Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy remains in the spotlight after his headline-inducing campaign flamed out six months ago.
Ramaswamy, 38, an author and businessman, will be speaking at the GOP convention in Milwaukee next week, two sources familiar tell National Review, reflecting his prominence among Republicans. A spokesperson for Ramaswamy declined to comment further.
Last year, Ramaswmay burst onto the scene during the GOP presidential primary by making himself a constant fixture in the press and generating viral moments online. His penchant for debating and offering bold proposals to dramatically curtail the administrative state fueled his unexpected rise in early primary

Let the gnashing of teeth begin.
No surprise, even DeSantis is speaking at the convention. The real news is who is not. No Christie, no Haley, no Bush, ...
No Christie, no Haley, no Bush
The others are obvious. Haley cannot be trusted and if her speech went sideways it’s all we would see 24/7.
Was hoping that Vivek would be VP..I like him, he would help bring in the young voters and he would wipe the living hell out of Harris at a debate it would be HILARIOUS to watch. My mom personally likes Cotton for VP
“Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking, and I admit to feeling a little stage fright, I am honored to speak here today.”🎙️🎙️🔊🔊🔊🔊
There was a good article about Cotton for VP a couple months ago that made a very good case for him. But he’s never mentioned.
I was about to make a service call when a news show for a network didn’t say Vivek was set to appear later in the hour.
Something must be wrong.
Then they corrected it and said Vivek would be interviewed for the fourth time in three days.
So camera shy.
D8d you ever get your timer?
I’m looking forward to Vivek’s speech. I expect it to be a barnburner.
ENOUGH! I and FR do NOT need your continued BS.
Again, I have asked to stop posting to me. Your insults and namecalling need to stop.
Jim recently wrote on this, "I've been asked to chime in, so I'm chiming ... You know the guidelines and rules. I don't need to repeat them again and again and again. We are mostly adults here and mostly Christian conservatives ... Before you post that next profane post or personal attack just ask yourself, what would Jesus do." See https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4243242/posts
And more from Jim: "...if someone says STOP, then STOP! If someone asks you to take them off your ping list, then take them off! If someone asks you to stop posting to them, the adult and polite thing to do is to accommodate them." See https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4166577/posts
And of course there is the FR homepage, "...use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience..." See https://freerepublic.com/home.htm
So, again, please respect my request, respect Jim's rules, and please stop posting to me.
Big Vivek fan. He’s a brilliant speaker, smart as they come. He’d make an extraordinary Press Secretary or Secretary of State. Presstitutes and foreign governments would never be able to outsmart, outwit, or outplay him.
I like him.
Right.
Vivek is not a Natural Born Citizen, he’s a Soros surrogate, he’s part of the WEF, he’s a con man and he doesn’t brush after every meal.
Deport him!
Same here, but he’s too valuable for Press Secretary.
Vivek needs to be in the administration but not necessarily as VP. He’s too young and unknown.
He needs to prove to the people that think he’s a fraudulent conman that he’s not, while fighting for policies & positions that can improve the country.
If he does that, he has a bright future in politics, if he just wants to fill up his bank account he won’t.
So what if DeSantis dissed Trump? Trump also dissed DeSantis. That's what candidates for a party's nomination do. Later, they come together.
Bush 1 dissed Reagan, and became his VP. Bush wasn't a great president, but he was a loyal VP.
Not sure what you mean by “fill his bank account”. Vivek’s already a billionaire. Didn’t inherit it, smart guy made it on his own. He could probably make another billion if he chose to, but more interested in public service.
