Andrew Yang talks goals of Forward Party

While many Americans plan to cast their vote for one of two major political parties, there are growing efforts to change the status quo. Andrew Yang, co-chair of the Forward Party, joins CBS News' Scott MacFarlane and Nikki Battiste on the push for alternatives to Democrats and Republicans.

A politically *moderate* party is not only a good idea, but a needed one. Both of the major parties are going down paths of extremism, and most people don't want that. Only when this extremism dies down will a moderate party be unnecessary...

Ranked Choice Voting, Nonpartisan Open Primaries, and Independent Redistricting. All three are very much needed. Hoping Forward helps make it happen. <3

I was surprised and happy to see fair and valid questions asked of Yang here. Good job.

I like Mr. Yang, he could help America, I do hope he has a better campaign next time 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

A majority of Americans are moderates and centrists. A viable third party is absolutely necessary now as the left and right fight tooth and nail.

I love this man. Nothing deters him from advocating for those of us who have felt politically homeless (and hopeless) for decades. We need a party that looks at problems pragmatically and thinks outside of the box(es) we are currently offered. I'm in!

The more I watch and listen to the Forward Party presentations, interviews, and pod casts, the more I like it.

I agree w Yang, no doubt he is best choice for Leading

I'm so glad that Alaska has non partisan primary and ranked choice voting. Nevada voters just got this passed too, hopefully they make it official. I want this too in my state of Pennsylvania!!

[BreakneckTrent]

He's such a smart and normal CEO type of guy.. Uses facts, cares about the people and knows how to build teams... I'd vote for him. 👀🤔

[syodios]

Will always vote for Yang. He was the only reason I started getting involved and I only give my vote to him. When he didnt make it in the democratic party I was out aswell.

[Msmoya]

Go Andrew Yang the positive disruptor!

[aldiximoable]

Keep Going.. Don’t Stop... and Never ever Give Up ...That is not an option for You

[rogermetzger]

If both questions were on the ballot in our precinct anytime soon, I'd vote for ranked choice voting and against open primaries. (The exception, of course, would be that anyone could vote in the primary races for "non-partisan" positions. But ranked choice voting would address that too.)

[jperin]

Ranked choice voting and open primaries! Yes!

[ThanosFrl]

Yang Gang all the way! Life commitment.

[D-Ry]

Only party I see as a somewhat average political party that I can side with 70% of the time

[phiksit]

The Platitude Party will do nothing but dilute the vote as long as gerrymandering and vote suppresion is allowed and big money donors can buy candidates.

[la_snakr]

Will Forward Party Dfund Polic like Democrats have done? If not, vote Democrat to Dfund Polic Natiowide!! 🌊💙

Ranked choice voting is a no-brainer and completely bi-partisan. It would be a HUGE step forward for our country.
