When using expressions of uncertainty the second clause of the statement is always in this verb tense?
Subjunctive, basically because the first clause is a "want" and then after is que.
What is a subjunctive verb?
The subjunctive mood form of a verb shows uncertainty, and is generally the opposite of the demonstrative mood. It is usually used after verbs that show a possible, but not certain outcome, such as "hope", "think", "wish", "want", and after words like "if".For example, in French: "je veux que tu partes" = "I want you to leave" (literally) "I want that you leave" (subjunctives in bold); as opposed to "tu pars"/"you leave".An antiquated example of this is the English "If I wereyou....", instead of the usual "I was". The idea, from the French example, is that I want you to leave, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you will, whereas the normal indicative form "tu pars" means you are leaving. It states a fact. The subjunctive is a possibility.Futher examples: "Je crois qu'il vienne avec nous" ("I think that he is coming with us"), where "croir" (believe/think) causes the verb "venir"(come) to be in the subjunctive.

Is 'autant que' meaning 'as much as' a subjunctive in french?
Yes, the conjunction autant que can mean "as much as" ("as far as") and may be followed by the subjunctive. The choice of the dependent verb as in the indicative or subjunctive depends upon the verb in question (savoir ["to know"] historically will be always in the subjunctive) and the type of certainty/uncertainty regarding the accuracy, predictability or reliability of the answer.
How do you say in french 'as much as you can' 'autant que tu peut' or 'autant que tu puisse' autant que requires the following verb in the subjonctive or not?
Autant que does not require a subjunctive after it. It is merely used as 'as much as'. Ex1: (using present and not subjunctive) Serre la vis autant que tu peux (tighten the screw as much as you can) ; Ex2: (using que + subjunctive) Je ne crois pas que tu puisses le serrer davantage (I don't believe you could tighten it any more) ; Ex3: (similar meaning, using present and no subjunctive) je ne crois pas que tu peux le faire : I don't believe you can do it. However, some fixed expressions use the subjunctive, as 'autant que je sache, ...' (as far as I know, ...). When in doubt, remember that French schoolchildren are taught to use the simplest alternative - here the present vs the subjunctive.
What is 'Que tu sois' when translated from French to English?
