Princeton Electoral Reform Researcher Running For Congress!

On this episode of the Andrew Yang Podcast, Sam Wang (also endorsed by Lawrence Lessig) joins Andrew to talk about fixing American democracy. A Princeton neuroscientist and electoral reform researcher, Sam has spent 20 years applying math and data to the problems plaguing our elections, and has now decided to run for Congress himself in New Jersey's 12th district. They dig into what the research shows about open primaries, ranked-choice voting, and gerrymandering reform, and why Sam thinks this race is winnable.

I Am Andrew Yang 2.0

I'm not as smart and professional as Andrew Yang, but I spent blood, sweat and tears volunteering for him in Iowa 2020. I was the guy out there knocking doors in the snow, phone-banking till my voice gave out, and yeah, I’m also “The Legend” who asked Bernie to support UBI at one of his town halls. Yang’s message about automation, the Freedom Dividend, and putting humanity first hit me like a freight train. I’ve been a political canvasser, consultant and manager since I was a teenager in 2008. I turn 37 in 2028 and I have officially filed FEC Form 1 & 2 to run for the Democratic Nomination for President.

This isn’t some vanity run. This is me saying: the fight never ended. We fought harder than any other campaign in 2020. We saw the future AI, automation, jobs disappearing, and we had the solution. The establishment buried it. Now the same problems are worse, and Washington is still full of lapdogs.

I’m running on Humanity First with a modern Economic Bill of Rights:

  • The right to a useful, well-paying job (until AI takes them away)
  • $1000/month Universal Basic Income
  • Protection from economic fears (unemployment, sickness, old age)
  • Freedom from monopolies and corporate greed
  • A decent home, medical care, good education
  • Plus: Uncap the House (restore real representation), ranked-choice voting, end the endless wars, legalize weed, codify Roe, protect our planet, and real digital ethics/data rights so Big Tech doesn’t own us.

I’m the actual Peace Candidate in 2028. No more tax dollars for endless foreign conflicts. We fix America First for Humanity First.

Yang Gang, this is our chance to finish what we started. I’m already planning trips to Iowa and New Hampshire this summer. I don’t have billionaire backers. Just grassroots energy, two good legs, and the same fire you all had in 2020.

If you’re still Yang Gang at heart. If you believe in UBI-style solutions, forward-thinking policy, and taking the Democratic Party back from consultants and donors then let’s do this together.

Drop a comment, share this, or hop on the site. The revolution is still on. #Jacob2028 #YangGangForever #HumanityFirst

Let’s rile it up. See you in Iowa. 🚀
