I so agree with you! Trump and Vivek would be like the "dynamic duo cleaning up Gotham City." 2024 will be the year to begin steamrolling over the Deep State underworld and Making America Great Again!

He truly is on an elite level, not just with money, but with skills in many areas. Versus the Joe Biden style "elites" There is no contest to anyone paying attention.
Indeed an extraordinary level of articulation of complex concepts with ease. What an awesome thing that one day the United States would have Vivek as its VP.
This was pure genious. He cut right down the middle of conservatism differentiating between libertarian conservatism and protectionist conservatism and provided clear, concise, and well-articulated reasons with examples and did so with charisma and charm. This speech to me is right up there with Millei's WEF speech and needs to be remembered as such.
Good for Vivek for emphasizing how correct the libertarians are regarding the administrative state. I'm so tired of conservatives and their "we just need the right people in there" naivete.
When he was speaking at the Libertarian national convention, I wasn't sure if he was just telling us what we wanted to hear, but I really appreciate that he's saying the same thing in front of a group of conservatives
Libertarianism is the Dumbest Political Ideology on the Right side of the Spectrum... It ranks up there with its counterpart of Socialism. As a Libertarian, you people actually stand for nothing... Let me give you a few examples: LIBERTARIAN: "I'm against Abortion, but hey, if you want to, go ahead and do it... who am I to tell you what to do?" LIBERTARIAN: "I'm pro Free Speech, but if you are for Censorship, then go right ahead, who am I to tell you what to do?" LIBERTARIAN: I believe in Freedom of Religion, but if you are for an Islam Only State, then go right ahead, who am I to tell you what to do?" LIBERTARIAN: 'I''m against childp orn0 graphy, but if you are into that, go right ahead, who am I to tell you what to do?" The RESPONSE of the LEFT: Great... ! When we get into Power, we will MAKE you do it our way.
Vivek's own example of the train disaster shows why we cannot completely get rid of the administrative state. Don't get carried away by the rhetoric. The administrative state will continue to exist, albeit in a reduced form, and preferably it should be populated with people who are ideologically opposed to its expansion.
I really like Vivek, but many Republicans are not entirely behind Trump and instead support JD Vance. Like Trump, Vivek is strong and intelligent and articulately dismantles his opponents. I believe Vivek will positively impact the country, and I will vote for him when the time comes.
This had to be the best single talk at this conference. Insightful, fascinating, and ultimately focused right on target on some of the biggest problems + how to actually improve them. Vivek is without a doubt the #1 non-Christian politician I would most love to have a conversation with.
@@hanzethetickler1137 I 100% agree with you on that point. But, voters want to hear a clear, simple, concise message from their future candidate. Vivek is down to earth when he wants to be. But you lose your audience when you start discussing details. Keep it Simple. That's all he has to do.
@@annoyboyPictures I disagree. Rather he is changing the narrative so that the populace can digest difficult concepts and don't be the airheads that politicians expect them to be.
@@theriam6281an isolator who respects every religion is a valid path to eternal god . Or would you support left liberal vile islamic forces that forces everyone to follow one faith ???
@@theriam6281 If you don't want him, give him back to us😂😂 I just wish any politician here in India was as smart, articulate and as accomplished as Vivek. No one in American politics comes even close to his brilliance and no one in Indian politics either You guys are lucky to have him
Since I first heard Vivek speak I thought this is the type of person who should occupy the Presidency. Intellectually gifted, literate, eloquent, principled, passionate, and physically fit. I'm not here to Trump bash, but I can't even imaging DJT giving a talk this articulate and coherent. So, maybe you don't like VIvek's Indian heritage or maybe you think he's too young; but, if this were a "Voice" type competition where you didn't see the candidate, who would you pick??? DJT? Vivek? Biden? Kamala? Etc..For me a very easy answer.
Labelling Vivek a once-in-a-generation genius would be an understatement. More like a once-in-a-century once. Would love to see him get the Dept of Education - and then shut it down after 1 week, exiting the building and ceremoniously switching off the last light.
Lol there are loads of people in india but no one will listen. India is truly a banana republic. Good that smart people moving out and atkeast make use of their potential somewhere else.
The issue that Vivek seems to have is, Does Trump actually agree with his stance on shutting shit down? If he does, then the choice of Vivek for VP seems clear. If he doesn't...
Trump goes behind individuals and characters and fires them. Meanwhile Vivek goes behind Roots, system and patterns. In first term, All Trump did was replace individuals he didn't like with people he liked. That's it. Same system.
Excellent exposition of National Libertarianism. I am still waiting on Vivek following up on his promise to stand against Kelo vs. New London: Eminent Domain for Private Gain.
VIVEK, WOULD MAKE A AWESOME LEADER SOME DAY. HE KNOWS HIS LAWS. HE LOVES ❤️HIS COUNTRY. 🇺🇸HE'S VERY INTELLIGENT HE'S LIKE DONALD🇺🇸 TRUMP 🇺🇸YOUNGER VERSION.
Love love love your requirements of ourselves Vivek! Give me 2 years of national service for every single citizen post High School. Radically reverses wokeism and improves quality and durability of constructional republic
Sadly it doesn't look like Trump will be picking Vivek as VP. It's looking like JD Vance, Rubio or Burgum. BIG mistake if that's the case. Vivek is far more popular, intelligent and outspokenly clear about his priority - the American people, and has laid out HOW he would do that. Vivek would also bring in disaffected Democrats, liberals, youth and non-voters. Tulsi would also be a great pick. Ideally Vivek/Tulsi 2028
Actually it was proven before he dropped out, he really would not add much to Trump getting elected. And he would be A MUCH better fit for a cabinet position. He will have Much more impact.
I am now getting sick of this guy. His smartness puts other Indians like us under pressure. I used to think i am damm smart. But i dont think i can hold myself up with him beyond 5 minutes
He was actually like this on the campaign trail speeches. I think you mean his media appearances and the ones he does when Trump calls him up that sounds a little cookie-cutter.
This guy is too Smart to be VP, a job where you sit in front of the Senate, Smile, and Do Nothing. He'll be much better as Chief of Staff or anything where he can actually gut the agencies.
That's not true. The President is the only one who has the power to drain the swamp but can delegate it to the VP as the Swamp Czar. He can be the Border Vzar also.
Thanks Vivek. Ben Shapiro told me to watch this in order to understand the counter conservative economic perspective to those held by JD Vance, Tucker Carlson, a seemingly growing number of others.
You are the best candidate for VP. No one else comes close. I hope Trump realizes that and doesn't fall into the trap of his donors and advisors, who all have their own agendas and would stab Trump in the back and destroy his presidency, along with the Democrats, as they did last time.
Someone making sense and drawing the people to his ideas can only result in one thing: persecution from the lawfare state and women making bogus charges against him. Let us pray for Vivek that he can weather the storm.
AMEN, IF The vote counters declare the election against Trump, You damn betchy, The Vek will be taken down if not his citizenship revoked, oh yes as THEY DID Benedict Arnold the man without a country, the United States did it to him, they will not hesitate kicking the Ramaswamy family out of the USA, and his parents put on a slow boat to India.

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams' perspectives on commerce policy. Source: Friends Divided: Thomas Jefferson and John Adams by Gordon S. Wood, Chapter 6-8: But Jefferson, the enlightened dreamer, hadn't given up. In 17/85, he asked Adams what he thought of his draft of a model treaty to be presented to the courts of England and France. He admitted that the treaty went beyond our powers, and beyond the powers of Congress too. But unfortunately, it also went beyond the powers of possibility. It was truly radical. It not only proposed the free flow of commerce between the 2 signatory nations, but also provided that the intercourse between all the subjects and citizens of the 2 parties shall be free and unrestrained. While traveling in each other's territory, the peoples of each nation would be considered to every intent and purpose as members of the nation where they are, entitled to all the protections, rights, and advantages of the natives of the other nation, but without any requirement for religious conformity. The signatory nations might confine their public offices to natives. Otherwise, this treaty that placed natives and aliens on an equal footing promised a mutuality of citizenship among nations. It was the fulfillment of an enlightened vision of a world that would exist virtually without borders. Adams politely told Jefferson that his model treaty was a fine, idealistic effort, but, unfortunately, it was not appropriate to the realities of European politics. We must not, my friend, be the bubbles of our own liberal sentiments. If we cannot obtain reciprocal liberality, we must adopt reciprocal prohibitions, exclusions, monopolies, and imposts. Our offers have been fair, more than fair. If they are rejected, we must not be dupes. By 1787, Adams had become convinced, as he told Jefferson, that neither philosophy nor religion nor morality nor wisdom nor interest will ever govern nations or parties against their vanity, their pride, their resentments or revenges, or their avarice or ambitions. Nothing but force and power and strength can restrain them. In ascribing personal passions to nations in this peculiar manner, Adams was merely expressing his deepening understanding of himself and his fellow human beings. In the end, Adams' realism turned out to be more accurate than Jefferson's enlightened vision. Only 3 states, Sweden, Prussia, and Morocco, peripheral powers with little overseas trade, agreed to sign liberal commercial treaties with the United States, none of which involved more than most favored nation commercial relations. Most European states were indifferent to the Americans' enlightened ideas of commerce. Ignorance, said Jefferson, to the power of American commerce.
Jesus, imagine what this man could do as president of the Senate. They’d not be able to BS someone who armors himself in curiosity, integrity, and candor.
In economic terms, trade, immigration, and automation all fall in the same category. While at first glance, those three things in of themselves appear to compete with native labor and thus reduce purchasing power, that’s simply not true. All three increase total supply in the economy, and in a free market (very important qualifier), it happens that they produce more than they consume. Otherwise it wouldn’t be profitable to make that trade or hire that immigrant or buy that robot. The only way for a native worker’s purchasing power to decrease would be if their percentage slice of the consumption pie decreased significantly to offset the growth of the pie. But every occupation is affected by at least one of either trade, immigration, or automation. The ratios of the consumptive slices is rather unchanged, assuming there is no state policy that protects one occupation over another. While there will be more competition in your occupation, that detriment is more than offset by cheaper goods and services you obtain from everybody other industry. However, even from a purely economic point of view, immigration quickly becomes detrimental if it is subsidized (free schools and healthcare), if housing supply is constrained (i.e. zoning laws due to local opposition to population increase), or only unskilled labor is coming in (more willing to be trafficked than engineers). Even without that, you still have the massive effect on the culture, demographics, and political identity of the nation. Accordingly, instead of permanent immigration, there should be a guest worker program where people come in to work in their prime years and return to retire. Dedicated areas for housing would need to be created for that purpose to avoid the local opposition to development that would otherwise result in increased housing scarcity and prices we see now. As for trade, tariffs should only be retaliatory in nature to get other countries to lower tariffs. The end goal being zero tariffs worldwide. Trade deficits are essentially equivalent to gifts. You just pocket the excess and use domestic labor to produce more of whatever else consumers demand. There is always more and more consumer demand in the face of increasing purchasing power. The only exception to free trade would be restrictions on sourcing essential national security goods from adversaries. Finally, automation really has no caveats, except of course making sure AI doesn’t decide to exterminate us one day.
Don't count your chickens before they hatch. People still have to actually 'pull the lever' in Nov and Republicans are notorious for being lazy when they think they'll win.
i hope the republicans turn out in strong numbers. right wing in india made the compacency mistake earlier this year and lost the clear majority we had for the last year. all the best
Democracies and republics create political factions that use the people to get into the federal government. Jacksonian democracy was a reaction against Hamiltonian bureaucrats who spent a lot of money. Only Andrew Jackson has paid back our debts and balanced the budget. We need this kind of figure every 8 years in America. Also Warren Buffet's idea, if Congress overspends, make them ineligible for reelection.
This is where Vivek is soft. At this point, a large majority of Americans want a moratorium on immigration like we had from the 1920s until the 1960s. And when it comes to trade, the top priority must be the elimination of the trade deficit, which exploded exponentially starting in the 1990s, and has been bleeding 3% of GDP for 20+ years, which is a far greater harm to the economy than any benefit to businesses or consumers. The first place to start is to eliminate any trade deals that are lopsided against us, and to completely stop using trade policy as an instrument of foreign policy, where we’re willing to give away bad trade deals to achieve some other objective. International trade organizations should be avoided in favor of bilateral negotiations, and any barriers and tariffs erected by the other country must be matched by ours. The trade must be even, or we lose. A surplus is a fantasy at this point, but that would be even better. As it stands, we are making other countries rich, and the only way that money makes its way back to the US is through them buying our debt, and American assets like real estate. We are giving other countries the money to buy our country out from under us, and they call that “foreign investment”. Meanwhile, the standard of living of the average American declines, because they aren’t any part of those transactions, aside from buying cheap plastic junk at Walmart. Which is not remotely an equal trade for their suppressed incomes. That must end. The only alternative is what the left offers, which is welfare, and possibly “UBI”. Which is the typical socialist recipe of making everyone equally poor while the pie shrinks. So the talk about protecting specific industries (which may be called for in critical areas) is missing the point that the US economy has been disintegrated across the board by these massive trade deficits. That must be the focus, and he didn’t even mention it. Libertarianism is not conservatism. It’s all well and good to promote economic libertarianism within the US, but it must stop at the border. Low taxes and regulations that make the US a favorable place to do business? Absolutely. But mass immigration and massive trade deficits to satisfy the corporate thirst for cheap labor must end, and must end now, or the country will end. And immigration control must include raw numbers, because the raw numbers are what make it unsustainable and destructive. Immigrants have to be absorbed and assimilated, and when the flow is too fast, that doesn’t happen. Not to mention the continual downward pressure on wages. The raw numbers are what is destabilizing the society.
@@vaportrails7943 but they are cousins. The most important thing to conserve is freedom and liberty! All most of us want is a return to the Constitution and reduction in the size and scope of government.
Vivek is doing great work getting us to think about these things. But I am not convinced that our concerns about Xinjiang are any more real than Black Lives Matter. So far as I can tell, that too is propaganda. All the most lurid things we hear about Xinjiang and China in general, are false I believe. We should compete with China but strictly on a basis of truth and competence and productivity. I hate the way it looks like we are trying to "contain" China and keep them down.
Here’s the problem: - I don’t want a left-wing nanny state or a right wing nanny state either - but if two teams are playing a game and one side cheats and the other side doesn’t - and the referees do nothing to stop the cheating - the cheaters will win… even if, in some long-run view, the cheaters are hurting themselves on what they could have been. The above is the challenge to national libertarians and national conservatives. It’s a very DIFFICULT issue.
Soany good points - morning news a Canadian got killed by IDF near Gaza in their response to stabbing attacks on their citizens.

On my short stay in Sanfrancisco airport I saw two asian police officer which were chatting to each other in chiness language!. That was so strange! How would you protect your country if a war errupts?
Maybe they speak more languages than you do. I’ve known many non-Americans who can speak four or five languages. Assuming they’re bilingual, wouldn’t they have more utility, being able to talk Chinese to Chinese immigrants who don’t speak very good English. Think about it.
@@glennm7086 you didn't get the point. It is not about how many languages a person speack. I said it was and Chinees guy. In case of war or intelligent service and cyber security challenges how would you trust in fate of these people! Any American working in China security services. 🤔
@@Baraye-Ma I’m not sure what you’re saying. Apparently you don’t even speak one language. You sound very racist with your comment if I’m interpreting it correctly.
Personally, I would prefer a libertarian free trade world, but at the moment there is another reason to prefer going all the way to protectionism: it reduces our temptation to interfere in other sovereign countries around the world; it would wind in many of the tentacles of the American empire, and that in turn would reduce the motivation of other countries to steer our foreign policy, and allow more attention to domestic policy. In the short term this is economically bad for our allies, but in the long term, it is good for them, starting with regaining their sovereignty AKA freedom. And free allies are strong allies in a real sense. Look at Viktor Orban: Hungary is just about the only sovereign country in Europe, and also the only one that is any actual help in interacting with Russia. Contrast with the UK, which slavishly helped the USA into the stupid Iraq war, and right now is one of the most stupidly gung-ho pro-Ukraine countries (BTW I am a Brit who used to be exactly that stupid too).
His vision is just neoliberalism-lite, branded as "national", while remaining deeply "global" without a great industrial (economic) and cultural (immigration) agenda.
I'm confused. Yoram said that everything has to be centred around the ten commandments. Now you are saying that your most important goal must be to put a guy in the White House who has broken all of them.
We need to look at likely outcomes in the future, not tie our own hands by moralizing about the past. By the way, the most famous leader of the Bible, King David, broke half of the 10 commandments too. It is no joke; it had serious consequences, but he was still useful, even a hero; the alternatives were much worse and it was not immediately obvious why; the Bible tries to make you think.
@@andyjones1982 We all sin and fall short, David committed terrible sins yet God called him a “man after his own heart” After decades, I am still trying to process that, but it gives me encouragement and hope.
“Industrial policy that allows us to use taxpayer resources to subsidize certain critical production capacities where we’re less competitive today” is literally Biden’s and most Democrats’ whole economic platform. That’s “Bidenomics.” (I don’t say this as a dig, but to optimistically point out a potential economic convergence between the two parties.)
So - I disagree with the "single language" requirement - You can have national unity despite a multi-lingual citizenry. Also, anecdotally multi-lingual citizens tend to be higher IQ and hence accrues to the higher intelligence of the collective nation. Linguistic diversity is a good idea - religious diversity is generally a good idea - within the construct of constitution being supreme over religious doctrine.
I think Vivek's ideas to increase trade with allies is a good idea. As well as having LEGAL immigrants. Such a move will help to lift the living standard in those countries (by helping them with manufacturing etc.) We do not need those bloody wars! When America makes stupid, dumb and ignorant errors (e.g. "spreading democracy" in afeudl country, duh, when it took Europe centuries) it affects everyone. So, please America, put some intelligent people in charge of your country instead a demented a senile old man, a power hungry wife and public servants.
