Andrew Yang: Let's Ditch Our Political Parties
Listen now
Description
Andrew Yang joins Rainn Wilson on Soul Boom to delve into America’s political quagmire, questioning the deeply entrenched two-party system and exploring whether systemic change can lead us toward a more united, fair society. They discuss alternative models for democracy, like ranked-choice voting and community-driven leadership, while dissecting how corporate money and partisan competition fuel divisive politics. Together, Rainn and Andrew contemplate an optimistic path forward, comparing today’s world to sci-fi futures and pondering how digital democracy and grassroots movements could reshape our government. Tune in as they tackle whether U.S. politics could be re-imagined for a fairer, inclusive America. Andrew Yang is a former presidential candidate, entrepreneur, and founder of the Forward Party, an initiative advocating for political reform and breaking through America’s two-party divide. With the 2024 election heating up, and candidates like Donald Trump and Kamala Harris at the center of the debate, Yang’s ideas offer a fresh perspective on achieving unity in a polarized nation.
