 Well, it's time for another patreon poll this week. I asked patrons of the humanist report who their second choice is in 2020 Now this is something that I was really Curious to find out this doesn't matter too much because we're all going to be voting for our first choice But this is something that I think I've been relatively conflicted with throughout the course of the 2020 primary you know in the beginning I kind of wavered back and forth between Tulsi Gabbard and Elizabeth Warren although as the primary progressed I realized that it's okay To not have a second choice like I really don't have a second choice I think that Bernie Sanders is my first second third fourth fifth and so on choice Because nobody else really meets my criteria like I don't want a reformer. I want a revolutionary I want a paradigm shift in this country and Bernie is the only person I believe will actually bring about real change. So, you know, I'm not going to fault myself for not picking, you know A third fourth fifth choice, you know, I'll admit now that a distant distant second for me Really my 99th Choice with Bernie being one through 98 would be Elizabeth Warren, but I'm gonna fight for Bernie Sanders Until you know, he's out of this because I absolutely believe that he's what we need at this point in time But with that being said, I asked you guys what you thought and Your responses were very interesting So in first place The second choice for most of you with 41 votes is also Elizabeth Warren So you agree with me there and then predictably Tulsi Gabbard comes in second with 27 votes Andrew Yang with two votes Marianne Williamson with one vote and then we have Bernie Sanders with 11 votes meaning that to these people either Elizabeth Warren or Tulsi Gabbard are their first choice and then we have other with four votes Now, let's see what you guys say about this Naomi the born owl says as Nina says, there's only one There's only one person who's going to fight for us. There's only one person that will make our lives better That's Bernie Jolin McCulley says I don't trust Warren Tulsi showed integrity in 2016 when she stepped down when she saw the DNC cheating the democratic process while Warren was bowing down To the Queen behind closed doors hoping for a VP position Tulsi would shiv Trump in a debate While Trump will be tap dancing on Pocahontas's political grave Tulsi also appeals to more independence and Republicans while Warren's key support is white upper-class Harvard elites If the goal is to beat Trump as the DNC and party leadership claims then there is only Bernie or Tulsi Christopher says Warren is not as good as Sanders on a lot of issues But she does support Medicare for all and a lot of more progressive issues that are important to me I do have a problem with what she said in 2016 if she had listened to Bernie back then she might be president today But just on an issue-by-issue basis. She is a great second choice I do hope she drops out soon and endorses Bernie though Jay Miller says Tulsi Gabbard has done multiple interviews on fucking Breitbart Breitbart is stormfront for people who aren't as open about the fact that they are Nazis She could do better than Breitbart Dave Rubin and even Fox News are better than Breitbart She's explicitly going after white supremacist support and consequentially has taken any remaining sympathy I may have left for her and flushed it She went on there this time to fearmonger and pandered to the alt-right about immigration By having said that my second choice is holding my nose for Elizabeth Warren and is Marianne Williamson Even still running. I thought she dropped out Patrick number one Bernie number two Bernie Charles Washington Warren is the only candidate who can make any claim to being a burning light candidate albeit laughably so Additionally, she is the only serious candidate who supports a federal jobs guarantee I think the importance of a federal jobs guarantee is understated I failed to see how one can claim to be serious about combating climate change without having a centralized effort to do so Now that the stakes have escalated Periodlessly high market forces have failed to make the proper investments into green energy Because it is more profitable along with less risky for them to simply invest in already established markets In fact, this entire crisis is their fault to begin with Considering they set on the information of profit-driven industrial productions effect on climate for decades without saying a word Borgon says I voted other because a third-party candidate would probably be my go-to should Bernie not get the nomination I have been so thoroughly disappointed with Dems for so long that Bernie rather than being some wacko extremist pick To me represents a concession that a compromise and a dose of socialism Can reform what seems to be a system nearly beyond repair Bernie's my compromise candidate Otherwise, I see next to nothing in the Dems worth supporting He brought me into the dem fold very tenuously from third parties Slash not voting at all in prior elections and I may very well leave that fold if he doesn't get the nomination So there you have it a couple of different takes as to why they are choosing, you know Tulsi or Elizabeth Warren or none as their second choice. And yeah, this is really important feedback. I'm good insight Thank you all so much for sharing and as usual I'm gonna turn this to the audience who's watching this on YouTube Who is your second choice and why I look forward to hearing from you heard from me You heard from patrons of the human support, but sound off in the comments Who's your second choice if you even have one because I think it's perfectly acceptable to say It's Bernie Bernie's my number one my number two my number three my number four I think that's perfectly reasonable because he really is a once-in-a-lifetime candidate who is unlike everyone else Who's running so let me know what you think
