Vivek Ramaswamy: The Millennial Candidate Making Waves
Vivek Ramaswamy, a 38-year-old entrepreneur and political newcomer, is gaining traction in the Republican primary race for the 2024 presidential election. While he emphasizes the challenges faced by millennials and younger Americans, his positions on issues like climate change and the voting age are out of step with his own generation. Ramaswamy proposes eliminating government agencies, raising the voting age to 25, and using the military to combat drug cartels in Mexico. Despite his lack of political experience and a party base that skews older, he is running third in national polling averages, positioning himself as a conservative alternative to Donald Trump.
