I thought this was a neat interaction by Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
Cool clip by Vivek

Terrible audio!! I'm starting to like this guy the more and more I hear him talk. I don't know a lot about what his views are, but he seems very sensible and respectful. Something that is missing in politics.
He feels that not only should birthright citizenship be eliminated (something he himself benefited from) but citizenship shouldn't be granted to anyone automatically. Your ancestors helped settle Jamestown? Too bad, you need to pass a test. Your ancestors are indigenous people? Too bad, you need to pass a test. He hasn't explained what country the people who can't pass that test would belong to.
So, considering how well thought out that plan is, it's a good bet that most of his other ideas are just as stupid.
On the other hand, the affect on the GOP voting base this would have would probably allow for some amazing things to actually be dealt with for this country.
Anything is better than the Bernie Sanders ideas you believe in.
This is the guy who wants to take voting rights away.
Vocal supporter of Trump. What else does anyone need to know?
He wants to take voting rights away from dumb people who don't know anything about the USA. According to democrats, republicans are the dumbest people out there. So this should be something you support.
BTW, I am still undecided as to whether I agree with this. I could maybe get on board with a one time test that you have to pass in order to gain voting rights (with current voters grand fathered in, as well as all military members). but I think this is a slippery slope as well.
Read about him here. He’s not for me, I doubt he’s going anywhere.

Why military members? Some of the worst actors out there right now are ex-military.
That's my personal preference, I think if you are willing to serve in the military then you deserve the right to vote.
Once again, I am still did not decided on this item, nor did I put much thought into including military members.
He doesn't like how young people vote so is willing to strip them of their rights. Fvck him and anybody else who shares this view.
That's not what he says. He wants Americans to understand what America is. The individual still gets to vote how they want.
Last I checked, both Republicans and democrats both start out as kids. Are you saying republican kids are more likely to be able to pass the test?
I would vote for Christie and Asa over this guy.
He's a dumbass. Scruddy's endorsement simply reinforces it as a fact.
Don't feed him. 10 years after Bernie passes he'll still be on here posting the same dribble. He's more obsessed with a non-factor Democrat like Bernie than Chis is with Trump.
...let that sink in.
Since we all love whataboutism on here, may I point out that Trump would have had her removed and encouraged those removing her to rough her up a bit on the way out. I'm just happy to have adults speaking, even if I don't agree with everything said.
Must be hard seeing someone you don't like being more successful than you in literally every facet of life. Man has made close to a billion dollars while you're begging your boss to give you the weekend off from flipping burgers. Loser.
I encourage you to look up his background. He's a carnival barking scam artist. He dupes people easily who do not bother to investigate or ask questions.
The guy you voted for as president lies continually lol wanna talk about that kitchen fire story he told to the people of Maui? How about all those business dealings with his son he allegedly knew nothing about? How about the times he had to drop out of the running for president for plagiarizing? Hypocrites lmfao
I find that asking them to explain their ridiculous claims is enough to shut them up.
Yup, that's how he got rich. Being a fraud and scammer.
I knew what I typed. I picture him drooling when he posts his repetitive and often nonsensical drivel.
Therefore, it's nothing but dribble.
Pump and dump.
Ramaswamy’s tax records show that the first time he ever made big money was when he hyped up an Alzheimer’s drug candidate, Axovant, which had been discarded by other pharmaceutical companies. Axovant, which was 78% owned by Ramaswamy’s corporate holding company Roivant, blew up after failing FDA tests, with the stock crashing from $200 to 40 cents, fleecing thousands of mom-and-pop investors who bought into the hype. Ramaswamy himself profited handsomely (even if the Ramaswamy campaign took a while to acknowledge the truth).
Ramaswamy spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin first told us that “the idea that Vivek made any money on [Axovant’s] failure is a total lie” before finally acknowledging that Ramaswamy did indeed cash out, claiming “[Ramaswamy] and other shareholders were forced to sell a tiny portion of their shares in 2015 to facilitate an outside investor entering Roivant.” The facts are that Ramaswamy’s own tax returns show he opportunely sold out of nearly $40 million of Roivant stock right as Axovant’s hype was peaking. Meanwhile, Roivant was raising $500 million driven largely by Axovant. As Ramaswamy was busy selling his own personal stake, Roivant gradually reduced and diluted its Axovant stake from 78% to just 25%.
