Yang is out, Bernie is win.

Andrew Yang, an entrepreneur who campaigned on providing every American adult a monthly check for $1,000, ended his 2020 presidential bid after a disappointing showing in the New Hampshire primary.

“I am the math guy, and it’s clear from the numbers we’re not going to win this campaign,” he told his supporters inside a ballroom.

“So tonight I’m announcing that I am suspending my campaign.”

Yang said he did not want to continue accepting donations for \"a race we will not win.\"

“We still love you, Andrew!” someone in the crowd yelled, garnering cheers and chants of \"Yang!\"

“Thank you so much, New Hampshire—I love you, too,” Yang responded. “Being your candidate has been the privilege of my life.”

Elsewhere in the Granite State, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont celebrated his primary victory.

\"Let me say tonight, that this victory here is the beginning of the end for Donald Trump,\" Sanders told his crowd of supporters.

\"Tonight I want to take my opportunity to express my appreciation and respect for all of the candidates we ran against: Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, and what I can tell you, with absolute certainty and I know I speak for every one of the Democratic candidates is that no matter who wins, and we certainly hope it’s going to be us, we are going to unite together and we are going to defeat the most dangerous president in modern history,\" Sanders told the crowd.

Buttigieg finished second and Klobuchar third, with Warren and Biden well behind.

I am old school Republican in regard to equality (not democratic or like the liberal of today, as they are as racist and sexist today as they ever were; changing their tactics only and none of their values... Rather to the likenesses of President Lincoln and President Grant.) I don't think that any individual group has the right to determine the value of another individual or group; which is the reason I am against abortion where a single woman can decide alone the value of the life growing within her womb. I don't believe the federal government should have any real say on this issue, I believe that individual states should look into whether or not abortion fits within the state's values. I am more modern conservative in that way; I believe the federal government should set guidelines for the states to govern themselves under, and not much more than that. I'm less socially conservative on other topics: I don't care about same sex marriage, marry whomever you want, just make sure it's to the right person and actually work through difficult times, don't just go for a convenient divorce... and people can identify as whatever they want, just don't ask for special privileges regarding these social issues... No special treatment for anyone based on age, sex, race, ethnicity, sexual preference, religion, class, etc. because that is also racist, sexist, etc. We are all created equal, with \"created\" being the operative word. Jesus said that a man is not defiled by the things a man puts into his body but by what comes out of his heart. We are not made different by the color of our skin, the food we eat, the music we listen to, the television we watch, but by our words and actions. See the handbook on Conservative Republicanism for all other values.","twitter_id":null,"facebook_id":null,"youtube_id":null,"google_plus_id":null,"website":null,"slug":"just.dave","issue_count":8,"is_following":null,"influence_score":1590,"influence_level":30,"follower_count":62,"following_count":96,"position_count":219,"id":"90odJdxE","partner_id":null},{"name":"Jason","vote_count":0,"photos":{"large":"https://assets.causes.com/user/avatar/default-with-hat.png","small":"https://assets.causes.com/user/avatar/default-with-hat.png","tiny":"https://assets.causes.com/user/avatar/default-with-hat.png"},"links":{"following":"/api/users/WgY1y2or/following","followers":"/api/users/WgY1y2or/followers"},"about_me":null,"twitter_id":null,"facebook_id":null,"youtube_id":null,"google_plus_id":null,"website":null,"slug":null,"issue_count":0,"is_following":null,"influence_score":0,"influence_level":0,"follower_count":0,"following_count":0,"position_count":0,"id":"WgY1y2or","partner_id":null}],"article_comment":{"flagged":false,"id":1194909,"body":"Bernie is way too far left to beat Trump and mayor Pete is too green and has a race problem.
