At the center of the stage, and the center of the debate's hottest exchanges, was a 38-year-old man who no one expected to be there even a few months ago – a novice candidate and technology entrepreneur named Vivek Ramaswamy.
Though he’s well behind Trump, Ramaswamy has crept up in recent polls, leading to his position next to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis at center stage.

At one point he declared “I’m the only person on the stage who isn’t bought and paid for.” He slammed his rivals as “super PAC puppets” who were using “readymade, pre-prepared slogans” to attack him.

the girl with the Sikh parents buried hte Hindu guy.
He doesn’t want to be VP, and why does he need Trump for anything?

Then he will just have to just wait his turn, which is what he should have done in the beginning rather than piss Trump off.
But in reality, it is anything but secular.
LK Advani, a leader of the BJP: “Everyone who lives in India must eitehr be Hindu or subservient to Hinduism.”
Maybe that’s why Nimrata went after Vivek so hard. Since he’s of Hindustani ancestry, I’d ask if his family has any connection to the RSS.
I’m sorry, but that’s just not true.
The better-looking twin sister.
So it’s all about Trump?
“A Fox panel unanimously said DeSantis won.”
You mean in the debate???
Didn’t watch, saw President Trump instead.
I hope Trump does NOT consider him for anything.
That’s a GREAT one!!!
The founders exempted themselves because the United States of America didn’t exist when they were born. It was physically impossible for any of them to meet any legal definition of a “natural born citizen.”
Right. He’s a manicured globalist tool.
