Past Third Party Candidates

[@NorthernerWill]

If you've seen this video before and are wondering why I'm uploading it again, I'm not gaslighting you (promise). I unlisted the previous video, and just added in some clarification to fix my mistakes. This is identical to the old version, just with 2 little pieces where I correct myself. I really didn't feel like putting these in alphabetical order. Sources: “Historical Presidential Election Map Timeline - 270towin.” 270toWin.com.

Lemay was chaotic

[@macncheesejayden]

Cool video, keep making 'em!

[@NorthernerWill]

Thank you!

[@jaguarmemez]

@@NorthernerWillhow did you make it? Like the software+hardware

[@NorthernerWill]

@@jaguarmemez I use Google Docs or the notes app on my phone to take notes while researching, write out my script on Google Docs, draw the images using Notability on this old iPad I have, take a bunch of screenshots and email them to myself, transfer the images to my Acer laptop, record the audio using Windows Voice Recorder and my HyperX Quadcast microphone, and put everything together with Clipchamp. I also use Sample to get music and sound effects. It's a Chrome extension that records the audio of whatever's playing on your computer. I could maybe make a video sometime demonstrating my process, if people are curious. I've made all of my videos this way.

heisenberg is that you?

[@realzugzwang7936]

This is pretty good stuff! More stats and info-heavy compared to the other stick man-animated channels. Subbed!

[@NorthernerWill]

Thank you!

[@warrenrhinerson6373]

Interestingly, enough with Millard Fillmore in the 1856 election, he was not even consulted when he got the nomination. He was actually out of the country of the time. He just kinda went with it anyway.

[@NorthernerWill]

I can't imagine coming back from vacation, and then being informed that you are, indeed, running for president.

[@warrenrhinerson6373]

@@NorthernerWill well at the time presidential campaigns worked very differently than they do today. It wouldn’t not be uncommon for a presidential candidate to actually not even campaign for the office even after getting the nomination for his party at the time your supporters did most of your campaigning for you. Also not unheard of for a presidential nominee to not even attend his parties convention. Abraham Lincoln, for instance, never attended the Republican convention in 1860 was made aware he got the nomination by telegraph.

Deja Vu

[@EnterSanman]

Is this a reupload or am I having the craziest Deja vu ever

[@EnterSanman]

Wait now I see the comment

[@owen_mania]

Swear to god this was uploaded before

[@JebBush-bf6tp]

1892 People's Party kinda based ngl

[@barca29np]

Super based.

[@DrewColpurs]

To clarify a couple points, having a gold standard isn't inherently better. It has pros and cons, but ultimately I think it's better to not have it. As for debt, national debt isn't a bad thing, in fact having a surplus is arguably worse because it means you could be investing that surplus into growing the economy and/or providing social services. As long as your nation's GDP outgrows the debt, your credit line is positive. Even China has an estimated $16 trillion debt. Even most businesses operate in some form of debt for the reason listed above (if you're not spending your money, you're kneecapping yourself).

[@QUAKERSATTACKS97]

Gold standard is objectively bad. Literally existed to bottleneck international trade and favor the pound sterling

[@BattleHerb]

@@QUAKERSATTACKS97 it isnt objetivly bad it does give your currency the perseption of value as people traditionally value gold...its just not a good idea once your economy becomes worth more then all the gold on the planet and undergoes transfomative fiscalisation

[@QUAKERSATTACKS97]

@@BattleHerb the Roman Empire didn’t have enough gold for its economy. Metallism is a relic from before bank notes were invented. In the 1800s, there were mass movements over bimetallism and paper money because gold was deflationary. All of this pro-gold nonsense came about in the 20th century. Gold was used because it was easy to mint. The “perceived value” of gold came from the fact that you could pay tax in it and that princes used it to pay their expenses. The “value” of money is that it is used as tender for debts. Gold coins were continuously debased throughout history and their value was rarely equivalent to the gold content. Minting is what gives it value.
