  • Andrew Yang is a New York entrepreneur who's never held political office. Tonight he spoke one-on-one with King 5's

  • Natalie Swavy. She joins us now with what he had to say. It was right here at Gasworks Park tonight that Andrew

  • Yang said if elected his first priority as president would be to implement $1,000/month for every American adult.

  • Nobody knows who Andrew Yang is. You know he's not a politician. Complete underdog and

  • surprisingly actually, he's doing really well

  • He's a serious person. He's smart and he cares. The Tesla CEO tweeted his support for the venture capitalist on Saturday.

  • Yang, I'm Yang Gang.

  • Andrew Yang is polling above two senators and one governor. He's actually higher in the polls. He's like this outlier.

  • He's 44.

  • You know the guy with the cap that said MATH. You're raising issues that nobody else is talking about and you're looking at it from

  • a perspective that nobody else is really looking at him. He's gone viral in a whole range of different communities.

  • He's not saying the same kind of stuff that all the other candidates are saying and when he talks, it lands in part because he's saying things that are unique.

  • I think America is ready for a different kind of president who's more about substance than form. I'm not a politician.

  • I'm not someone who's been rattling around Washington for years or decades.

  • Most Americans don't think that career politicians are going to solve our problems and I think those problems are accelerating, getting more and more serious.

  • I'm also a parent and when you have kids, you also have a different perspective where you think,

  • Ok, how am I going to leave the country or the world in a condition that I'd be proud to leave to my kids,

  • and right now I'm not excited about the world we're leaving to our kids.

  • Our life expectancy has declined for the last three years due to a surge in drug overdoses and suicides. 78% of Americans

  • are living paycheck to paycheck.

  • 57% say they can't afford an unexpected $500 bill.

  • So, people are looking around and saying wait a minute. If GDP is at a record high, why do things feel so lousy?

  • How can you say an economy is healthy when our people are dying and you say,

  • Oh, someone else will take care of this. That almost never works.

  • So, I decided I could make a contribution.

  • So, I came to Washington, DC and I said, what are we gonna do? This official said to me, Andrew,

  • you're in the wrong town.

  • No one in this town is going to do anything about

  • the problems that you described because this town is a town of followers not leaders,

  • and the only way for us to do something about it is if we bring a wave crashing down on our heads.

  • I looked at that I thought these words: Challenge Fucking Accepted.

  • We talked about it like Donald Trump is the cause of all of our problems. He is not.

  • He is a symptom. He's a manifestation. We are going through the greatest economic transformation in our country's history.

  • I'm the son of immigrants myself, and if you go to a factory here in Michigan, you will not find wall-to-wall immigrants.

  • You will find wall-to-wall robots and machines. Immigrants are being scapegoated for issues

  • they have nothing to do with in our economy. What we did to the manufacturing jobs

  • we will now do

  • to the retail jobs, the call center jobs,

  • the fast food jobs, the truck driving jobs and on and on through the economy. Raise your hands in the crowd if you've seen stores closing

  • where you live?

  • It is not just you. Amazon is closing 30% of America's stores and malls and paying zero in taxes in a country

  • that is tearing itself apart with people turning on each other.

  • This is the mindset of scarcity that is sweeping our country.

  • We have to make big choices right now as a country. We have to start evolving and advancing in terms of the way

  • we see our economy and our role within it. What we have to do is focus on fixing the system

  • that is

  • distorting and

  • dehumanizing. I'm running for president, because I'm an American and I'm a parent and I can see the country

  • we will leave to our children and it is not something that I'm willing to accept.

  • The only thing that I'm worried about is that some total unknown that nobody ever heard of comes along.

  • So, he would be someone to watch, because there's still time for an outlier to kind of rise up. The guy just has

  • solution after solution after solution. There is something compelling about a guy that

  • just seems to have played by the rules and done everything right and believes in math and believes in science. You make sense to me and

  • you can fix stuff that's happening in the towns that I see every day

  • I'm going to listen to what you have to say. Pay attention to this kid's plan. I've done the math. It's not left.

  • It's not right. It's forward! That is how we're going to beat Donald Trump in 2020!

  • [crowd cheering]

  • The third big thing is how many of you all woke up this morning ... oh, what have we got?

  • Bald eagle! Eagle, it's a sign!

  • Andrew Yang [crowd chants repeatedly]

  • Almighty eagle! [crowd cheers]
