Woman Asks How Will A Hindu President Lead the US. Ramaswamy Responds
Des Moines, Iowa: Vivek Ramaswamy said that he will stand for the Judeo-Christian values based on which the US was founded and spreading Christianity was not the US President’s job.
When an audience member present at the CNN Town Hall event held in the city of Des Moines, capital of Iowa, asked how a Hindu President would lead the United States, 38-year-old biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy elaborated on the similarities rather than the differences.
On Wednesday (local time), Ramaswamy, who was present at Des Moines’s Grand View University, told the audience member that even if he does not share the same religion as US’ founding fathers, he integrates certain aspects of his Hindu faith with Judeo-Christian values.
“(What is your response to those who believe you) cannot be our president (because your religion) is not what our founding fathers based our country on,” Mitchell asked.
“I respectfully disagree. My faith teaches me that God puts each of us here for a purpose. That we have a moral duty to realise that purpose. That God works through us in different ways, but we’re still equal, because God resides in each of us,” Ramaswamy said in response.
