CHICAGO — Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy made a surprise appearance on the final day of the Democratic National Convention, just hours before Vice President Harris is set to take the stage.
“I held a conference open to the public, open to the press, earlier today, where I laid out an alternative vision — the vision that not only our party, but the America First movement and Donald Trump stands for — to give voters that choice,” Ramaswamy said when asked by The Hill what his goal was in attending the convention.
“And it was to call on Kamala Harris to offer her own vision. Let’s see if she does it tonight,” he added.
He noted that he was at the convention for a few hours and was committed to doing some interviews, saying he believed in open debate. He also noted that he had spent some time with the protesters in the city.
“The beauty of this country is you get to express your opinion, whether or not I agree with it, you get to express your opinion. That’s what a lot of the protesters outside were doing,” Ramaswamy said.
“And you know what? We’re not in this just to lead the people who agree with us. We’re in this to lead an entire country, and that’s what I wanted to show by being here, is we believe in open debate,” he said. “We can do it respectfully. You can do it peacefully.”

I’m curious about the “peacefully” part. Wonder if he tried dialoguing with Pantifa.
You know, those peaceful “yutes” that won’t show their face, but will swing a brick at you “just ‘cuz.”
You can’t negotiate with terrorists, Leftists or the media.
“Ramaswamy makes surprise appearance at Democratic convention”
Meanwhile, Democrat presidential candidates won’t even consider debating Republicans on “conservative” news outlets like FOX news.
And when kamala finally sits down for an "interview", it will be with a friendly host from msnbc and it will be softballs and then she will say "You see, I've done interviews" case closed.
Wonder if he tried dialoguing with Pantifa.

One Hindu to another dialogue.
She absolutely did with her new slogan:
...With this election, our nation has a precious, fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness, cynicism, and divisive battles of the past.No doubt now of the hard left vision Harris has for the country. Forward is the favorite word of the marxists. It's not a coincidence that her slogan uses it.A chance to chart a New Way Forward.
...
We are not going to let him eliminate the Department of Education that funds our public schools. We are not going to let him end programs like Head Start that provide preschool and child care.America, we are not going back. We are charting. A. New. Way. Forward.
Forward—to a future with a strong and growing middle class.
India’s a wreck. Why not go do good there?
Vivek was born in Cincinnati. The USA is his country. He's done nothing but be of service to it.
Or are you going to, in your racism, tell me I should focus on fixing Germany since that's where my father came from?
IMO if you put Victor Davis Hanson and Ramaswamy in a room together, you would have the two smartest men in the country in one place - OK, Musk can join also.. We’re lucky!!
How is the original post “racist,” Karen?
He’s too good to waste on India.
There’s enough to fix here. Why should a US citizen help a foreign land?
Vivek is not afraid to go into the den of the beast. He was scouting out the DNC hell hole.
Karen? You think that one up all by yourself?
You made a stupid comment. You got called out for it. Don’t get your panties in a ruffle.
Just avoid making stupid comments and you won’t need to be called out for them.
Why don’t YOU go fix India? Why is it any more Ramaswamy’s job as it is yours?
Bingo! That along with an "America unburdened by the past".
In that regard, I was willing to give odds that Kamala and or Michelle would be wearing black and red clothes.
Re: 9 - what a bush league comment.
Knock it off.
Indians stick together.
Yeah surprised myself that they didn’t do that, but it’s coming because more and more they are exposing themselves. It’s partly the influence of President Trump who is the greatest truth-telling inducing substance in the history of the universe, but also because they feel like they’re close enough and can see it squarely in front of them that they’re letting their true intentions be known. I think they feel that it will actually carry the day because they know they have this hardcore set of supporters who have been waiting for this since 2008 and with the rest of the party being on board no matter what they do, they are going for it.
