In case anyone is wondering, Ramaswamy is just another in a long line of the Republican history.
During the primary season you'll see rumblings of support for a relatively unknown and minority candidate for Republicans. Herman Cain was their last one. He's dead now, they needed a new one. Ramaswamy is it.
The only reason he's talked about at all is so they set themselves up to later claim, "see we're not racist! We almost elected this guy!". The reality is this guy, nor Cain, ever stood a chance. Whether or not they realize that and play their role anyway would be the thing to know.
