For the past several months, I’ve witnessed the rise of the most powerful political force I’ve seen in my lifetime–Vivek Ramaswamy. I’m not saying this lightly.
Do you know who this guy is? Have you been paying attention?
If you wonder at all if this guy is the real deal, look no further than the media–they’re freaking out when they interview him! You have to ask yourself why that is.
I have seen so many examples of Vivek shredding the media. Many of these exchanges are now not surprisingly hard to find on YouTube. They appear quickly, but later seem to be hard to easily search. But since it’s fresh, and perhaps the best example of Vivek outclassing a shrill “reporter” yet, I’m going to use this interchange as an example.
As someone who has grown to love reaction videos, I’m going to show you three examples of reaction videos dealing with Vivek’s latest takedown of a reporter. Two of these videos were made by blacks. The reason I point this out is because I have watched the black community wake up in regards to how they in particular have been played by the media, in the hopes of dividing America by race (and of course other factors). It looks like the jig is maybe-not-so-slowly unravelling!
In this first reaction, Brandon Tatum (The Officer Tatum YouTube channel) is an ex-police officer who hosts a channel commenting on race and law-enforcement issues. He’s very popular and for good reason–he’s a natural communicator with a ton of common sense. He has played Vivek media smackdown videos on a regular basis, and has gone from a skeptic to someone with who has big respect for Vivek…
The second reaction is from Megyn Kelly, an ex-Fox News host-turned podcaster who traditionally hasn’t been one of my favorites and who has been a critic of Vivek, yet clearly sees the value in what he has done here. Here she reacts to the Vivek Media smackdown with Jesse Kelly, another podcaster who doesn’t like Vivek at all but still has to give credit where credit is due…
The third reaction video is from the Cartier Family channel on YouTube. These are four young black guys–I think ALL of whom used to be liberal–who have had their minds opened by Trump, Brandon Tatum, and other conservative figures. These guys recently snagged an interview with Vivek, and regularly do reaction videos of his smackdowns. The do talk quite a bit about related topics during the videos, but I like them–they’re real, and I think because of their age group, where they come from (politically/culturally), and what they are showing, they are having a growing major impact on young black Americans, young Americans in general, and even just people from any age group, racial group, or nation...
I know a lot of older folks like me shy away from the Internet for obvious reasons–because Hell has used this medium to spread its evil everywhere. But I firmly believe that older people who want to get involve in the cultural, political, and spiritual battle for the soul of America and the world need to be here.
Rumble is a great free-speech platform that I highly recommend, but as much as I despise the heavy censorship of YouTube, it is still a place where some version of free speech not only lives–but because of the cross-section of people one can reach here, it feels less like an “echo chamber” than platforms like Rumble (no disrespect, Rumble, I love you, and the world NEEDS you!).
BTW, this is post is not a political endorsement per see of Vivek, though if I had to choose today who I’d want to see as our next President, I think I just might pick him–he is the most potent political force I’ve seen in my lifetime, and mind you, I voted enthusiastically for President Trump both times, and my favorite President ever was the late, great Ronald Reagan (here’s what many of us think was his greatest speech ever, “A Time For Choosing”…
Reagan had a spirit that changed the world, along with the legendary Russian author Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and Pope John Paul. But putting the whole package together including Vivek’s willingness to go anywhere and take on the media with virtuoso communicating skills–no disrespect to Reagan (“The Great Communicator”) but Vivek is the greatest political communicator I’ve ever seen. And what he communicates is hard truth.
I have met some people–mostly women–who don’t like Vivek, saying they don’t like the way he communicates (a similar complaint that is made against Trump)–and from their perspective, I can see that they think he’s a flame-thrower or smart-aleck (wise guy) who will divide people. Yes, Vivek does turn off a fairly small (in my opinion) segment of the American public, career politicians, Lefties, and of course the “mainstream” media, but on balance I believe he will UNITE a much greater percentage of Americans–particularly conservatives, independents, a small but statistically significant (in an election) segment of Democrats, young people (Vivek is just thirty-eight and speaks the language and has the gonads the young can relate to), and other races besides whites–which in this racial powder keg environment–may be the most important uniting point of all.
All that said, Republican primary voters need to sort all of this out, and realize that perhaps the greatest threat to defeating a good America-first candidate in the coming election may come from inside the Republican Party in the form of Nikki Haley, as Vivek himself recently pointed out to Tucker Carlson….
As Nikki Haley is the essentially the “chosen” establishment candidate, the supporters of America-first candidates like Trump, Vivek, and arguably Gov. Ron DeSantis need to coalesce fairly soon around ONE candidate who can win, and so far they have done so by forming a pack around Trump, even though most Trump supporters LOVE Vivek too. It will be interesting…
Admittedly, in the past, I have gotten excited over past conservative/Republican “longshot” candidates like Pat Buchanan…
…and Alan Keyes…
…and non-candidates like Lt. Col. Oliver North (who became famous for standing up boldly during the Iran-Contra hearings that threatened to sink Ronald Reagan’s Presidency). Watch the compelling testimony he gives here which riveted a nation…
…and my favorite Supreme Court Justice–Clarence Thomas–who delivered a classic, fiery speech defending his honor when a creep named Sen. Joseph Biden and other slime balls tried to take down his nomination through spurious allegations from an old working associate of Justice Thomas named Anita Hill (the darling of “women’s libbers”–as we used to call them). This is a MUST WATCH!…
All of these great men contributed mightily to preserving the America we love. All were–in my opinion–essential to the continuation of this country remaining a beacon among nations.
…But I believe Vivek has already–and God willing will continue to–help wake the American People up to the real enemy of this country–the race-baiting American Media (with some great exceptions, of course), who work feverishly day and night to try to turn Americans against each other. If Vivek accomplishes this feat alone, he will have served his country admirably, not to mention historically. Never forget that America and the world are at a historic crossroads.
Whether he becomes the next President of the United States, or just helps usher in the right man, Vivek Ramaswamy will have done his job–the job his Creator has chosen him to do!

We are all aware that the Constitution, by law, protects our freedom of religion in America.
When JFK ran for president he was a real concern of main stream America, he was Catholic. Not to disregard the religiosity of said faith, but for the power of the Catholic Church they feared..
Our country is traditionally founded on the King James Bible, one of Christion practice for hundreds of years. Christianity is thought of as the Major leading Faith in America, bar none- because it is directly of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
While other faiths recognize Jesus in different stations with great respect, they do not accept Him as the Son of God, let alone the Savior of the world.
It is for this very reason and idea that the citizens of our great Nation wrestles’ in giving over the power of the world’s most powerful country to another faith that our Founding Fathers recognized as their only successful reasoning to have been blessed and guided by their Lord in Heaven, to a blank slate land, and to carve out a government never to have been known to man. This design of Government is set out in three’s. Binding the structure of three,
ie; The Father, The Son and Holy Ghost. The DC land scape to be structured as a Cross. The three Houses, etc… Scripture written through out… on and within monuments, on and within buildings… tribute to our Lord, Jesus is everywhere within the District of Columbia.
It is for me, a bar too high to lend this history over to another sect, another’s religious’ faith that has been of another countries idea of religion for centuries. Our Nation is ONE of a Kind on earth. All other countries and religions on this planet can not prove the actual validity of a “God’s Son” to come to the rescue of mans salvation as in The Jesus Christ in the King James Bible. None. And, Archeology is proving the Bible is a Holy History Book of Prophesy everyday, in Truth.
Therefore, a man must have this deep and abiding Faith in the Christian understanding, to be of this humble and galvanized conviction will be my choice as a President of my America.
In my assessment of Vivek…he is a good man. But, too young and he has too much of the Eastern culture in his DNA. He is brilliant, quick, slow to anger, and is an impressive force to recon with. His wit matches no other.
Having said that, he, not as the Commander in Chief but as the Secretory of State. I’d love to watch him banter with the press in the press meeting room. SMAcK!!??BoOm!!
Do you think this position is not possible because Vivek is Alfa and desires to be #Uno?
So was Ben Carson, Super Surgeon, Mr Hud. He ran for first place, took a whoop’n from Trump and fortunately for him and our country, he settled for a very important mission in the Admin to serve at the pleasure of President Trump.
Speaking of President Trump, there is none other in view of our landscape that has proven loyalty, care of people, not of himself, but of Country.
We love him because, he loves us…as us, WE are the country. America First.
Trump is the man at this time in history. He is history.
Very well said, Brenda. Vivek as Secretary of State? I could see that!
Of course that is up to you, Ted. I will say that the U.S. Constitution has no religious test for holding public office, including the Presidency. From what I have seen, I believe this man would do as good a job or better than any current candidate for this office. That includes his moral outlook.
“Ramaswamy is a monotheistic Hindu.[19] According to relatives, he is fluent in Tamil[137][138] and understands (but does not speak) Malayalam.[138] He is a vegetarian[25][69] and wrote in 2020, “I believe it is wrong to kill sentient animals for culinary pleasure”.[139]”
Although he may have many good things to say, the fact that he does not believe in the Christian religion is enough for me not to vote for him.
