Andretti is an established racing team that has already proven ambitious and successful in other disciplines, and has demonstrated a clear and strong interest in F1 specifically. Gene Haas essentially got talked into starting his team, is by all accounts not that invested and mostly cares about the free advertising for his CNC machines. I'm sure Americans would prefer a team prepared to invest money into the sport instead of one struggling to even approach the budget cap and resorting to cut the pitwall to three people to save resources.
