Re: Vivek Ramaswamy and persecuted Christians

To get a better idea of what Ramaswamy stands for I went straight to the source. His campaign web site: https://www.vivek2024.com/ I was most definitely not impressed. It little more than a disorganized jumble of what are mostly completely unserious memes. Strange. I found many areas of information...

Re: Vivek Ramaswamy and persecuted Christians

By his own words, he doesn't support ANY of those rights or freedoms even though there are MANY people who find all of them contained within the Constitution. Nor does he even support the Constitution as written as he wants to repeal the 26th Amendment. I do not support the 17th Amendment. Does tha...

Re: Vivek Ramaswamy and persecuted Christians

Ramaswamy's phrase "The US Constitution is the strongest guarantor of freedoms in history" is a platitude because it says nothing about what Ramaswamy's positions are on anything. Or what he stands for. If one listens to his speeches, he easily explains it and also provides plans on his w...

Re: House Speaker

In 1880 after the first 100 years of the American existence: Much of that is before the industrial revolution, or before it really kicked in. Many rural people may have lived in poverty money wise, but had land and food aplenty for their family. I do think there is a place for federal spending, but...

I do not agree. Many of the videos he posts is him talking about such things and he does not take the "polling" positions many politicians take. Some of his positions may be loosing him votes, but he still stands by them.

Re: Vivek Ramaswamy and persecuted Christians

Of course Ramaswamy doesn't mention that he owns a fund called Strive Assent Management, which pushes for oil drilling at a site as long as it's profitable. He accuses other candidates of being "bought and paid for" by the "climate change hoax" but doesn't mention that he's maki...
