It would be great to have a President who is articulate about America, our history and conservative values again, especially in the face of the all out progressive socialism/liberalism the dems and rinos have shackled us with.
I don't know if that person is Newt Gingrich or not, but I'm willing to hear him out and give him a chance to change my opinion one way or another.
I remember the glory days of the Reagan Revolution and long for a return to a better way. Newt was a part of it and knows how it's done.
“I don’t know if that person is Newt Gingrich or not, but I’m willing to hear him out and give him a chance to change my opinion one way or another.”
That is my stance also along with some of the other candidates. I want to hear the candidates out unlike some others here are Free Republic.
Newt is actually fun to listen to. He is glib and articulate and knows a lot about a lot of things, including things not related to politics.
He has a million ideas and would implement some good ones and some bad ones.
I’ll take him over the others, but Rick Perry is the best candidate running. He does have the occasional pause and an ‘uh’ here and there, but we know what he would do because he’s done it in Texas.
If you haven’t seen these - I think you will find them informative - for a starter.
This was in 2009, BTW

and there’s always his current web site -
these just scratch the surface.
I was where you are now a few weeks back....not sure now why I began to look closer except in the debates he addressed issues head on....he WANTS this Presidency and after investigating Newt's past it's clear that he means business about ousting Obama and changing the trajectory this nation is on.
When his campaign seemed to be falling apart he rose above it and just kept on keeping on.....now that's a victory in itself and against all odds. That also got my attention...he's a fighter and willing to do so and that's what our nation needs. It clearly showed he means business.
I'm tired of people who want the title of President but unwilling to develope a convincing plan, and in many cases no plan at all.....Newt's got them and putting them out there for us to see...like it or not....he's going for this and that fully armed.....I want someone to fight for this nation, Newt will do that...I am convinced.
