He's latched onto UBI, as have a lot of the technoraiti. He probably genuinely believes it is necessary (and it maybe), but that's a really easy bone to throw out to voters: "vote for me, I'm gonna give everyone money". Of course there's no way any unified vision of UBI is going to go through the political grinder, so the end result is anyone's guess. He'll probably lean on that and social issues and the fact that he's not as obviously ignorant as Trump. It might be enough to slip through political parties that are running people like Ted Cruz and Clinton as finalists.
