Andrew Yang - 21st Century President - Bernie/Ann Coulter/#ADOS/#YangGang

Hey you, welcome back to the channel. And, uh, it's, um, Easter Sunday. I hope you guys are having a great Easter Sunday. Um, I decided to get a video in right quick before I sit down to a nice dinner. Uh, just been relaxing all day. I'm a simple man. Uh, like one of Tupac's verses where he says, I'm a simple man. Uh, I forget what song that was. Uh, some of you probably all know. If you know it, leave it in the comment section. But you can also see Mr. Andrew Yang is, uh, a Tupac fan as well. And he's demonstrating, uh, what a futuristic president looks like. He's actually a hologram. As many of you probably have already seen this clip, he's actually a hologram standing next to a hologram of Tupac, the rap performer. And, uh, he's, uh, you know, doing this, doing this show, this exhibit. And this technology looks amazing. If you look at the hologram version of Andrew Yang You can't even, um, you can't even tell he's a hologram. Like, at first I thought he was on stage and Tupac, he was next to Tupac performing as the hologram, but the, the actuality is he's a hologram too. So you got two holograms, uh, on the same, on the same stage. So that's just amazing. Imagine what the next 10, 20 years is going to look like. Like, this technology is— because I remember when that Tupac hologram was first done a few years back. You can see the improvements in the technology, right? You can see that Andrew Yang's hologram looks a great deal more detailed and less like a hologram. So that's, that's amazing. Uh, and, uh, they call it, um, uh, bilocationism now, or telepresence. Futuristic terms coined that we'll have this kind of technology in the future. And So being this futuristic president, being this younger president who's running, that's going to attract a lot of younger people, right? As we're, as we're getting to see. Uh, and so I just thought that's amazing. So we're going to talk a little bit about that today. We're going to talk about some, uh, interesting stuff that happened with Bernie Sanders and Ann Coulter that was out, uh, in relation to Andrew Yang. Uh, and we're going to talk about the African descendants of slaves a little bit, uh, at the end of this. And so, Um, we're gonna get into it a little bit. So, uh, we know that we're just coming off of Andrew Yang's town hall meeting. A lot of us were sitting back waiting on the polls for that. Uh, when the polls were released, I believe, uh, they were actually released on Sunday. So really, they— of the town hall last week. So we didn't really get to see a lot of results of that. But since then, I think Andrew Yang had moved up several places. I believe he's ahead of Cory Booker now. And it's weird when I look at these Democratic, um, the people who are leading in the, in the, uh, in the, uh, as Democratic candidates who are leading the polls, uh, it is— when you look at those people, it is just so odd to me that some of these people are leading. Uh, Kamala Harris is still leading. Uh, um, there was, um, Elizabeth Warren. I, I think she's going to be the first people people that Andrew Yang overtakes. And then of course you have, uh, you have Pete Buttigieg. I believe I'm saying his name right. Pete Buttigieg. And Pete Buttigieg, he's interesting. I don't think he really has said anything concrete or, uh, said anything to get excited about, anything that's going to change anything. But his record is quite impressive because I think he was like one of the first youngest mayors. He— I believe he worked on a Kerry presidency, or was it the Obama presidency? One of them. I think he— it might even went back to Kerry, but He has a, he went to Harvard, I think. He just has a very impressive record about getting elected and, you know, so he's an impressive younger candidate as well. But he doesn't, you know, to me seem to be bringing anything that's gonna change the system significantly. Then of course we now have Joe Biden's gonna enter and he's winning in the polls. And of course Bernie Sanders, who looks like he's leading number one. So we're going to talk a little bit about that. So with the town hall, what was so great about it was that we got, for the first time, a lot of Americans got to see Andrew Yang and they got to ask questions. And I thought he did very well through that. Now I'm going to tell you one of my most, it was two parts I found very, I liked the most that impressed me the most. One was when the autistic gentleman, ask them a question because what I think that got a chance to do is we got a chance to see again Andrew Yang be a human being, a concerned citizen, concerned about autism, and be a good parent and how he dealt with the person who was concerned about his rights in America as an autistic person and the help and support that they would need. And then the next best question was more related to foreign policy. And, uh, I think Andrew Yang did a— I mean, this was probably the most impressive answer I've heard from a president, uh, candidate. A lot of times what happens when you're dealing with foreign policy, first thing that the president wants to do is he wants to assert a position like he's going to do all these things and make all these changes and be the force to stop any kind of foreign debacle we may get ourselves in, and a variety of things. But generally what happened when diplomacy breaks down, which is going to be the more severe situations, we usually start off with some type of sanctions and a variety of things and diplomacy to get people to the table. And you get a lot of stall tactics, right? And what it basically is going to come down to In the most severe case, in the cases we're more concerned about the most, is if we gotta go to war, right? So in a very fine way, Andrew Yang wrapped this all up, and I hope this answers all the foreign policy questions that people are so concerned about. But really, I think Andrew Yang just did it the best way, the simplest way, that how every candidate could do it. And what did he say? I will give the power to declare war back to Congress because when you declare war, this is something you need full support of. And who better to have handle that than the Congress of the United States, uh, showing the full representation of the people behind your decision. And Andrew Yang did that. Makes perfect sense. Uh, he doesn't try to come off as a foreign policy expert, delegate that authority and power to the people who are who need to make that decision, who are more qualified in some ways to make that decision. And so Andrew Yang is showing us a great deal of wisdom and how to delegate power and responsibility. Uh, so he did an excellent job in that. So let's talk about Bernie Sanders a little bit and this Ann Coulter thing that's been going around. It has something to do with Ann Coulter saying it, saying that she would vote for Bernie Sanders had he went back to his original position in 2007, you know, dealing with the immigration issues, right? With Senator Grassley. Now we know Senator Grassley is very conservative, a senator who was involved in the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court hearings, right? He was the one who was very vocal and very forceful but many of us know him from that. Apparently him and Bernie Sanders back in 2007 tried to pass this immigration lockdown, right? To tighten up on immigration, not letting immigrants in, and a variety of things like that. So Ann Coulter wants, if Bernie went back to that, he would have his full support as that was on his record at that particular time. Now we know that with Andrew Yang, he's made it quite clear that He will not let immigration be a scapegoat for people to say that's the problems in America. So a lot of times people switch to, okay, well, he's going to do this $1,000 a month thing. He needs to shut down that border. Well, the thing is, the problem is illegal immigration, not immigration. And what Andrew Yang has proposed was to make the bureaucracy of immigration better for people trying to get legal citizenship, but also tighten that southern border from illegal immigration. So I don't see any kind of compromise here with Andrew Yang as far as, um, him dealing with immigration in an effective way, uh, with the border, uh, being strengthened, the southern border being strengthened, but at the same time making a way so we can get quality immigrants through who are going to contribute to this country in a variety of ways. A lot of intelligent people immigrate to the United States that make America greater as well. So Andrew Yang wants to make it clear that automation of jobs has been the problem, not the old-time scapegoat of somebody's coming over here, take your job or take your benefits, and that's the problem. Um, and, and so I thought he clarified that well, and I, I think that's a great position to be in. Um, and so Bernie would have to switch his position for Ann Cordray to vote for him. I don't think Bernie's going to do that. I do still hate that that's on his record, But Andrew Yang's stance on immigration is firm in that, and I agree with that. I think it's a great approach to immigration and not demonizing it, trying to make it a scapegoat for other economic problems that exist in the country. Things like Amazon not paying taxes and the need to implement this VAT tax that most other nations have that we haven't used yet so we can get people help, to help this, um, this heavy debt that we carry simply by paying your taxes, right? That's one step to solving the deficit issue. Pay your taxes, right? If you're patriotic and if you're an American citizen, just because you can— you have a means to skate around paying taxes doesn't mean you should do it. You should be patriotic. And a company like Amazon should say something to the effect of, you know what, It is good to be in a country where we've had the opportunity to create a business through the spirit of entrepreneurship. And the last thing we want to do is try to skate around that in some way, even though we can. We want to pay our taxes, right? We want to find a way, uh, to do that, to help this country get out of this deficit. We make a lot of money, right? I think that's only fair. So, uh, let's move on to the last part of what I want to say in this particular video about Andrew Yang, and that is the African Descendants of Slaves. This is kind of a movement amongst African American people. I myself being one of them who fully support the African Descendants of Slaves initiative. I fully support it 2,000%. I just want to go on record as saying that. And, um, and what I want to say to people who have, who watch the videos and people who come in the comment section, and some of these people mean well. They really mean well, and they, they, they bring a message to the idea of how much Andrew Yang's policy will help the African Americans in the United States. But, but in addition to that, or the negative aspect of that, is then we get comments where people come in and what they do is they basically, uh, try to sweep this under the rug, right? So let me pause the video for a second because I'm— I gotta check on something and I'll be right back. You won't even notice I'm gone. Okay, didn't even notice I was gone. It would appear I have the agility of a jaguar and the speed of a mongoose. So what I was saying, guys, is, um, there are people that come into the room in the comment section and We have the people who mean well and think this is a solution for the African-American population in America, specifically directed to reparations, and which has been a big push, you know, throughout this election. But then you have people that come in, I noticed in the comments section, and they very quickly oversimplify, right? And I don't know if they're coming from a good place. Some of them I think might just want to go ahead and hurry up and push this under a rug. Uh, so, so let's talk about why we should be, uh, when addressing this issue, why people should be sensitive to this issue and really take a quick, a, a big look at it before they give a quick answer on, uh, or try to, you know, put together a quick solution for, for something that is so complex and that has been such a wound on this country's history. Uh, that it needs to be carefully addressed. So let's try to do it with an analogy first. Look, imagine, um, there is an incident of great property damage to my property, and you have, um, you know, driven a car into it or something like that. And we get into a conversation about how I'm to be compensated for this property. And what you do is you say something to the effect of, well, you know what, it is really bringing this country down, all these lawsuits, right? And we should be able to come together, move forward, work something out without, without, uh, you know, having courts involved and these many lawsuits and, and all of this and all of that. And so we're, we're able to come to an agreement on that. and I, and I tell you that, okay, I'm going to drop everything and we're going to just move forward. Uh, and the benefit to all of this is going to be that the country is made greater in the process because now instead of people want to sue everybody for everything, we've decided to kind of give this forgiveness clause and we kind of move forward and everything is fine. Okay. Now, what is the problem with that? Right. You might say, well, that sounds good, you know, in certain ways. And sometimes that might be the way forward. But I guess the problem in that would be that nobody corrected the issue of the property damage. My property's still destroyed. It wasn't repaired. It wasn't replaced. The people just pretty much want to move forward, uh, and let bygones be bygones, right? And that's the expectation. But see, the problem with all of that is kind of when we come in and we have these answers like, well, that $1,000 is going to do more for African American communities or is going to have such a positive effect on everything that it's going to by default kind of fix that. The problem with that is that it doesn't address the specific problem of my property damage. It's very similar to to the analogy I gave, or then you're going, well, because of the reduction of lawsuits and lawsuits and that we don't sue each other anymore, that the country is going to move forward better economically for everybody and so on and so forth. But the reality of it is that that wrong was not corrected, right? That wrong was not specifically addressed. That wrong was not specifically corrected. And because of that, um, groups like the African American descendants of slaves and, uh, some of the black voters aren't going to want to get on board to— excuse me— Andrew Yang's campaign. Because if they accept Andrew Yang's idea, and specifically what Andrew Yang said was something like this, he didn't say that reparations wasn't part of his agenda or that he wouldn't do anything about it. What Andrew Yang basically said was that Part of the issue is, you know, there's a lot going on with this universal basic income, the immense amount of money that a lot of people are still debating how it's going to be paid for and the overall good it's going to do. So with Andrew Yang, my thought process is he's thinking that would be the weight that just tips the whole campaign over. Now, you know, I could reason it another way. I could say, well, he's already spending so much money, throwing on another trillion, throwing on another half a trillion is not going to make that much of a difference, right? With everything that's out there already. So that it could be reasoned that way as well. But for whatever reason, this is the approach Andrew Yang wants to take with this. Now, what, what is a problem is that I believe Andrew Yang is going to be up against a lot. And he's going to need all the support he can get. And I think he's going to need the African American vote quite a bit. And to have that vote divided or uncertain, people making promises of reparations that they probably will or won't deliver, then that means Andrew's going to lose some of those African American voters. Uh, and what I have to say to the African American voters, the African American descendants of slaves, uh, these groups that I support, is that I had been saying years ago that if you didn't feel you were represented in this government, that it was your right to go out to, to create— if you got to form your own party, whatever you got to do. And so I pushed that several presidents ago, right? So now I can't go back and say they shouldn't be doing that, right? And I agree with what they're doing. I agree with the concept of if you continually kick the can down the road, kick the can down the road, kick the can down the road, that people are just going to look for you to do that and they're not going to take your demands seriously. They're not going to take your vote serious. So I understand that and that's why I support this. Now, speaking personally from myself, what I would say to the African descendant of slaves too is that before I even knew about the movement, although I had pushed it for so many elections ago, before I knew about it, uh, I, I was part of this passion project of mine that meant to supply universal basic income to not just Americans, but using blockchain technology to give it to the entire world, right? And so when Andrew— it's how I found out about Andrew Yang too, because, you know, when Andrew Yang, uh, a lot of people didn't even know who Andrew Yang was. If you look back at my videos, I got videos probably out about him before a lot of people, and that's because of my passion project. And Uh, I wasn't aware of the African descendants of slaves and I had already latched on to Andrew Yang because what he was proposing was so parallel to my passion project. It just was such a harmony that I had to support Andrew Yang. Now in saying that, I still support Andrew Yang. You know, it's this campaign's built up. I think this is going to be better for the world. I think it's gotta be better for America. And the reality of it is, uh, I can't separate the issues. I, I'm able to separate universal basic income from reparations, and I understand the African descendants of slaves have drew the line in the sand, and they got to stand their ground. Because I'm telling you, once you start to not stand your ground, guys, you're going to— people gonna look for you to move it all the time. They're going to say, well, you did it with this guy. You did it with that guy. So I, you know, I can't in good conscience, you know, I can only support that, but I can only speak for myself and say that this is, to me, this is more than an election. This is symbolic. So I'm kind of stuck in this, in this kind of situation with this. And at the end of all my videos, I tell everybody that, you know, I believe Andrew Yang is going to win, but if he doesn't win, that you all should be, um, put— keeping this movement going. And one way you could do this by joining my platform, my program that looks to provide the basic rights of UBI to every citizen of the earth. Uh, but I separate that issue and I try to be clear. And that's what I'm trying to explain to the people who comment on the section, to my subscribers, that please don't try to oversimplify this $1,000 per month as reparations for African American people. We have to separate those issues. That, that's not going to help, and it doesn't do any justice. Uh, it is an issue that's dealing with automation in America and making America better. But this is a wrong that was done to a group of people that is going to have to be corrected at some point, just like many other groups had been, uh, through atrocious, uh, events, and, and they were able to gain settlements and lawsuits. Now, as far as what that should be, because that comes up a lot, I don't know. I'm not able to make that. I have proposed some things. I could tell you some stuff I I proposed, but it's not up to me. And, uh, I can understand if it wasn't accepted or even in the ballpark, because what I propose is I've come up with ideas like if Andrew Yang were to award everybody the $1,000 per month, that then I would like to see reparations monuments in every state and federal building across the country. and monuments as remembrance to a wrong that was done that we shouldn't do again. Because generally what it goes to is, oh, this is too big of a problem, we can't pay for it, and so we're not going to even do anything about it. But let's think back to my analogy, that court case with property damage. Can you imagine your property being destroyed and you go into a court system and the court system saying something to the effect of, well, you know what, it was so much property damage done, we're just gonna have to throw this entire thing out of court. You see what I'm saying? Like, uh, we're not gonna even try to fix this. No, that's not what happens in a court hearing. What they do is, do you— whether you could pay that settlement or not, it's awarded, and they're gonna take whatever they can and make payments to that party. And that what you can't pay is going to still be owed. That's generally how court cases go down. So you have to understand the position of the African descendants of slaves and just Black voters who are now wanting to know, is the reparations part of this campaign and these campaigns? And it's been emphasized now over the election circuit. So it's not going away. People, you know, even the people who don't plan to do anything about it, they're going to use it in the polls, right? And that's what I try to tell African descendants of slaves as well, and, you know, Black American voters, is that, you know, that, uh, they can make promises, but if there's not concrete, you know, but the idea that somebody's talking about and going to do something about it, that has value as well. So that's why you can't push it under the rug. But I want to make that comment out there. I want to clarify my position, and I want to say this is going to have to be something done in the conscience of the Black American voter what he thinks is right. I'm not going to tell you to go out and vote for Andrew Yang. Um, you know, I, I'm— I can only say, and I'll give this story and, and I'll wrap it up. I can only say I heard the story about this guy who's talking about— he, he was out with his son and, uh, his son wanted a drink of of a beverage or soda. He called it soda water. And he said that his son couldn't even— he couldn't even afford to buy his son a bottle of soda water when they were out. And so what I want to say to that is that with something like UBI, the father not being able to buy his son an unhealthy beverage, that, you know, that wasn't even so much the problem. The problem was, what was his— what, how did he value himself after that, right? With just the idea of not being able to do that, right? So it was less about maybe him just buying him a soda, being able to buy him a soda in public, or, you know, something to that effect. It was his value system of, look at me, I can't even afford to buy my son a soda. So if, if, if he had universal basic income, he would be able to afford to buy his kid a drink, right? But it'll be more than that. Psychologically, his value system of his reflection back on himself would be a positive, positive one, right? And with a positive attitude, psychologically, it would, it would make his— make him value himself a great deal higher, and it will make him want to perhaps do greater things, right? Uh, and so that's kind of how I look at it, right? That extra $1,000 per month in African American people's pockets, right? Especially that are living in poverty or below the poverty line, a variety of things. Um, you know what, as many have said in, in the comments section that I've spoken with, it's not about $1,000 per month. It's about the fact that the country cared enough for its citizens to make sure they were okay. And it's the value system and it's what that positive reinforcement does mentally to you as you go forward in life. Parallelly contrast that to if you didn't have it and you're this father who can't buy his, his kid a drink of soda water, he can't do anything about it. He may slip into a deep depression and there's not a whole great deal he can do about that, right, uh, at that point in time. So the African-American voter has to decide if— is this something they could separate issues on? right? Is, is this something that they can go, well, we can get this and we can still pursue reparations? Or do you take my oil advice and go, there's no more kicking the can down the road. If we walk away with nothing, we've made our stand and we're proud of that and we're going to do that. Or do you, or do you go, well, maybe the greater good is to go this way? You have to decide that. I can't tell the African American voter to do that, but I can tell all the Andrew Yang supporters this, that that African American vote is going to be very important, I think, um, in this election, right? Andrew Yang really needs that vote. So I hope he gets it, but it's just some strange people leading the polls right now. You know, we got, we got, uh, Buttigieg and, uh, you know, I talked about him. Some people like him. I don't think he's a bad fellow, but I, you know, I, I don't see him as a president, as our president. Buttigieg, you got Biden, you got, you know, so it's just a lot of more of the same stuff. You got Bernie Sanders. Uh, interesting enough, the— I got the news about Bernie Sanders and Ann Coulter from the Jimmy Dore channel that I talk about a lot. Uh, and he does an interesting show. But I thought it was— I thought it was important or interesting that Jimmy Dore had mentioned that, um, that, uh, you know, after he talked about Bernie Sanders and then I could tell he wasn't very happy about— because anytime somebody like Ann Coulter says she'll vote for, uh, a liberal, uh, Democrat, people get nervous because she's not supposed to say that, right? And so it was because of his work with Senator Grassley on that, on that immigration bill, right? And so that, I think that turned Jimmy Dore off. But, you know, but also it was interesting that Jimmy Dore finally, he gave some stats I wasn't even aware of, and I just thought it was interesting to throw in here real quick. He said that in California takes $70,000 to imprison somebody you could just pay them $50,000 a year not to commit crimes. He said that. That was so kind of interesting to how UBI— the one of the UBI arguments was. And it's sadly, oddly true, but it is true that economics, uh, will reduce, I believe, crime rates, you know, either directly or indirectly. And I just think that that's— we're gonna see that as a factual, uh, uh, thing going for. But imagine that, $70,000, you know, for all the money that people talk about saving in universal basic income, and these people out committing crimes, um, $70,000 per inmate. That is just insane, guys. Just think about that. It's like sending somebody to college, sending them to college every year. Insane. But that's all I wanted to say on this, guys. Let me know your thoughts on this, um, uh, in the comments section. And, um, as always, and you know, my quick spill again, you guys know I'm doing my own UBI program for the world, uh, blockchain technology. The link will be in the description. We feel this is a right for every citizen of the world. Join this, especially if you're not, uh, in America but you support Andrew Yang, you're watching the videos like many of you guys are rooting for us, and we very much appreciate that. Uh, you can actively at least participate in our program, you know, although you're not an American citizen, you can't participate in, uh, our elections. But hey, you can kind of through proxy do it that way, I guess. But that's all I want to say in this video, guys. If you like content like this, don't forget to like, subscribe, and until next time.
