Winning for America. And winning for America\u2019s future.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And our conversation with our guest in this episode is a major step toward doing that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time to bring independents together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time for Americans to unite too.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And in this episode, you\u2019re finally gonna hear from Andrew Yang (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AndrewYang\">@AndrewYang<\/a>). Candidate for President. Candidate for Mayor. Patriot, activist and father. And now, co-founder of the Forward party.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re gonna hear his plan for independents. And how he\u2019s working to meet this moment. And in the weeks and months to come, you&#8217;ll hear from other top and rising leaders about what they\u2019re doing to meet this moment\u2013and specifically to unite and empower independents to protect, defend and improve our country.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But before we get to Andrew\u2019s plan, it\u2019s time for you to hear about mine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As we\u2019ve long discussed on this show, in this moment, we are at war. We are at war against enemies foreign and domestic. And we are at war for the soul of America. And if you want to win a war, you need a war plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Like every plan, it will change. That\u2019s good design. It\u2019s always evolving in response to changes on the ground. As the only saying goes, no plan will survive enemy contact. So I expect it to evolve. I expect it to adapt, improvise and overcome. It\u2019s far from perfect. But I also learned we can\u2019t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. And with stakes as high as they are in America right now, we don\u2019t have any more time to waste. So it\u2019s time to stop revising and editing and start executing. And in some ways, we already have been.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Independent Americans is not just a podcast. Not just a brand. It\u2019s a movement. And every good movement needs a plan. And now, I\u2019m ready to finally share with you mine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve talked about it a bit for the last few months. And teased a few pieces. And now, as the election is finally over, the year is almost at an end, and we reach Episode 200, my early Christmas gift to everyone is my strategy. My plan. My plan to build an Independent political infrastructure to save America.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s called <a href=\"http:\/\/operationindependents.com\/\">Operation Independents<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Every episode of Independent Americans hosted by author, activist and social entrepreneur Paul Rieckhoff (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulRieckhoff\">@PaulRieckhoff<\/a>) is the truth beyond the headlines\u2013and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.
