  • PETE BUTTIGIEG ALL LEAD

  • PRESIDENT TRUMP IN A POTENTIAL

  • 2020 MATCHUP ANYWHERE FROM 6 TO

  • 10 PERCENTAGE POINTS.

  • ONE OF THE CANDIDATES

  • TRYING TO BREAK INTO THAT LEAD

  • GROUP IS ANDREW YANG.

  • HE IS CURRENTLY POLLING 3 % IN

  • THE NATIONAL POLLS.

  • HE WAS CAMPAIGNING TODAY IN NEW

  • HAMPSHIRE.

  • I SPOKE WITH HIM ONE-ON-ONE IN

  • CONCORD.

  • Reporter: BEFORE THIS RUN,

  • YOU WERE A CORPORATE LAWYER,

  • CEO OF A TEST PREP COMPANY AND

  • FOUNDED A PROGRAM CALLED

  • VENTURE FOR AMERICA TO HELP

  • ASPIRING ENTREPRENEURS.

  • WHY ARE YOU RUNNING FOR

  • PRESIDENT?

  • I'M RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT TO

  • WAKE PEOPLE UP TO THE FACT WE

  • ARE GOING THROUGH THE GREATEST

  • ECONOMIC CHANGE IN AMERICAN

  • HISTORY.

  • THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL

  • REVOLUTION, IT LED TO DONALD

  • TRUMP BEING OUR PRESIDENT, 4

  • MILLION MANUFACTURING JOBS IN

  • PENNSYLVANIA, OHIO, WISCONSIN.

  • WE ARE DOING THE SAME THING TO

  • MILLIONS OF RETAIL JOBS, CALL

  • CENTER JOBS, FAST FOOD JOBS,

  • TRUCK DRIVING JOBS AND ON AND

  • ON THROUGHOUT THE ECONOMY.

  • WE NEED TO ADJUST TO THAT AND

  • SOLVE THE PROBLEMS THEY GOT

  • DONALD TRUMP ELECTED.

  • YOUR SIGNATURE PROPOSAL IS

  • UNIVERSAL BASIC DIVIDEND, $1000

  • A MONTH FOR EVERYONE IN THE

  • U.S. IT WOULD COST ABOUT $4

  • TRILLION.

  • HOW DO YOU PAY FOR THAT?

  • IT IS A LITTLE BIT LESS THAN

  • THAT.

  • SO, THE WAY WE PAY FOR IT,

  • RIGHT NOW YOU HAVE AMAZON,

  • TRILLION DOLLAR TECH COMPANY

  • CLOSING 30 % OF AMERICA'S

  • STORES IN MALLS AND PAYING ZERO

  • DOLLARS IN TAXES.

  • IF WE GIVE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

  • A TINY FAIR SHARE OF EVERY

  • AMAZON SALE, GOOGLE SEARCH,

  • FACEBOOK ADD, WE WOULD GENERATE

  • HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS

  • IN NEW REVENUE THAT WOULD HELP

  • PAY FOR DIVIDEND.

  • A STUDY JUST CAME OUT THE DATA

  • IS NOW WORTH MORE THAN OIL.

  • HOW MUCH OF THAT VALUE DO WE SEE

  • ? NONE OF IT, OUR DATA GETS

  • SOLD AND RESOLD BY TECH

  • COMPANIES.

  • WE PUT THAT VALUE INTO OUR

  • HAND, WE CAN BUILD A TRICKLE UP

  • ECONOMY VERY QUICKLY.

  • Reporter: UNDER THIS

  • PROPOSAL, EVERYONE WOULD GET

  • $1000 A MONTH FROM THE

  • MILLIONAIRE TO THE WORKING MOM

  • MKING $40,000 A YEAR.

  • DOES IT MAKE MORE SENSE TO HAVE

  • IT AS A GRADUATED FREEDOM

  • DIVIDEND WHERE THE MOM MAKING

  • $40,000 YEAR GETS MORE THAN THE

  • MILLIONAIRE?

  • THERE'S ONE STATE THAT HAD A

  • DIVIDEND IN PLACE ALMOST 40

  • YEARS, EVERYONE IN THE STATE

  • GETS BETWEEN ONE TO $2000 A

  • YEAR, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, THAT

  • STATE IS ALASKA, THEY FUND IT

  • WITH OIL MONEY, EVERYONE GETS

  • IT FROM THE RICHEST ALASKAN TO

  • THE PORES.

  • IN OUR CASE, IF WE GIVE IT TO

  • EVERYONE, IT WILL BECOME

  • UNIVERSALLY POPULAR, THERE'S NO

  • STIGMA ATTACHED TO IT, I'M

  • GETTING IT AND YOU'RE NOT.

  • IT ALSO REMOVES ALL OF THE

  • ADMINISTRATION REPORTING

  • REQUIREMENTS, BECAUSE THERE'S

  • NO INCENTIVE TO UNDERREPORT

  • YOUR INCOME IF EVERYONE IS

  • GETTING IT.

  • Reporter: ISN'T GIVING BILL

  • GATES AN EXTRA THOUSAND DOLLARS

  • A MONTH A WASTE OF MONEY?

  • MY PLAN WOULD GET MILLIONS,

  • MAYBE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF

  • DOLLARS FROM THE BILL GATES OF

  • THE WORLD, WE SEND THEM $1000 A

  • MONTH TO REMIND THEM THEY ARE

  • AN AMERICAN, IT IS OVERALL A

  • WIN.

  • WEAK PEOPLE SO FOCUS ON THE

  • UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME, THEY

  • DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU STAND ON

  • OTHER MAJOR ISSUES IN 2020.

  • WHERE DO YOU STAND ON MEDICARE

  • FOR ALL?

  • I THINK WE NEED TO MOVE TO

  • MEDICARE FOR ALL SYSTEM, I

  • WOULD NOT GET RID OF PRIVATE

  • INSURANCE.

  • THEY HAVE TO OUTCOMPETE PRIVATE

  • INSURERS.

  • I THINK EVEN IF WE DO

  • EVERYTHING RIGHT, THERE WILL BE

  • A PRIVATE INSURANCE MARKET.

  • Reporter: YOU ARGUE FOR

  • LEGALIZING MARIJUANA NATIONALLY

  • AND DECRIMINALIZING SOME DRUGS.

  • IS THAT ALL DRUGS?

  • IT IS DECRIMINALIZING

  • ADDICTIVE OPIATES.

  • RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A PLATE IN

  • THE COUNTRY, EIGHT AMERICANS

  • ARE DYING EVERY HOUR OF OPIOID

  • OVERDOSES.

  • THE GOAL HAS TO BE TO TRY TO

  • BRING BOTH ABUSE AND OVERDOSE

  • RATES DOWN.

  • WHEN YOU LOOK AROUND THE WORLD,

  • WHEN THEY DECRIMINALIZED THESE

  • DRUGS FOR PERSONAL USE, IF YOUR

  • DEALER YOU GO TO JAIL.

  • IF YOU'RE AN ADDICT AND WE

  • CAUGHT YOU WITH THE DRUGS, WE

  • DON'T SEND YOU TO JAIL, WE SEND

  • YOU THE COUNSELING AND

  • TREATMENT.

  • THIS BRINGS DOWN OVERDOSE AND

  • ABUSE RATES OVERTIME.

  • Reporter: YOU KNOW OF FORMAL

  • FOREIGN-POLICY EXPERIENCE, WE

  • ARE AT ATOMIC, THE SITUATION IN

  • SYRIA, NORTH KOREA AND IRAN,

  • AMERICANS ARE TUNED INTO

  • FOREIGN-POLICY AT THE MOMENT,

  • HOW DO YOU PERSUADE VOTERS YOU

  • HAVE THE EXPERIENCE NECESSARY

  • AND YOU ARE PREPARED TO BE THE

  • COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF?

  • Reporter: FIRST, A LOT OF

  • THREATS WE ARE FACING INTO THE

  • 21st CENTURY WILL BE DIFFERENT

  • THAN THE THREATS WE FACED IN

  • THE LAST CENTURY.

  • THAT INCLUDES CYBER SECURITY,

  • ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE,

  • DRONES, LOOSE NUCLEAR MATERIAL,

  • CLIMATE CHANGE, NONSTATE

  • ACTORS.

  • WE NEED A COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF

  • THAT ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS THE

  • CHALLENGES OF THIS ERA.

  • I BELIEVE I CAN HELP CATCH US

  • UP BECAUSE RIGHT NOW OUR

  • GOVERNMENT IS DECADES BEHIND

  • THE CURVE ON ISSUES LIKE

  • TECHNOLOGY, CYBER SECURITY, AI

  • AND UNFORTUNATELY CLIMATE

  • CHANGE.

  • Reporter: YOU HAVE BEEN OPEN

  • ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.

  • I WANT TO GET TO THE PERSONAL

  • QUESTION, YOU HAVE A YOUNG SON

  • WITH AUTISM, TWO YOUNG SONS.

  • I WANT TO ASK YOUR QUESTION

  • THAT IS NOT ASKED OFTEN OF MALE

  • CANDIDATES, HOW DO YOU BALANCE

  • YOUR JOB AS A FATHER AND CARING

  • FOR YOUR KIDS AND WIFE WITH THE

  • CONSTANT TRAVEL AND STRESS OF

  • BEING A CANDIDATE FOR OFFICE,

  • HOW DO YOU BALANCE THAT?

  • OCCASIONALLY SOMEONE THINKS

  • ME ON THE TRAIL FOR RUNNING, I

  • SAY THANK MY WIFE, I'M VERY

  • FORTUNATE TO HAVE A SUPERWOMAN

  • AS A PARTNER WHO HAS BEEN

  • TAKING IT ON THE CHIN WHERE OUR

  • BOYS ARE CONCERNED.

  • I MISS THEM TERRIBLY WHEN I'M

  • ON THE ROAD, THEY UNFORTUNATELY

  • ARE GETTING USED TO ME NOT

  • BEING AROUND.

  • IT IS VERY HARD BUT WE HAVE A

  • LOT OF FAMILY MEMBERS SPENDING
