Due to Donald Trump's decision not to participate in the Republican primary debate, other candidates have gained an opportunity to shine. One of the only women in the race, Nikki Haley, will be on stage to contrast herself with the other candidates.
With a strong background in foreign policy, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is expected to talk about her immigrant background and her experience as an ambassador and governor. She will also discuss her vision for the country and her approach to addressing the issue of China. As a conservative, it is great to see a woman like Haley on the debate stage.

Although he is a relatively unknown candidate, Indian-American businessman Vivek Ramaswamy is expected to benefit from the debates. He is comfortable in the spotlight and can make provocative and strong arguments. His independent wealth can also help him stand out from the rest of the field. Unlike other candidates, he can speak without the influence of super PACs and big donors.
It's possible that he can create a breakout moment in the debate, as his off-the cuff style and candid nature could resonate with conservative voters.
Tim Scott of South Carolina is expected to deliver a positive and uplifting message during the debate. He will talk about how progress has been made in the country and how he is not an anomaly among African-Americans. His campaign hopes that his message will resonate with voters.
It's refreshing to see candidates such as Scott Walker, who are reaching out to Christians and evangelicals, promoting principles that are aligned with their values. These statements show that conservative beliefs can coexist with a hopeful message. The debate provides an opportunity for the other candidates to make their case to voters undecided by showcasing their capabilities.
