But Calderon was not so much a moderator as an opponent, firing off loaded questions about immigration that sounded like they’d been drafted by the Democratic National Committee.his opposition to the “birthright citizenship” interpretation of the 14th Amendment — which says children of illegal immigrants automatically get US citizenship just by being born here — she framed her question as a gotcha, asking Ramaswamy on what grounds he would “expel legal citizens.
The standards, like birthright citizenship, are fair game. The way these and other questions were set up by Calderon, however, typically assumed wrongdoing or ill intentions on the part of the candidate.For Ramaswamy all publicity is good publicity — he’s a longshot candidate with nothing to lose and plenty of name recognition to gain. He’s smart, telegenic and provocative. Taking part in the debates makes sense for him., too.
