“I thought the video was enlightening. Those of you who want to shut down information, and thought, and force us into your chosen candidates are the ones who might not belong at a site named after freedom.”

The more information flow, the better. Even the lying propaganda can be useful in determining the enemy’s level of desperation. But I already know enough about Vivek to say hell no to him in any position of power or government. Thanks, anyway.

So what? I could care less about the man’s religion. As long as he support policies I support than that’s fine with me

Modi has waged war on Christians.
*************
Wrong. Modi has to put up with rogue Indian states with active mobs just like Trump had to put up with rogue American states with active mobs.

Vivek claims to be a monotheistic Hindu. I'm curious which Hindu God he worships.

Vishnu. There is one sect that is sort of monotheistic. By which I mean they only worship Vishnu (as God Almighty) without denying the existence of the others.

Not really monotheistic from my Christian perspective, but he's not lying.

Wrong. Modi has publicly stated he wants to eliminate other religions and have a pure Hindu state.

Something is wrong with Pence, there is just something really weird about him!! It is really AMAZING that after 4 years as VP I never realized just how weird this guy is!! Thinking about though I can’t recall him EVER being front and center on ANYTHING except Covid, and even then Fauci stole the show the media had that little gnome on such a pedestal!!!!

As a younger Conservative, you would think that most here would feel proud to see and hear a new generation of Conservatives picking up the baton and ready to do battle! 75% of what I see and hear on FR is so overwhelmingly negative about anything & everything ..... except Trump & he can do no wrong. Unfortunately, most here don’t care about who comes after & are we passing our morals & philosophy to future generations. I believe that most of the folks here will end up winning the Democrats the next several elections because on some level I think many here get off on losing & painting themselves as a victim class. It’s started occurring to me that many of the same right-of-center people who complain about blacks, gays & other minority groups & their victimization-chic personal & identity politics- are the very same people whining & bitching & wallowing about what victims they are. I’ve voted for Trump twice & I’d vote for him again- but I’m thinking longer term than one guy! Quit being pathetic!!! 🙄😑🤨😵‍💫😵

I’m younger too. Aside from Religon, Rama swampy is a Pro- tpp, hb1, vaccine pusher. Just another swamp Wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Believe officials of GOP. If they allow Ramaswamy in Republican primary debates, they have obviously accepted his eligibility.

Do not try to make sense to rednecks. They do not think with their brain.

Most of our Christian presidents were in name only and only practiced their religion when there was a photo opportunity.

At least Vivek is honest about what he believes when it isn’t popular. I’d be more worried about the decisions of an Indian based on their caste than on their religious beliefs.

Does he believe in religious freedom? That’s all that matters.

I agree with you. There is a lot of negativity on Free Republic.

Undoubtedly some of that has to do with how Republicans have not done well in elections in 2020 and 2022. But then a lot of people here have an attitude of ,what’s the use of voting, it’s just going to be rigged anyway and tell us elections are not important.

And some people here say they would rather vote for a Democrat, than vote for a Republican who is not purely conservative enough. That’s a major issue here that most Republicans are considered to be RINOs.

Part of the pessimism may be that the people of Free Republic are more conservative than your average Republican,

It is easier to criticize somebody or criticize things going on in this country, than it is to talk about what we can do to change things. Maybe that’s part of what we see on this site.

Man you have this wrong. When someone awards a scholarship for your education you seriously look at who provided the money? Think about what Vivek stands for. Would Soros take his money back if he could?

“.... people of Free Republic are more conservative than your average Republican ....”

EXACTLY!!!!!

Some people here go crazy when I point that out!
Also, the people of FR are far far more into “politics” then the average voter even the average Republican or even conservative. I see this all the time when I’ve gone out on the political hustings for state & local candidates and ballot initiatives.
