Aug 30, 2024
Andrew Yang, founder of the Forward Party and former presidential candidate, argues for the necessity of a third party to counteract political polarization. He believes it offers non-partisan solutions and better represents diverse ideologies. In contrast, Daniel DiSalvo, a political science professor at CUNY, defends the stability of the two-party system as essential for simplifying voting decisions. They debate the risks of authoritarianism, the impact of electoral reforms like ranked choice voting, and hope for reform in America’s political landscape.
