DU is lucky to have you and Sherman A1 here supporting Andrew. The way the #YangGang have conducted themselves throughout has won Andrew many friends.

EDIT: :blushes: sometimes I go over the top, but that's how I feel

I gotta say it's been a really nice experience so far - Yang's supporters get this kind of feedback A LOT and it makes you just want to do better

we all attribute it to the optimistic outlook and positivity that Yang demonstrates, it just follows naturally.

The tag #thankyouyang has a lot of heartwarming stuff about how many people have *already* had their lives transformed by just his Humanity message!

I like Yang, just haven't noticed that broad a spectrum of appeal.

It's one of the many reasons I think he is our strongest candidate to run against Trump. Yang draws some of Trump's support.

One older poll showed him within MOE of leading candidates with republicans and republican leaning independents.

More recent polling doesn't include him as an option

Anecdotal evidence (yes I know) from people on the ground, though - is plentiful.

And then there's all the people who have never been involved with politics before.
