A new (and strong) alliance for Andrew Yang in the fight for the right to run for president of the United States.

In an attempt to win the Democratic primaries in order to definitely enter the race for the most coveted political office in the world (the US presidency), Andrew Yang will now be able to count on the help of a big name worldwide: Daniel Negreanu.

Going back a little while to explain the situation...

In an announcement made to his official Twitter account (more precisely, just after Halloween), contender Andrew Yang revealed that he supports the legalization of online poker in the US. But his support is not district-based, state-by-state (as it is currently regulated in the country), because what he advocates is the legalization of this activity on a federal level. ´

Following this statement, the Democratic party member was able to make a remarkable noise and thereby draw attention to the point of securing the support of leading names in the gaming industry. In the list of select names that act strongly in this online gaming market, the name of Canadian Daniel Negreanu stands out.

On December 15, KidPoker (to be held in Las Vegas) will host a special tournament with a very specific goal: to raise funds for the Yang campaign (which is the least visible candidate who is buying a real fight to win your party's primaries).

The championship will have a buy-in of $ 2,800 and those who participate will win several prizes, including the right to spend a day on a luxury yacht and have a totally exclusive VIP experience with DJ Steve Aoki. Among the professionals who have confirmed their presence at the event (and who are certainly catching the attention of many people, creating a chain that reinforces Yang's candidacy) are WSOP champions Antonio Esfandiari, Jeff Madsen and Dutch Boyd.

Negreanu has already been supporting Yang's candidacy for months, but only recently has he decided to dive in and, in fact, directly assist the candidate in this difficult mission (which is only just beginning). According to the GGPoker ambassador, the businessman "escapes the left-right political spectrum" and this is one of the characteristics that the next president of a nation as big and important as the United States needs to have to raise the country to a new level.

"If you are a poker person, Young is the most logical choice. He is just a practical person", says the Canadian who is managing to gather a considerable number of enthusiasts with some influence within this money-making market each year. Of course, if they all side with Yang, he will get extra fuel to run faster in this race and get a place among the finalists before the real political war begins.

It may seem ironic that Negreanu argues that Yang is a center candidate (one who does not usually fight over political extremes), the businessman was known for defending leftist guidelines as the minimum income of $ 1,000 for all Americans. This measure represents the latest type of universal basic income (UBI) that he wants to apply.

In addition, Yang truly believes that the value of money is being depreciated by the current US government and some situations need to change as soon as possible, such as (just to name a few important measures): enforcing strong restrictions on the sale of semi-automatic weapons, a deep and detailed reform of the current health care system in the country and breaking the resistance of more conservative investors (as well as the general population) on the issue of decentralized money.

This is my new contribution (it's the 3rd post) to @theycallmedan CAMPAIGN for a candidate who is being heavily repressed by mainstream media (and apparently has predefined letters in the political game) and has, primarily, a small group of alternative social media (however, all of them with great potential when it comes to making a big noise) to "pop up" his name everwhere.
