Presidential Hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy Shares Vision for Administrative State
At a New Hampshire town hall on July 20, Vivek Ramaswamy, a candidate for president, captivated the audience with his vision for the administrative state.
Ramaswamy made a grand entrance on stage at Saint Anselm College’s New Hampshire Institute of Politics, accompanied by the energetic sounds of Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town.”
The music video for Aldean’s song had faced controversy and was pulled from the air by Country Music Television. However, Ramaswamy chose the song to emphasize the importance of freedom of expression.
In his speech, Ramaswamy highlighted the need for individuals to freely express their thoughts and opinions in public, whether they are artists, parents, or corporate executives.
