Good for you.
I always thought it would be cool to volunteer sometime. I am not much of an activist. I just like to talk about issues, which may be activism in and of itself -- I don't know.
Take a picture mate.

I recently slept in the ol' car far a while. It wasn't bad except for sitting all the time.
How do you sleep in the truck? In the back?

It'll be very cold. Be prepared for single digits or even lower. It can be unpredictable in the midwest but it is not unusual to have a few days below zero during winter. Good luck.

I've found that futon mattresses are the best for sleeping in truck beds, they aren't the most uniform of surfaces. Beyond that, lots of blankets, you almost can't have too many. It's better to be too warm than too cold.

Good for you, YangSupporter. Getting involved and whatnot. I hope it works out for you man.
The other day I saw a video of Andrew Yang standing in front of crouched adult men, and they had their mouths agape. He was enthusiastically spraying whipped cream from a can into their eager mouths. I don’t know what was going on there because there was nothing before that & nothing after it, so no context, but it looked like everyone was having a real good time.

When does the caucus start? I just checked, Feb 3rd. Dam, that's a lot of knocking on doors.

Harm no. Reeking of Freudian symbolism yes.

Good for you dude. I’ve got the urge to flee to Iowa for a few months a bunch of times now, but I got too much going on at home so I’m stuck phonebanking.
Make sure you create a thread and give us updates on how it goes! I’m curious to see how a state like Iowa responds to UBI.

Wow man. That's dedication. I commend you, really.
You're planning on sleeping outside in the winter so you can do this.
Just think. With a flick of the wrist, any of America's billionaires could write a check that would outmatch any of your efforts, no matter how many nights you slept outside in the winter. They'll lie to people through the TV so that when you show up at the door, they are so confused that everything you say will sound like Greek to them. The TV will likely even be blaring when they open the door. Maybe you'll hear them repeat the crap they just heard.
Look at Bloomberg. He bought himself higher polling averages than Andrew Yang. Think people are going to have to sleep out in the winter for him? No. Except they are against their will. All those homeless in America, because of a rigged system that funnels all the capital to people like him, go without so his class can hoard all the power.
Kind of makes you not wanna bother, maybe? It only makes sense. Why waste your time? That's why they do that. It's pretty effective at undermining one citizen one vote based democracy. Once you've lost that, (and you did a long time ago), legal means at change become impossible.
You're free to try though. That's your freedom. To flail about while your efforts crash on the rocks of the titanic, anti-democratic forces of the ruling class. That's what happened in the 2016 Democratic primary. The guy who brought us that information has now been driven insane by his foes, and he won't be up to anything like that again.
Im not suggesting you don't try. You should. If enough people did that, we would overcome.
Just telling ya. If you go through with this, at some point what I said above will occur to you.
Then you will become a revolutionary. Because that's all that's left.
