Just kidding. C'mon. Why not pass on a little Christmas cheer.

Christmas cheer? We already have a thread about skipping to the New Year started by a Christian!

There is no Christmas cheer on INGO!

Anyway, @KG1, you're welcome.

I see another payback checkmark on this post.

Are you guys what they call influencers?

I've seen this before. He was quite impressive in that speech he gave.

I've seen this before. He was quite impressive in that speech he gave.

Kind of a yawner though. As most of those speeches are. It’s like if a sports car could talk, and a Corvette z06 is on the truck headed to a dealer. He talks about the future on the road before he’s even experienced it. He’s got the pedigree but he doesn’t know **** except what he’s been taught.

Valedictorians are smart and they have the pedigree to be successful. They all talk with enthusiasm about the future. It’s unknown until they experience it.

This video helped me recognize what I couldn’t put my finger on about Vivek. He speaks like a valedictorian who has the kind of optimism of unearned faith in the future. He’s only 37.

I think the point of the post is that he's no phony "johnnie come lately." He still exhibits the same core that guides him that he spoke of back then.

 

[jamil]

Well that was probably unnecessarily critical. He doesn’t just speak about the future. He also talks about issues and solutions. I can see why he appeals to young conservatives. One, they don’t know **** about life either, but also some of the old ways that probably hurt more than help conservatives today, they’re ready to move on from. And Vivek is the one talking about it. I do think now that he’s sincere about being pro-American. At 50 he could make a great President.

I think if Trump were as smart and as articulate as Vivek, he wouldn’t make the mistakes that he has.

 

[KG1]

Oh and one other thing. "Valedictorians are smart."

I knew there was a reason why I wasn't a Valedictorian. I just wasn't smart enough to figure out why.

Valedictorian us simply the first step of indoctrination into credentialism. ...which ain't even a word according to my spellchecker phone

 

[jamil]

Me either.

Hey, don't judge me for my lack of "credentialism"

Obviously your spellchecker phone doesn't have the credentials to spell check all the werds.

I was going to have something witty and sarcastic to say but I just finished my daily readings which had tese words.

Brethren, be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

I will have to wait an hour or so until I forget I read them.

A whole hour? Your memory is better than mine.

Will you alert us when your break from politics is over? It so hard to tell when it started and when will end!

If everything is political (as seems to be the case) then nothing is, and his break has been and will be without limit

 

[BugI02]

We'll see if he can learn the lesson DeSantis couldn't. Vice President first, because we overwhelmingly want Trump to finish what he started, then take up the torch as president in 2028 (and maybe '32 if you walk the walk)

Well, he's already wealthy by his own efforts in business. Seems his faith in America is justified

Edit: And the Z06 doesn't even know yet that it will be bought by some fat guy in his late 50s whose days of wildness behind the wheel, if he ever had any, are long past

Ramaswamy, says he isn't interested in a VP offer. Wonder if he's only saying that now because he's still running for POTUS and would change his tune after his bid for the nomination doesn't materialize

“Frankly, I’d drive change through the private sector sooner than becoming number two or three in the federal government.”
