Other Republican contenders like Perry Johnson have also vowed to pardon the former president.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Earlier this month, Ramaswamy gained some praise after a video went viral of him engaging with a protester who interrupted his Iowa event. After the woman turned to leave after interrupting his remarks, Ramaswamy offered for her to come back to ask a question.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a division in our country and I think people are hungry to start talking openly again, and I think Vivek has a unique skill that he\u2019s able to really lead people and rally people around what this country was founded upon, which is free speech, which is an open debate,\u201d said Ramaswamy campaign senior adviser Tricia McLaughlin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that\u2019s what not only the GOP electorate is hungry for, but I think independents and even disaffected Democrats,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>National polling, too, suggests voters are starting to give Ramaswamy a serious look.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A RealClearPolitics polling average shows Ramaswamy placing third at 5.4 percent, behind Trump in first place with 52.4 percent and DeSantis at 18.4 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Still, most national polls show the biotech entrepreneur in the single digits compared to Trump, who remains the front-runner in surveys. Some early state polls in New Hampshire and South Carolina show Ramaswamy trailing some of the other GOP candidates, such as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen. Tim Scott (S.C.).<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr4_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Republicans also acknowledge more GOP voters will start to tune into the primary around next month\u2019s debate in Milwaukee and note there\u2019s still months to go until the first early states\u2019 primaries.<\/p>\n<p>Not all Republicans are buying the Ramaswamy hype. GOP pollster and consultant Whit Ayres said the GOP millennial is \u201cnot a serious contender for the presidency\u201d and waved off Ramaswamy\u2019s recent polling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a sign just like Herman Cain caught something in 2011 and Ben Carson caught something in 2015 and Andrew Yang caught something in 2020,\u201d Ayres said, referring to presidential candidates who <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>eared to have momentum at one point in their primary before sputtering out.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr5_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>New Hampshire-based strategist Matthew Bartlett similarly suggested that Ramaswamy doesn\u2019t have a viable path to the presidency. Putting it bluntly, Bartlett said, \u201cNo one is expecting him to win,\u201d and he said he didn\u2019t see Ramaswamy going after the former president in the primary but was \u201clooking to cozy up to Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis campaign was not looking to end up in the Oval Office. His campaign was to promote himself and to some degree, his ideas and articulate that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>But that hasn\u2019t stopped members of the party from suggesting that Ramaswamy could have a bright future ahead, saying he could run for Senate, be picked for a presidential cabinet position or even selected as someone\u2019s running mate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr6_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s so many people even after the Family Leadership Summit [who] said, \u2018Boy, what a young, positive, inspirational guy. He has a bright future. He\u2019d be good in somebody\u2019s cabinet. He might be a vice president,&#8217;\u201d explained Bob Vander Plaats, president and CEO of the influential Family Leader in Iowa.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis biggest hurdle right now is crossing that threshold where people say, \u2018No, I think he can be president.\u2019 So he\u2019s gotten a lot of people excited about his candidacy. Now he needs to make that transition: \u2018Now they can see me be president,&#8217;\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Ramaswamy for his part has previously said he\u2019s not interested in being a vice presidential pick or taking a cabinet position, saying he\u2019d return to the private sector instead if he didn\u2019t win the GOP presidential primary. But his campaign argues he shouldn\u2019t be underestimated.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr7_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cI think Vivek has already done what everyone said he couldn\u2019t do. The fact that he is beating \u2026 the most former vice president, multiple governors, the former U.N. ambassador, a sitting senator \u2026 four or five months ago, no one knew who Vivek Ramaswamy is,\u201d McLaughlin, the senior Ramaswamy campaign adviser, said. \u201cAnd now he\u2019s third in national polls. That in itself is meteoric.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republican strategists, too, say that while Trump is still the front-runner in the primary, a strong showing in Iowa can help galvanize a candidate heading into the next few states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wouldn\u2019t count anyone out that\u2019s coming in the top three in Iowa,\u201d said GOP strategist Alice Stewart, who\u2019s an alum of multiple presidential campaigns. \u201cAnd the objective of Iowa has never been to choose the party nominee, it\u2019s to winnow the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar Media Inc.
