 All right, I also wanted another candidate. This is kind of out of left field a little bit, but I think really interesting. It's certainly gonna throw a lot of dynamism and I think some real discussion or real debate into the fray. And that's Vivek Ramaswamy. Vivek Ramaswamy. I don't know if you followed Vivek, if you haven't, you should. Vivek is a businessman, a former biotech executive. He is the guy that has led the charge against ESG. He founded an investment company that specifically is not ESG, does not invest in ESG companies and gotten a lot of traction and the investment fund is very large. Well, I think he's basically said he's running for the, in the Republican primary to be a presidential candidate. He is a, he is super dynamic, beautifully articulate. You're not gonna get any wishy washy BS from him. He is the antithesis of a politician, but this is the big difference with Trump. Super smart, off the charts smart, off the charts articulate knows exactly what he's saying and really engage. Now, he's Indian, you know, Vivek is his name, whether American people are ready to elect a Vivek Ramaswamy. I don't know, but this guy is interesting. Now, it turns out that I agree with a lot of what he says and then some things he says, I disagree violently. But I think he is so radical in many of what he says, even when the bad stuff, but also the good stuff, that he's gonna force a real debate. He's gonna force a real debate in America. I mean, one of his lines is America's lost site of their ideals that make it great. So he is explicitly referring to America's past as a great nation and the American principles that made it a great nation. He explicitly refers to the founding fathers and the constitution and declaration in terms of the documents that shaped American, shaped American culture. He is definitely so far as I've seen a free marketer and good on that. I'll get to a few, a couple of things. I mean, they're really only a couple of things that I disagree with him that I don't know of now. I have a theory that I disagree with him on other things as well, but it'll be interesting to see this. So here's some things that he stands for, right? You know, dismantle affirmative action. I mean, this is a Republican candidate for president saying affirmative action has to go. That's great. Abandoned climate, religion, that's amazing. This guy's obviously been influenced by Alex, by Alex Epstein, he's probably read Alex's book. Use military, okay, we'll get to that in a second. Let's see what else is good. Shut down the Department of Education and other agencies. That's good. Fire most federal bureaucrats and have I think he wants to have an eight year term limits on all government bureaucrats. And he says this is just the beginning. He's got lots of other, but then he says things like, so that's the good stuff. And it's not just good, it's very good stuff, right? It's radical, it's dramatic, it's big, it's country changing in a positive way, not a negative way. And he says this in an articulate way and a passionate, super charismatic. I've seen him up on stage, not live, but on video. He is super charismatic. You want to look at this guy, you want to listen to this guy, you want to pay attention to what he's saying. And then, but this is the stuff I don't like, right? Use military force, the military, to secure the border. So obviously he's anti-immigration in some significant way. How much I don't know yet, we'll find out. But this one is ridiculous and decimate the drug cartels. One of the things he's really running on is, I think Trump has mentioned this, we should use the American military to crush the drug cartels. In other words, we should send the military into Mexico and we should wipe them all out. We should kill them all, we should have a thing and we should get really, really, really, really tough on drug dealers and drug smugglers and drugists. So sadly, he would continue, enhance, put on steroids the war on drugs, which I think is a massive mistake and very, very, very unfortunate. But, you know, this is his tagline on his website. Capitalist, capitalist, proud capitalist, that's pretty good. Capitalist and citizen on a mission to revive excellence in American life. That's pretty good. You know, so, while I would love, I would love to, you know, I'd love to be able to see more from him. I hope he makes that up on the stage in the debates and articulates these arguments and gives some energy and he'll be the only charismatic guy on the stage. And, you know, really, you know, create some dynamism on stage. So I encourage you to follow Vivek Ramaswamy. Again, some of his views, I think his views on free speech are bad, his views, I think he wants to make political speech a civil right, which means force, use the government force to force the digital media, to force them to allow all political speech on their platform. In other words, to deny them free speech. I think on a number of issues, he's probably very bad. This idea of going to war with the drug cartels is a really, really bad idea. But on other things, he's super good. And if he can bring that energy and these ideas onto the Republican stage and force them to talk about it and force a dialogue about actual ideas and some of which are very good ideas, I could really change the dynamics of the election. So I'm rooting for Vivek. I'm rooting for him to be on stage. I'm rooting for him to have the opportunity to express these ideas to the national audience and to force the Republicans, if you will, to confront and deal with his ideas and confront and deal with all of these things. So that is my, that's Vivek. So those are my two, yeah, that's it. Let's see, what do we want to do now? Yeah, as Moislav says on the chat, Vivek was actually on Alex Epstein's power hour. And look, I'm not endorsing Vivek. I just want him on stage. I want him to bring that excitement to the stage. But I'm not endorsing him, but at least when it comes to energy, it seems clear that he's been influenced by Alex and on other issues. It's almost like he read maybe my state of the union address and has taken some ideas from there. I don't think he has. Maybe he's heard some of my talks on capitalism. I would not be surprised at all if he has heard my morality of capitalism talk or my inequality talk or any of my other talks. So I'd be surprised if he hadn't. I think a lot of people have listened to those talks, heard those talks on YouTube. Thank you for listening or watching the Iran Book Show.
