That is laughable given the author likely voted for the current vegetable in chief.

He can't be any worst than the idiots who THE SOB appointed, can you say Mayorka. Being a seasoned politician though is not the answer to who might be a good president. Just look at THE SOB who is leading the nation over a cliff and his supporters are happily behind him. It doesn't take a genius to know that he is inapt and corrupt. Even David can see that, I think, and he has shown that he's not that bright.

Speaking of David, have you noticed that his grammar has improved dramatically? Either he is taking English classes or someone else is writing his posts.

Vivek a sharp cookie and I like a lot of what he has to say---but he's not ready for the oval office just yet. He needs to understand the lay of the land better. For one thing---his foreign policy plans are abysmal---despite the fact I agree with most of his actual goals.

Im as an "America First" guy as there is out there---but you dont telegraph that your going to stab allies in the back and give in to opponents before the negotiations even begin---even if that is your intent. You lose any ability to negotiate when you give away the farm before the negotiations even start. Furthermore---stabbing allies in the back means the list of people willing to become your ally--or to continue being your ally----will rapidly become shorter and shorter. A mutually beneficial international relationship with our allies is good for America and should be the goal of any alliance from an America First standpoint. That said----even long term "mutually beneficial" relationships will have aspects or periods of time where they dont look particularly beneficial at that moment. Sticking by our side even in the tougher times is how WE judge OUR allies----and its pretty naive to think we wont be judged by our partners using the same criteria.

The thing that scares the right and the left is the same thing that scared them in 2016. An outsider coming in and blowing their narrative apart. Trump like Vivek is not/was not a politician. I fully believe politicians all play a game together to get to a goal they all truly want, people like Vivek aren't interested in continuing to play the game. They don't need the DC politics game to keep them afloat or to continue to make them rich.

Unfortunately, Vivek like Gary Johnson in 2016 is showing that maybe he's not as prepared as he should be when it comes to certain policies and that could be his undoing.

The ugly truth not many mention is lots of idiots probably wouldn't vote for him because they see him as a foreigner with a funny name. 'Muhrica

Why wouldn't he? He was born, raised and educated here was he not? That's an absolutely ignorant and bigoted statement.

Does everyone who was born, raised, and educated here understand how our government works?

Tommy Tuberville (who once told a bunch of college students to go to Hell) was born, raised, and educated here.

First of all, clarify what you mean by "understand how our government works".

Secondly, what does Tuberville have to do with your assertion that Ramaswamy doesn't understand how our government works? Stay on point.

RE: Vivek Ramaswamy
Ass is right there's people who don't understand how government works. He's wrong to assert it's just a Republican thing or even a majority Repubican thing. The sad thing is people are stupid - willfully ignorant - & it affects both sides in equal measures. People can also misspeak or be corrected if they are willing. People used to be have a better understanding of how govenrment works & it didn't take 16+ years of public schooling either. Why are our schools so garbage

I wasn’t asserting it was limited to Republicans. Tubby is my senator so I am more familiar with him. I’d be just as embarrassed if my congressman was the Democrat who thinks an island will tip over if we send more military troops there.

What part of Vivek’s comments about the VP’s role during election certification show he understands how it works? His 9/11 conspiracy theories also show a misguide understanding of reality.

As for Tuberville, I think the linked article says enough. What are the 3 branches of our government again coach?

You should ask THE SOB that same question. It seems that THE SOB thinks the DoJ is in the executive branch to do with them what they want/like, and the Gestapo is really fine with it.

What about his 911 comments is "misguided". What he said was the committee lied about the extent of Saudi involvement in 911 (which we all now know it did fail to reveal the full extent of Suadi involvement) and further investigation into documents and information the 911 Committee had might reveal other things the Committee didnt tell us. He didnt say it would or wouldnt reveal additional things they didnt tell us---he said it might. He's not saying he believes the CIA brought the towers down with demolition charges or something fringe like that.

Vivek is playing the same boogie man cards as Trump. No point in spending more time on this dude until his numbers go way up. But this also maybe his 15 mins on the 2024 campaign trail.
