Replying to @marwilliamson
You can't be "all in" when you're literally speaking at a convention for a 3rd party in 11 days. Smfh

I won't touch that bet with a 10 ft pole. She'll also get far to preachy for my liking. I'm turned off by all the god talk, couple it w/ the peace and love and I'm out. She totally lost me in debates when she said "we will defeat trump with love" when asked how she planned to win

First off I'm am theist, recovering catholic, and I trust no one who preaches about their God that much. Also, "win with love" is not a valid political strategy. As is evident by how fast she was out of the running.

I'm a former Jehovah's witness who is similarly traumatized and turned off by religious messaging, but I can't deny that it's extremely effective messaging for the crowd we need to win over.

I get what you're saying but if he message of "love" and "God" was well received by the people she wouldn't have been out of the race before it began.

I was very deep in resistance Twitter at the time. She got no votes directly because of her words, nothing more. Defeating trump with "love" made her a complete laughing stock in that circle. The vbnmw crowd shut her out.

Yang had no previous political experience either. And we’re living at a time when some different kinds of qualifications” are called for.

I'm a proud atheist and materialist and I was incredibly impressed by the emphasis @marwilliamson put on love as a political philosophy, because empathy has nothing to do with religion and politics is explicitly about the material condition of the people.

I can agree with this. The issue wasn't, in reality, your lack of experience. The platform got lost to the masses with the wording you presented in the debates, with what little time they allowed you. You lost so many people with that one line of "defeat trump with love".
