Better to ask how and where he made his money. You’ll find researching works just as good for you as it did for me

‘Just making a slur without any reason, is not convincing.’

gratuitous slurs have been raised to an art form on FR...

‘You are welcome to support your contentension with facts.’

where is the world is the fun in that...? Make us own up to our convictions...? scurrilous.

Me, too.

And I’ll scan a line or new of each and reply not having even read the full post.

His tennis match came right after he tossed Hawaii, Taiwan, and Israel in the rubbish heap.

Did you know that being born on U.S. Soil is NOT a requirement to be a NATURAL BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN? Or even a citizen of the USA, so much for anchor babies.

The only criteria is when both parents are legal American Citizens at the time of the birth of their child. IF BOTH parents ARE LEGAL U.S. Citizens, then the child CAN BE BORN ANYWHERE in the world or outer space and STILL be a legal natural born citizen of the United States.

I deserved that slap across my face.

No hard feelings when I was in the wrong.

Thanks.
From your source: “Paul & Daisy Soros Fellow Vivek Ramaswamy.”

For he’s a jolly good (Soros) fellow,
for he’s a jolly good fellow.
For he’s a jolly good fellow——
That only the voters can deny.

Since there are dishonest FReepers out to misinform the public, here’s Vivek disavowing any connection to Soros.

There are some common memes on Free Republic, that Vivek is a Soros plant, Vivek is liberal, Vivek can’t be trusted because some Freepers do not like the Hindu religion.

That’s a really convincing video.
The mud slinging is particularly bad this season.

My candidate is Trump.

If he is killed by the Dems (God forbid) or kept off the ballots by Dem. lawfare then I’m open to any non-communist candidate within reason.

“but they stand against the Mohammedans surrounding them, and that helps America.”

But more and more, the U.S. is becoming friendlier to Mohammedans.

The very least you could have done was direct us to flash forward to the 6:00 mark so we could get the full explanation to the question posed to him about transgenders in order to keep his comment in context.....

I saw a reference to his being a Soros plant. Is there anything to back that up?

No.....Not unless you're listening to the VR haters here.......

I stepped on an electrified third rail by asking. It’s campaign season and time to wear protective gear.

No, he basically got some money from a Fellowship established by the brother of the Soros people actually care about to help him through law school. Vivek owes evil George nothing. And this was 12 years ago.

Details:

Each Fellowship supports one to two years of graduate study in any field and in any advanced degree-granting program in the United States.

Each award is for up to a total of $90,000. Here is the financial break down: Each Fellow receives $25,000 in stipend support a year (all stipend awards are capped at $50,000 per year), as well as 50 percent of required tuition and fees, up to $20,000 per year, for one to two years. The first year of Fellowship funding cannot be deferred.

Most importantly, new Fellows join a strong community of current and past Fellows who all share the New American experience. There is an alumni association, The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellows Association (PDSFA), which actively engages current and past Fellows in events held across the country.

Full eligibility requirements can be found here. If you are interested in connecting with a university fellowship advisor, you can find a list of universities with advisors here.

The competition is merit-based. Selection criteria emphasize creativity, originality, initiative, and sustained accomplishment. The program values a commitment to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The program does not have any quotas for types of degrees, universities or programs, countries of origin, or gender, etc. Unsuccessful applicants are welcome to reapply in subsequent years if they are still eligible.

His only alleged connection to Soros is that he was a recipient of the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans in 2011,
