My grad school was full of Indian students, and I think we straight-up asked them if their factories follow the same principles as the corporate office. 

 

The response was "don't ask."

Even the corporate offices, in say India.  are the Dalits allowed to work?  Can women be management?  

 

The Indian students at your grad school were probably Brahmin / Kshatriyas.  like you said, it really wouldn't matter to them.  

 

Vaishyas and Shudras are more in the working class.

Vivek Ramaswamy shares 10 commandments of 2024 campaign, starts with 'God is real,' 'There are two genders'

Which one?

 

 

They aren't "commandments, but you knew that.

 

 

A list of 10 things that the candidate says HE believes are real.

 

He doesn't demand that you believe them all, he just wants you to know that he does.

 

 

How illuminating that when a politician says that he/she believes that God is real,  it sets off alarms for the biased here.

 

Must be all those theocracies that have been set up in the U.S. over the past 250 years. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Oh wait, no one has.

From each other, or priorities USA/Act Blue?

 

 


I think this is an aggregate of negative spends against each candidate, so it would likely cover ad buys from each other as well.

I mean it's worked if we're being honest. DeSantis is getting buried. I'm not even sure he finishes 2nd above Vivek anymore. 


Vivek is interesting in a Republican Obama kind of way.  
 

I don’t dislike him .. I could get behind him over Trump.  
 

But his “surge” is manufactured hype (so far).  Following the Trump model of flooding the zone with nonsense polls that give an illusion of momentum.  Only Fox News recent poll is any legitimate one that shows him doing anything more than 2-4%.   That could certainly change though, as it seems the more people hear from him, the more they like him. 
 

That said, he won’t be the nominee, because he has zero intention of being that.  He’s a Trump plant and potential VP.

Yup.  He's never even been a mayor, much less a Congressman, much much less a Governor.

I think it will be Trump or DeSantis next year. But maybe 2028.

Ron DeSantis' Debate strategy memos have leaked.

 

He thinks he going to win by...hitting Vivek, not Trump, and by sharing emotional anecdotes.

 

This guy is ***** clueless. 

The headline is a lie and you actually read the article and still thought it was true. The group that presented the info has no direct connection to DeSantis and the info was not leaked it was presented to the world. This is someone's very public thoughts on what he should do, not his campaigns. Truly written for the least intelligent since the article completely obliterated the headline.

No.

It sets off my finely tuned bs detector when a Hindu speaks in terms of a singular capital G god.

Ramaswamy's god is (not surprisingly) Rama. One of the Hindu gods, sometimes considered to be a manifestation or avatar of Vishnu. Certainly not the God of the Old Testament.

So it is idiotic pandering for a follower of a polytheistic religion to put out a statement that "God is real." All gods are real? That's a refutation of the religious right voters he's trying to pander to. Let's hope they see right through it.

A more honest approach: I am a Hindu. I follow a moral code based on my religion and sense of morality. I respect your Christian faith and I pray to my gods that you will respect my Hindu faith, and I believe you will find some important similarities in the moral codes we follow.

It was deliberately leaked by his far and away dominant PAC. A PAC led by the same guy who has now been pulled into the immediate DeSantis campaign. 

It was leaked because it's illegal for these PACs to coordinate with campaigns. In other words, the PAC people can't call the DeSantis campaign people and say "you're doing it wrong; here's what our research shows would work better." So they posted - briefly, but long enough for everyone including the campaign to take notice - a strategy memo for everyone to see. Technically no "coordination" that way. There's nothing happenstance or "outsider" here.

Your instincts are spot on I think.
