		anonporridge on Oct 6, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Andrew Yang Founds the Forward Party One advantage of Yang's platform (at least during his Presidential run) is that he was able to draw people from both sides of the aisle to his side. He's not quite a centrist as much as he's trying to break completely out of the left/right dichotomy and compile the best policy ideas that often neither party is supporting, which appeals to a lot of people.

I know Yang claims this, but is there any data actually confirming that this is the case?
