, the pow­er that cor­po­ra­tions have over our lives and pol­i­tics, that’s just what’s at the top of my head. I also have this feel­ing it could slow down the news/media cy­cle, al­low­ing for a less re­ac­tionary cul­ture in general.

It’s also im­por­tant that our rad­i­cal­ly left pres­i­dent have a rad­i­cal­ly left gov­ern­ment to sup­port them, oth­er­wise they’re just a talk­ing head.

It’s very im­por­tant we spend 2019 and 2020 find­ing those can­di­dates and sup­port­ing them. Oca­sio-Cortez pulled her cam­paign to­geth­er in­cred­i­bly quick, but why take chances?
