No way I'm voting for Ramaswamy. He's skinfolk, but so not our kinfolk | Opinion

An opinion piece published Wednesday argues that Vivek Ramaswamy, the Indian American Republican presidential candidate, does not represent the interests of Black Americans despite sharing a similar skin tone.

The writer states, "He's skinfolk, but so not our kinfolk," suggesting that racial appearance alone does not create political alignment.

The column criticizes Ramaswamy's policy positions and rhetoric, asserting they are out of step with the priorities of the Black community.

The author concludes that shared pigmentation is insufficient grounds for voting support, urging readers to look beyond surface-level identity.
