Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.

I could listen to this man for hours. Such clarity of thought and vision.
Same. I have listened to him for hours today ... multiple interviews. Phenomenal depth in the Jordan Peterson 96min interview.
Exactly! I have been binge watching his videos the past week and am still hungry for more lol
Same here. Not a day I wouldn't try to find a new speech or interview of him!
He has abundant vocabularies yet he is logical and practical, which attracts ppl who hunger for intellectual stimulations, also dangerous if this set of skills betrayed the ppl . The extreme example is Germans , back then Germany while nation was convinced and worshiped his logics
I'm voting for Vivek in the 2024 primaries.
He spoke over 35 min. without notes or teleprompter. Wow!
That is because he believes what he says so does not need speaker aids and artifacts
You kidding me… I have seen his 75 minutes video as keynote speaker at Missouri
His speech does not change or waiver no matter where he is speaking. This is the way he feels and he tells you that.
Imagine Joe Biden even attempting to debate Vivek Ramaswamy. It would be a verbal massacre.
Lol. Sooo true.
Not Joe Biden but Kamala Harris
😂
Oh he could outsmart a demented old man? Weird flex but okay
What about AdrenachomeJoe? Puffy and red like a well fed vampire. He could do it!
This man is a breath of fresh air. Degrees in molecular biology and law, hedge fund manager who then set up a biotech business and an investment business, intelligent, hard-working, articulate, high moral values and he has a vision. An outstanding young candidate. If he cannot get the nomination for 2024, then he must try again in 2028 and 2032. He would run rings around the other candidates in debates. Let's hope he stays safe. America and the world face so many challenges now, this is the calibre of man that is needed to lead the western democracies (which of course aren't very democratic any more). Wishing him every success. From a fan in the UK.
Vivek is a breath of fresh air. He makes so much sense and such clarity. He's like a balm for the brain.
‘A balm for the brain’ 🧠❤️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I couldn’t of said it better myself!
Vote 🗳️ for this man. He is the savior of America 🇺🇸.
I have no words to express Mr. Vivek’s speech but to say “. 🙏👏👏🙏. The new Generation wants people like you to Lead America. May God Bless You🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank God for this GIANT among men and the Hope that he brings to our country and the restoration possible
Please don't just listen to this as a presidential candidate.
This speech goes much much deeper. It's one American to another American. It's what we can accomplish but we must wake up.
I wish him well and may GOD bless.
❤❤
He's a very good speaker. I get it. He's fighting for America's soul and identity. He diagnosed a lot of the partisan divisions correctly. There's an imbalance in our society where the binary thinking of Oppressor vs Oppressed permeates nearly every dialogue. I don't agree with all of his positions but I applaud his effort. There is a hunger for an outsider to shake things up in favor for the Common Citizen. Trump tried but didn't drain the swamp. He filled it with his own stooges. Culturally he won plenty hearts and minds but majority of Americans still live paycheck to paycheck and most have no emergency funds. Citizens continue to face bankruptcy when faced with a large medical bill. No Medicare4All. Scarcity prevails. Vivek's answer to deal with the erosion of our safety nets is "economic growth" and no increase in payroll taxes to keep it buoyant. Work, work, work, work-life balance be damned. When politicians don't want to deal with class issues, they engage in culture wars. Divide and conquer. I can't vote for Vivek for president. He's no FDR. Not even Henry Wallace. I can vote for Vivek for Senate or Representative. He would do better there than the White House.
VIVEK 2024 🎉🇺🇸❤️💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
One of the qualities I admire most in a person, and especially a person who is running for elected office, is being a GREAT speaker. Great speakers need no teleprompters, nor multiple pages of notes to read from. Great speakers need no cues from which to speak because they SPEAK FROM THE HEART. When you're speaking from the heart, the mind is not burdened with trying to remember what you're going to say, or what order to say it in.
I get the impression that Vivek Ramaswamy is definitely speaking from his heart, and I think he is a GREAT speaker, and an absolute pleasure to watch and listen to.
The last time I saw a speaker this effective, was (unfortunately) bill clinton, and before him, Ronald Reagan.Brilliant speech from a remarkably talented speaker. So far, Vivek Ramaswamy has my vote for POTUS 2024, hands down.
An absolutely spot-on, brilliant speech. So far, Vivek Ramaswamy has my vote for POTUS 2024, hands down.
He reminds me of JFK !!!!!!!
I agree🎉 🎉🎉 all the way
National treasure
If only he could have a stint as president like jin ping or Putin- the USA 🇺🇸 and the world I believe would prosper to unprecedented heights
100% the future of the GOP and the man to bring back American values. Who best to speak on this but a 1st generation American 👊🏼😎
Has my vote all the way
Mine also!!!!!
My dream is to see Vivek, Trump, DeSantis and other brave Americans leaders working together in a powerful strategy to dismantle the establishment and also to crush Marxism in America once and for all.
We will need to crush Hinduism too, which is South-Asian dirty religion, unfit in white America!
Finally someone else with some sense! Have a great American day!
👏 👏 👏
You can have Trump, I’ll take the other two
Agree. But don't just dream. Do whatever you can to help make that happen.
He is my number choice for Republican primaries. I hope he is our nominee. The Clarity we need, he has it.
Do we have a Brown MLK ??!! 😉 he got the whole package to be a modernday MLK!!👍The guy's on fire ... passionate !! An amazing orator ... brilliant man ... with strong family / faith values ... MUCH MUCH needed in this nation today !! Let's goooo Vivek !!
This man is impressive
Vivek, Your insights and verbal abilities and American patriotism make you a fantastic citizen of such value to the American people. Thank you, my friend.
Brilliant and visionary! God bless Vivek!
You say anything negative about him they will remove it
@@My2CentsYall There is nothing negative about him to say!
He doesn’t want anything removed. That’s what’s dope about him. He’s freakin’ FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
Oh wow... I feel so hopeful. He's saying all the things that are so concerning to me. Same age as my kids.... which I think will resonate with them.
Sir, you are the voice of reason and hope that so many if us are desperate for, in this nation that has lost its way. Godspeed!
Very impressive. USA needs a paradigm change in their Presidential probables. Vivek Ramaswamy seems to be whom USA cud do with at this stage in its journey.
VIVA VIVEK!!! The new slogan for your campaign Sir! You got my vote and my respect
Just the bold leader and defender of the Republic we need now and in the future.
They don't like spanish people ither.
DUDE WHO CAN TALK BETTER THAN HIM ON ANY PARTY PERIOD. ZERO PEOPPLE
I love this guy! So much charisma with a clear and concise message. Please stay in this fight!
Absolutely brilliant !!! If this VR isn’t the “smartest guy in the room” please someone tell me who is. Clearly, he is light years ahead of every politician in America. 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
I just became a HUGE fan of this guy! More common sense than you can shake a stick at!
An Indian leading Britain. An Indian potentially president of the USA … h’m.
The satanic Woke also work in mysterious ways, it seems.
Why are there no dynamic white leaders arising, or on the horizon all of a sudden ?
Don’t dismiss this, think.
I’m black, btw.
The Woke are the the endtime antichrist movement, the 666. And the ones they are most desirous of subduing are Christians … and white Christians are the most powerful, so they seem to be striking at their confidence through both blunt and finesse ways. This tearing up of non Caucasian prominents seem to be of the latter type.
I’m pretty convinced of that.
The Woke are not going to be defeated but by the Lord’s Second Coming. Prophecy states that.
Wish you all the best 💚🙂
He is getting my vote. Vivek 2024
I think that the perfect WINNING TEAM ticket is: Trump for President and Vivek Ramaswamy for Vice President
I was just wondering how we got to this point where leftism is so pervasive in big business and wow, Vivek summarizes it so well
My question is why isn’t he receiving pushback from the MSNBCs and the CNNs like DeSantis, for example ?
@@gherieg.1091 why do you include DeSantis in there
@@pumitriii6160
I cited him as an example. My point is that all dissenters to the Woke senseless tyranny are demonized and attacked by the left.
So why isn’t Vivek being targeted ?
Looks fishy, don’t you think.
Tim pool first made me aware of the hijacking of the occupy movement as someone who was on the ground and saw groups proposing identity politics getting heavily funded that made him realize that the movement was being co opted
It happened over time. The Democrats/liberals removed God, the pledge of legions, and in some cases our flag from our schools. They taught our kids to hate America and our flag, said that we are a racist nation. As someone who served our country, its disgusting what they've done!
His name has a meaning in Sanskrit,
Vivek = Wise, judicious, knowledgable
So apt for him!
Vivek means Conscience
I love this man we need more politicians like him
Hey brother, just saw you on Meet the Press Now. Very good points. Great candidate.
very articulate and intelligent. this guy is going to be big .
You speak the truth. I’d support you. But you are fighting the system. It’ll be a long hard road ahead.
One of the greatest speeches I've heard since Reagan.
@googlenazicompany5935 no he wouldn't.
@@amytownley9738 he (Regan) would be considered a white racist.
He admires Reagan greatly
Even if he doesn't get nominated, i want him to go all the way till the very end of debates.
Plus, he deserves speech time at the convention.
I would definitely support him for President in 28. Would also support him if he were to be selected as VP IN 24.
Totally agree. He can make great waves by putting his idea into the public forum.
Such clarion clarity I haven't heard in at least 65 years!!! Absolutely accurate!!!!
It's pleasure listening to hik
The first time I've ever heard of him was on a podcast that I followed for 2 years (Valuetainment), about a month ago. After the episode was over I was utterly astounded by his visions and opinions. He was by far the SHARPEST guest I've watched on the pod and liked him very much. After his announcement to run for President this week, I bought a book that he wrote just to see how deep this guy can go, and so far he's the guy I'd vote next year (that is, if the dems can't bring anyone refreshing who can stand with the People instead being a donors and special interest groups' boy). America needs a total shakeup in its political systems, and we need someone like him to lead, not another bureaucratic lunatic who plays its citizens for fools.
I've never voted Republican in my life but my plan as of today is to vote for Mr. Ramaswamy. He is exactly what America needs right now
I very much wonder what could prompt you to vote democrat at this point at all.
@@HHSMCJROTC So far, Marianne is the only good contender.
VIVEK 2024 🎉🇺🇸❤️ I prefer an intellectual w/ communication grace who can educate while leading. He’s FIRE🔥 After listening to his podcasts, I’m finally inspired and excited to participate as a proud American. Let’s UNITE based on CHARACTER rather than just the tone of our skin, our gender, our sexuality, or religion. I believe VIVEK can make this dream real
Gosh.. this man articulates so perfectly what is going on with so much elegance and integrity. What a gem.
Thank you for this video. ...so after words and info were relayed by Vivek, what needs to be done by Americans. Hearts must be changed for the good.
Very impressed with this man.
Such an impressive and courageous man
Vivek is a genius
Finally a courageous and intelligent candidate that can articulate with depth the importance of maintaining American Sovereignty. He pulls no punches in his opposition to globalists in both parties. He will raise the standard of political discussion and debate by leaps and bounds. The administrative state must be dismantled and simplified. Let's work together to get his voice heard and part the waters of the establishment to give this man a chance.
Tim Pool had it right when he said Trump will be the nominee because the Republicans cannot survive if they don't nominate him, Vivek will get the Democrat treatment from the Don, I like Vivek more than Trump tbh but I know that Trump will be on the ballot period.
They all start off with wonderful words, like obama,
@@lorismith2354 you have zero discernment if you can't tell the difference between Vivek and Obama. Obama used slogans that he never explained, thereby obfuscating his intent. Vivek explains in great depth what he means. He uses the history of the ideas that America was founded upon. Obama hated those ideas and wanted to replace them with neo-Marxist ideas. Don't believe me? Go study it for yourself. Enjoy!
Wow, he can articulate, so did obama, he will be brought like the rest. Can you imagine then letting this man go far.
He won't be president in 2024 anyway.
The best line was when he spoke about declaring independence from China. Yes! We need to do that.
@googlenazicompany5935 it's not his fault that the boomers failed to protect our country. He's 37. You can't run for President until age 35. He's been saying this for years. He built a company just to fight esg. What have you done?
@googlenazicompany5935 it's never to late.
The US promotes all these free trade policies so companies can up their profit margins, willfully hands its manufacturing base to China, then turns around and blames China for all its problems.
@jake8855 that's not what we are blaming China for.
@amytownley9738 Ooo, you dropped a "we." Are you a spokeswoman for someone? Anyway, that's what plenty of people here ARE blaming China for. What is your beef with China then? The Uighers?
The guy is so clear-headed. Just came here to check him out as he announced his run for US President
Good luck to him !
This man was born to create history.
sadly I dont think this man will get the recognition he DESERVES. I hope so I will be voting for him. I think hes teh only one who can keep our faith in our house holds
This man is persuing the right approach of reaching voters by making speeches everywhere he is invited. He has a large platform and can only do this in a field like this. He will not have the amount of time he needs in a debate, although he will do well. Hats off to this man for his insperation and knowledge. Good job.
He speaks the truth from his experience and heart (not even notes) that cannot be understood by the irrational liberal mind.
@Google Sucks Ass My firm belief is that this all has to do with invisible demonic spiritual powers working in those who are receptive to them.
Obama speaked the truth when he was talking also.
I donate to Hillsdale College once a month and it is worth far more than my donation
There are legitimate charities that need your money more
Goosebumps my friend. Vivek is pure courage, intellect, and strength. I’m joining this guy wherever he goes, might just join his new company. Read his books. He is right over the target. Keep firing, we need your relentless focus and clarity.
- What we do in life, echoes in eternity.
America is not done yet.
Haha, what a hokey suck up that was.
I'd come back to the U.S right now and work for you.
Awesome speech
He finally said it meritocracy of immigration
Vivek's commitment to eliminate the Department of Education
and to look closely at a laundry list of other things the federal
government does with a goal of eliminating many of them caused
this thought to enter my head:
As he fleshes out these ideas during his campaign, I would like
for him to write another book. He has the solid credentials to
write a book that covers in great detail everything the federal
government does that is not authorized in the Constitution.
If anyone has already written such a book, I have not been able
to find it.
If that book gets written, I will buy it and make gifts of it to my
friends and family. Furthermore, if wishing could make it so, then
high schoolers would have to master this book in order to graduate.
Vivek Ramaswamy for President in 2028. By my calculation he will be old enough by then. I hope I live long enough to vote for him. He articulates the America I always supported as the ideal.
He's old enough now, and is running in 2024.
@@posthawk1393 Thank you for the correction. I went to Article II and saw it is 35 years-old to qualify for President. I thought it was 42, probably because I remember Kennedy was questioned if he was experienced enough to run for President. I think he was 42 at the time. His candidacy was portrayed as being on the cusp of eligibility.
@@joecanis484 Ah, I see. I'm excited for this guy to run. He probably won't go far as he doesn't have name recognition, but he's the type of leader we need.
@@posthawk1393 Acquiring name recognition begins with a first attempt at running for office. Vivek will impress everyone when he debates the average candidate that is running on his/her ego and not on merit.
He's old enough now. Where did you learn civics? Maybe you should sue them for maleducation.
A measured, inspiring bright leader! Hear Hear Sir. I pray you lead our Nation one day, sooner than later. You were made for a time such as this! God's speed 🇺🇲
Fk no
A product of the system. The foreign policy says it all “ creat another enemy and war”, China
vivek #1 presidential candidate 2024 regardless of the results.
The perfect winning team ticket is: Trump for President and Vivek Ramaswamy for Vice President.
@@jenniewalsh8023 imo vivek is much more of a real stud, the reason people thought trump was a joke was because people like vivek truly do exist.
fyi im a liberal obama voter and im votign trump if hes the candidate, although im rooting for vivek #1 currently
"There's more to life than self indulgence. There's more to do in life than figuring out our gender."
Amongst many, this hits home.
This guy is great 👏
I want him for a President. Such a brilliant mind!
I love this guy, intelligent and eloquent
This is definitely a presidential speech. I'm listening.
Yip .. the guy is brilliant .. really brilliant ..
@Troy Hailey Ohio is his birth place 💀u know Ohio 😏
@Troy Hailey His accent sounds Russian. He's must be a Russian agent right dumb dumb
@Troy Hailey Uh, yes.
@Troy Hailey you mean like obozo dumb dumb
Intelligence flows from this man
YOU’VE GOT MY VOTE 💯
Great speech 👍
So.... everyone commenting... heres a new challenge... forward this video to someone and encourage them to do the same... get his name out there... if youre speaking to a millenial, present him as a millenial, when talking to a liberal, present him as someone who makes sense, when talking to a conservative, present him as a fresh option. Lets get this guy out there!
I will post it !
He sounds like Reagan,,, very well done!
Vote Vivek Ramaswamy 2024 🇺🇲 🇺🇲 👍👍
Yes. Speech content is on point and well articulated. True American in every sense of being. Thank You
I see this man running for public office. He has leadership, his ideas are right on - the search for meaning, for purpose. He and Victor Davis Hanson are on the same page.
There's no question this guy is brilliant.
Amen...thiis guy is a great speaker! Maybe even better than Reagan! His ideals, ideas, promises, prospects...wow just WOW
His vocabulary 100 times more than Trump’s and 1000 times more than Joe’s 😅
Beautiful. The vision and ambition speak to an informed revival of patriotism and a brighter future.
This young man is great. Keep going!
I am from India & I am proud that the colour of my skin is like that of Ramaswamy.
He is articulate & highly rational.
There should be determination to excell in whatever one has opted as the subject or topic of your education combined with a determination to become a good human being.
India has the World's Largest population of Young people, who have a great potential to change India towards Prosperity & Welfare.
My Best Wishes to the Students & the Presidential Candidate from " Oh high Oh " ( Ohio) Vivek Ramaswamy with a prominent ' I ' in his first Name , who is young & forward looking, for good relationship with 'I'ndia & it's young students for bringing a Better World Order.
Best Wishes
Shyam Nagarmat
I love what he has said! I'm going to follow and learn more about who he is. So refreshing and very happy to agree with him. I listened to him and never rolled my eyes or walked away to lower my blood pressure !
To achieve the ideal of truth, justice, and merit in US society and governance that Mr. Ramaswamy extols requires the implementation of a kind of electro-shock treatment on the nation as a whole.
He would make an interesting candidate.
Yes! Vivek defines "first-generation American." He is one--the natural-born US citizen of immigrant parents. Like my father (born 1921) whose parents immigrated separately from Italy in the 1900s.
Lately, some commenters have called the immigrant parents "first-generation."
That's one fiery speech in which Vivek has hit all nails on their heads!! He is POTUS material for sure!
Very well said
Oh, wow...this wouldn't go over in all but a handful of universities in America these days. I hear a lot of people brave enough to speak of these things but no one seems able to put these ideas into action. Will enough people agree and force change? It depends upon how bad things get for each individual in the coming years. It will be an interesting decade to come no doubt.
I agree that the individual is the best single definition of sovereignty, but the "unum-ness" of common principles and culture carries a nation. So, I don't think we can depend solely on each individual. We need broad inclusion (the old, liberal kind; not the new woke kind) to make a nation as provided in the constitution.
It may be the individuals who seek the "liberation" from national and social constraints, such as lawfulness and responsibility, who currently have the "authority," but I find their bent for constitutional destruction to be emotional, mob-like, and ignorant of the consequences.
It makes me feel like I get goosebumps on my body! I love how he talks about his experience and opinion for This grand national!I God bless you. love it!!
Love this guy. Thank you!
This guy will beat the Rock in 2028 Presidential Elections!
Great speech.
Excellent
I wish I went to Hillsdale
I also wish I would have gone to Hillsdale.
If wishes were horses , beggars would ride.
Do an online course & be more involved with supporting them!
Don't wish-- do, unless you think this guy's message is bllsht
He reminds me the late Ravi Zachariah who pass away 3 years ago. Ravi Zachariah was also of Indian decent and very intelligent and he has a hint of Tucker Carlson the way he just talk to the audience and gets their attention. I like him
He’s hitting all the most important things, I like this guy
This is a mind-blowing speech.
He’s speaking like our founding fathers. a second generation american making the rest of the npc’s look like….npc’s…😂
Vivek 2024!
ON BOARD!!!
“Different colored group of mammals” is my new favorite phrase, it’s a far more scientific statement than (insert color) person
I Would Not Describe Vivek As Rebellious!❤
Great analysis!
What a fantastic speech. Tha man has a gift. Too bad he won’t be president any time soon. I would vote for him in a heartbeat
That's what "they" said about JFK !!!
@@arlenefisher1164 I hope I’m wrong! Get out and vote in the primary. I got a feeling he is vying for vice prez on Trumps ticket, which I’d gladly vote for as well.
