Default Newt as President? HA HA

You say that Newt Gingrich is qualified to be President? Well, he is over 35 years old and is a natural citizen of the USA so he legally is qualified to be President.

Just go back to 1995 and remember what Gingrich did to the USA. He was Speaker of the House and did not allow the funding of the Federal Government to continue. This set forth furloughs for all non-essential employees of agencies that had not received budgets at that time. The furloughs lasted a total of 4 weeks. Employees did not know if they were going to get pay for that time. It ended up on Jan. 7, 1996, that employees were allowed to return to their jobs and all did get paid for that entire time period - which cost about $400 million.

Newt Gingrich resigned from Congress under a cloud of shame. This was due to many factors including his attempts at having Bill Clinton impeached. Americans were fed up with Gingrich.

Newt never could be elected President. Republicans are too smart to have him as their candidate. Palin is just as un-electable. Put in some Republican like Mitt Romney and they will have a good chance.
