I Am Loving Vivek Ramaswamy
I’ll vote for whomever the Republicans nominate but I have to say, I have yet to find a single thing I disagree with Vivek Ramaswamy over. His mastery of the topics, his quick wit, his deep intellect, and his happy warrior style all suit me just fine.
So much energy! Watch him with Candace the other day. He will be the outsider who does what Trump could not.
I contributed to his campaign. And I urge you all to take a look.

That guy is good. And the name is fun to say.
Vivek is great. The Boomers need to give up the reins and enjoy the world they have created.
Yeah, I follow him on Twitter and recommend doing the same. And he was recently interviewed by Jordan Peterson. If I have time later, I will post the link.
And here it is:
He sounds good now, but the media has not yet begun to crush him.
Agreed.
Does this media still crush?
You forgot the most important part, the caption:
Well they try. Sometimes it works, depending on how convincing their lies are for some people.
Interesting. I like the idea of a governor who has already stood up to the hate machine and prevailed, but this guy is worth some attention.
Maybe it also depends on how well the good guys express the truth. Vivek does that part really well.
Yes, but so did Larry Elder. That didn’t stop him from becoming “the black face of white supremacy” and Vivek can be the brown face.
The intelligence of the advertising isn’t nearly as important as the stupidity of the audience.
But Elder was working in the most difficult of conditions in the most advanced Communist state in the Union.
That’s where they first try out new tactics, and then spread them out.
It frequently takes some time for the effects of state actions to settle in the economic conditions to the point where it hurts. I think California might be reaching that point in several areas, geographically and socio-economically.
Yes, if you get a hold of the link, offer it up here.
I found out about him thru a Scott Adams podcast someone sent my way.
If it is true that Vivek is against Affirmative Action, I will be for him.
Like Adams suggested, Trump would be called out for being racist the moment he suggested such.
But if Vivek does this proposal, that charge would be much more diluted.
If a significant number of people could be convinced that Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacy, it’s probably even easier to convince an even larger number of people that Vivek is its brown face.
Watch the Peterson interview. Vivek is sensational.
He’s pointing in the right direction:
I challenge every GOP candidate to join me in some easy commitments:
Being a Hindu is definitely not going to help, though.
They will pivot to “he wants to pull up the ladder behind him” as they do with Clarence Thomas. Easily foreseeable and can be prepared for.
But, he went to Catholic schools and paid attention, so he can talk the talk about Christianity.
Because he’ll lose the Muslim vote?
By all means, let’s continue to let the media pick our candidates. Or, you know, actually do something about crushing media influence.
I think that was his point.
Is this important? Why?
Is him being a Hindu important? Why?
I’m genuinely curious.
Yup.
I thought earlier of posting these two together but who wants to watch more youtube. But now they are apropos to compare and contrast.
When asked about the Trump indictment, listen to the impassioned fundamental argument on the threat to republican representative government by Ramaswamy…
… and compare with DeSantis’ comments focusing generally on Soros-funded prosecutors and crime rates.
Precisely.
I like Vivek but he would have more impact building the fiscal sound version of Blackrock
