Andrew Yang - 6th Democratic Debate Analysis

Welcome back to the channel. I hope you all are having a great day. So we want to talk Andrew Yang today, the 6th Democrat debate, his performance, and want to get a little bit into that today. So Andrew, how'd he fare? I think many of us all know by now that Andrew gave one of his best debate performances to date. Um, Andrew has basically went through this evolution now where he has gotten quite comfortable with how to deal with this very uncomfortable in the beginning, uh, debate setting. Um, it didn't really, uh, lend itself to, to showing Andrew's best talents because of how it's designed. He's an information data guy, and these are very condensed, quick one-two answer, fast-moving settings, and they don't really lend themselves to really solving any real problems or getting out any real information. These debates are more or less seemingly to do with just your character and how you deal in situations emotionally and things like that. And so weren't working very well for Andrew because Andrew being that data-driven candidate who's going to really solve problems where these debates are set up and framed to be nothing more than reality TV shows, you know. And so that, that was very difficult for Andrew to— in the beginning, he had to kind of get started off kind of like a locomotive in the beginning, going very slow and speed up when he started to understand what was happening there. And, uh, he's now being able to do these quickfire answers, connect with the audience. Uh, and that's what they want, right? This is what really what these things are for. These, these debates, you can't solve America's problems in a sentence. And so they're designed to, uh, basically, you know, get him, uh, on the same wavelength with the American people. And to do that, that's less data. And that's more precise information, right? Uh, and so Andrew's learned how to do that and he's doing it very, very well now and it's worked out really good for him in this debate. And now that I think he really sees how to, how to go about this, I think he's only going to get better, uh, with this in the future. To kind of illustrate it, I believe it was, uh, was it Albert Einstein? There was a historical debate, popular debate, that went on between two figures. And the reality of the situation was that one of the persons debating information was totally incorrect, but it was presumed they won the debate because they got the crowd behind them and they were able to create enough emotional response from the audience and connection that the audience cheered loudly when they spoke, although the information was not correct, right? So the reality of the situation was the people didn't even actually win the debate, but because of the audience connection, because of the audience behind them, it was able to boost these people inaccurately into the future, and people thought they won the debate. Now this is kind of similar to what happens in this debate setting, right? You have to be able to connect with people. What Andrew was able to do was he was able to do that through several, several ways, several great questions that were the right questions that were sent his way. Everything from race relations to immigration. And he was able to do that very, very well. Now what I liked about Andrew, now these are some of the things that probably don't get brought up a lot or maybe little things I noticed that maybe some other people didn't notice. And one such thing was usually when Andrew has a time, an opportunity to speak, when he gets a question, when he's answering his questions, they go, "That's it, Mr. Yang, your time's up." And Andrew's very much, I could tell, has been one of those people who've went by the book with debates, debated in a very formal, practical way, a very, you know, very disciplined way. And so he's accustomed to, uh, then just stopping his point, uh, right on the mark, right? But when you're saying something important, when it's very important to the American people, what Americans are gonna, um, basically be attracted to is a person who had— who was willing to go, uh, basically, uh, go, go as long as it takes to put that important information out there. That sometimes you have to break— well, I don't want to say break the rules, but sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to, to, to get the American people where they want. And so on these little small things, sometimes that can come out in these things. And they— and, and the American people want to see that he's able to to do the right thing no matter what it takes in some cases. You know, now I'm not saying he should be breaking the rules and just being up there on that debate stage, uh, uh, you know, uh, just being disruptive or something like that or disorderly. But what I am saying is that, uh, sometimes if it's a very important point, you have to continue on with it. And what I saw Andrew Yang for the first time on that stage do was follow through with his points. If he went over a little bit, that was fine. Don't just stop on a dime when the moderators ask you to do it because nobody does that. Um, and, uh, you know, and deliver if it's very important, if it's that important to the American people by you going over that little extra time that shows American people that it was just that important for you to say it, to keep going. And of course you want to dial it back so that you're not just being rude and you're not just being seen in that light. The other thing I thought was very interesting, uh, to show the definite, uh, the definite changes in Andrew and, and to show that Andrew can be that, uh, the candidate we need him to be, to be, uh, you know, uh, you know, if he has to go out to somebody for or something like that, uh, he kind of threw in that little comment about the wine cave, uh, at the end when everybody was attacking Pete Buttigieg, right? So he went, like he was saying, if we had democracy dollars, you wouldn't have to go in the cave and shake the money trees, right? Because Pete Buttigieg was under a lot of fire. But the crazy thing about Pete Buttigieg is they should call Pete Buttigieg Sly Pete, right? What was that show? Wasn't it like a show Uh, something Pete, Sneaky Pete or something like that that used to come up because Pete Buttigieg is good. This guy is good. I don't know how he can survive. You know, this guy has survived and came back off of so many things. He had the big racial issue right in his hometown of South Bend. Now he's the mayor of this town. He has this big, uh, racial thing with, uh, with the cop, did the, um, with the, with the police officer, the police force. And, uh, he wasn't able to really do a good job there. He admitted, and he was able to kind of get a reprieve there and, uh, move on. And now he's, uh, you know, caught up in the billionaire select the next president scenario where he's in the wine cave. Now Pete was able to give a good answer to Elizabeth Warren about that, right? And for those of y'all who watched the debate, you know what Pete said. He talked about how he's the poorest candidate up there. He's glad to get a dollar any way he can under circumstances. But the reality of the situation is that shows that Pete Buttigieg is also vulnerable, right? This is the very thing that Donald Trump talked about when he was running, how so many candidates were bought and paid for, and they were probably under circumstances like Pete Buttigieg. But Pete Buttigieg still managed to wiggle out of that wine cave thing. He's just that good. But I don't, I don't, I do think that's going to stop his flow forward, you know, into the future. I, you know, it may not hurt his points right now, but I do think it's going to halt them going forward in the future. I don't think he's going to see a big rise. Uh, he is a part of the losers of the, uh, of the, uh, the sixth debate. And Andrew is obviously part of, part of winners, right? Um, doing an excellent job. Excellent, excellent job. I'm very proud of how far Andrew Yang, uh, has, you know, come, you know, throughout this, uh, his campaign. Um, so going forward into the future, I think Andrew just needs to keep doing what he's doing and, um, basically, uh, uh, you know, dial it up even a notch, right? Uh, get away from the numbers and data a little bit and just focus on relating to people, right? Tap into that emotional heartstring of people, right? When you talk about the Freedom Dividend and what it could do, that's another thing I like that he brought back the Freedom Dividend, the Democracy Dollars. Those are the things that got him here. Uh, keep, keep pushing that. In fact, The fact he's got so far with it, I believe this is the time to even double down on it. Every time he opens his mouth, it should be about the Freedom Dividend and just to remind people that that is how he got there, right? And they know at this point, he's not a one-trick pony from the vastness of where his campaign has went at this point. So I think going forward into the future, Uh, would love to see Andrew just keep relating to, uh, you know, he talks about how moronic men are, uh, and he was able to, I think, score some points with, uh, female women voters, which is obviously a good thing, right? That he could relate to everyone. He could relate to parents. Uh, we talked about, uh, his son who, who has autism, uh, and how it has become the new normal that we all have people in our families with special needs. And, and, and, and so, um, you know, there's a A lot of people who relate to Andrew Yang, and of course he spoke about, um, you know, the reason he's the only person of color on that stage is because people of color, minorities don't have the money to fund campaigns. They don't have the money to run into politics and be quite representative in politics to the point, uh, where, um, you know, they're able to change their surroundings. And when they do, they're probably bought and paid for by somebody. Uh, with Democracy Dollars and with, uh, um, you know, the Freedom Dividend, this may, you know, create that disposable income for people to send money to their candidates that represent them. Because it is a fact that how could poor people donate to candidates that represent them? Need to get money out of politics. Andrew did a good job of bringing that home. And, uh, just, just an excellent, excellent performance by Andrew. Tell me all what you think about the Andrew Yang debate. Also, don't forget our Universal Basic Income project over the blockchain.
