Vivek Ramaswamy has emerged as a great Presidential candidate for the Republican nomination. First, his recent article in the American Conservative about the genocide perpetrated by Azerbaijan against the Armenians was fantastic. Ramaswamy has also been vocal in debates and in interviews about the Armenians.
Greek Americans should take notice. Pro Armenian candidates will translate to Pro Greek candidates. Furthermore, like Trump Ramaswamy is an America firster who rejects empire and an aggressive warmongering foreign policy. Advocates of foreign wars and empire will by necessity embrace Turkey. The best way to cut off Turkey is to vote for anti interventionist candidates against foreign wars. That there is a candidate espousing the Armenian cause is even better.
In addition, Ramaswamy has condemned the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church by the regime in Kiev. Ramaswamy specifically mentioned the Church persecution in a debate. Ramaswamy has pointed out the Nazi ties of Ukrainian President Zelensky.
This is a man very well informed about history and foreign affairs. He is a superior candidate to neoconservative stooges such as Nikki Haley and Ron Desantis. Desantis is a good man and has governed Florida well. His heroic fight against LGTB ideology deserves praise. His foreign policy credentials however are lacking.
So Trump and Ramaswamy represent the two strongest candidates for President. A ticket of Trump and Ramaswamy for Vice President would be a dream ticket. Ramaswamy’s candidacy means that Trump’s ideas are catching on. Of course, the anti war and anti empire stance in recent history was espoused by the now retired Patrick Buchanan.
In any case, the fight against the neocons and warmongers (friends of Turkey) is alive. Trump’s ideas are catching on and it will be a great legacy if the Republican Party maintains an anti war and anti empire posture in the post Trump era.
