Vivek Ramaswamy: My father made ‘a choice’ not to become an American citizen
#VivekRamaswamy #GOP #Politics
source
So if my math is mathing, he’s campaigning against birth right citizenship which is the same way he became a citizen…. lol dude just be real
Indians have been treated as second class citizens wherever they went. Dont blame the father for keeping a lifeline open.
I don't care what background or what color you are I want to see billionares and centi millionares pay their fair share of taxes. I want a country that cares about it's citizens being able to have houses, food, heat, and be able to raise a family without having to sacrifice their lives and their health to do so while rich entitled man babies are on welfare. Which is exactly what our politicians are on by using tax payer money for personal anything!!
This man is so unserious. He lacks empathy and compassion, he is willfully hypocritical. Son if immigrants with not a drop of the immigrant experience to draw from. Shameful
Under jis system his father wouid be in default. Aneruca eas fine until Trump invoked all the hatred and division.
And the reason why U only see me pushing back on these FAKE positive posts about U. Is because NO ONE ELSE CARES. They BEEN Done with U SIR.
LOL and then to have ALL of his friends post nice things on the Video he told them to post nice things on (allegedly) too funny. YOU are a CLOWN SIR. Go have several seats PLEASE!!
Dasha was judgmental in her tone & unprofessional with her questions regarding Viveks father.
This man will never be the man that Republicans look at as the leader of their party. Impossible lol
Is He Giving TRUMP & Base what They Want To HEAR? Sounds like That😂
vivek is jealous that his parents were aked to take the immigration test
I dont agree with this because children born here, what happens if the cant pass the test? Are they then depoeted drom their home country, the only place they know? I believe our schools need to be educated more about our country but this is the wrong way to go about it.
I agree
TRUMP RAMASWAMY 2024 …. is probably going to be the ticket.
Faux af
Vivek is an anchor baby railing against anchor babies.
You guys have an immigrant problem and want to vote in a second generation American. Good luck . And you don’t think there are ties .
vivek teaching her the meaning of legally lol
I see most of you went to Trump University.😂😂😂😂
Her point is that he's a hypocrite – he got birthright Citizenship,, but he wants to deny birthright citizenship to other people (ie US-born children of 'illegal' immigrants). But by the 14th Amendment, US-born children of 'illegal' immigrants ARE US citizens. BTW, he's also a hypocrite on affirmative action, he says he's against it, but he used it when he didn't even need it (Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans). He's also against the H1-B visa (which allows companies to bring in and underpay foreign engineers and scientists at the expense of American engineers and scientists), but he employed a shitload of H1-B visa holders in his companies. This guy is a real piece of work, God help his wife and children.
😂
The Fourteenth Amendment says: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." So US-born children of 'illegal' immigrants ARE American citizens. If not, a huge number of Americans of European descent gotta go back to Europe.
🤦🤦🤦🤦 then send back everyone! bc I have natural American students that are underscoring on history tests while my immigrant students are outscoring them. Let that sink in…
Why arent republicans questioning his citizenship like they did with Obama?
Amazing at beginning how she went like laser beam to his dads status , Talked like there was a smoking gun. Abviosly she would have known he had come legally if he had not press would have uncovered that before now…. Especially since he is Republibcan
Leadership. Seriously people, are you hearing any other candidate even remotely lay out as precise and well thought-out of a plan to revive America? Is it even close? On every topic of discussion, on every issue facing our country, no other candidate brings to the table what Vivek does. Go Vivek!
The bimbo did not figure out how to interrupt and talk over him.
His father is a proud indian and thats why we see ramaswamy so passionate abt america. The patriotism sometimes run in blood. India doesn't allow dual citizenship, so his dad made a choice. whats wrong in that?
Has anyone Demanded to see his birth certificate like REPUBLICANS did for Obama?
CONMAN V ROTTEN SALAMI IS BARAAK OBUMMER 2.0 OF THE RIGHT WING.
Trump 2.0. How is this going to sound to Trump's White Nationalist base? Father is not a citizen… hmmmm.
This fake guy will never be potus. I hope the fanboys posting here take note of that. NEVER
He isn't American enough.
He’s striking a case for a homogenous culture that US is intrinsically NOT
Talk about pulling the ladder up behind you
NBC was teeing up that immigrant question as a gotcha. Vivek ran circles around them. Vivek 1 – NBC 0.
I don't know why it's difficult for these liberal news outlets to understand the difference between legal and illegal residents.
