Vivek Ramaswamy says ‘many believe that I am too young to be US President, but…’
Vivek Ramaswamy, a 38-year-old Indian-American entrepreneur and Republican presidential candidate, has faced many questions about his age, religion, and background on the campaign trail. He says many people are annoyed by his rise and believe that he is too young to be US President, but he has a different perspective.
Ramaswamy, who founded a pharmaceutical company called Roivant Sciences in 2014, declared his candidacy for the 2024 US presidential election in February 2023. He claims to be running on a platform of restoring the American identity and fighting against what he calls "new secular religions" like "COVID-ism, climate-ism, and gender ideology". He is also a critic of environmental, social, and corporate governance initiatives (ESG), which he says are undermining the free market and the American values.
Ramaswamy, who was born in Cincinnati to Indian Hindu immigrant parents, says he is proud of his heritage and his faith. He says he respects all religions and believes in religious liberty for everyone. He also says he is familiar with the Bible and often quotes from it in his speeches. He attended a Catholic high school and graduated from Harvard University with a degree in biology. He later earned a law degree from Yale Law School.
Ramaswamy says he is not intimidated by his age or his lack of political experience. He says he has proven himself as a successful businessman and a leader who can solve complex problems. He says he has a vision for the future of America that is based on innovation, entrepreneurship, and patriotism. He says he wants to bring back the American spirit that made the country great.
Ramaswamy says he is confident that he can win over the Republican voters, especially in the early states like Iowa and New Hampshire. He says he has been receiving positive feedback from the people he meets on the campaign trail. He says he is not afraid to challenge the status quo and the establishment. He says he is ready to take on the Democratic nominee, whoever that may be.
Ramaswamy says he is not running for president to make history or to represent a minority group. He says he is running for president to serve the American people and to defend the American ideals. He says he is running for president because he loves America and believes in its potential.
