Is he the next one out or the next big thing?

I'm more worried about him becoming the nominee than anyone else at this point. He has the most potential to sway independents and swing voters.

A Trump vs Yang general election is just way too unpredictable.

Yang is at least interesting. The rest don’t inspire much excitement.

Yang and Gabbard would be Trump's strongest opponents but have no chance getting to the Dem nomination

He's polling around 2%. He won't be the nominee.

No, but by taxing Amazon,Facebook, Google. Which I feel will attract many voters. People feel left behind by these companies

The brunt of his campaign is pushing a UBI, which is the ultimate in government giveaways.

There are approximately 330M people in the US. During the 2010 census it was found that 24% of the population was under 18.

76% of 330M = 250M (rounding for easy math) adults who would qualify for Yang's UBI.

250M * $1,000 per month = $250B per month. $250B * 12 months = $3T per year.

That is economic insanity.

I can't think of a single candidate for POTUS in my lifetime who was polling in single digits in September the year prior to the election who ended up the nominee of his/her party.

I'm sure I could be missing someone, but I doubt it.

ETA: Turns out I was forgetting someone - Carter in '76.

China is trying to undermine our economy, and you think we're going to elect one as our next leader?
