Why Newt?

America offers great hope for those who believe that the world is a very dangerous place and rightly so, as it was America that had led the world out of the shadows of Communism. Today however, partisan bickering in Washington, DC is at an all time high! This has severely hindered our great country from becoming the shining beacon against the ever-growing threat from those that would see our nation destroyed. Extreme Partisanship has also left our government in a very anemic state where mismanagement, as seen from the recent Hurricane Katrina fiasco, where local, state and federal did not work together. If we continue on this path, events like these will become all the more commonplace in the future.

We need change. We cannot let ennui and those who are slaves to the status quo of politics enthrall our nation and our ideology any longer. We need a fresh voice to lead the Republican Party.

We need someone who understands the issues, who can communicate them effectively and who can unite us under the beliefs of our naturally conservative society, where large percentages of America's majority agree.

We need someone who is not beholden to special interests but, at the same time understands government well enough to get things done. We need a person of ideas but also a person of ideology, of ideas that will persist after he is gone and into the future.

We need Newt Gingrich.

From his earliest days in Congress, Newt Gingrich has thought the big picture. He has been a man who has dared to dream. And as a member of Congress, he taught many of us to challenge the status quo. Republicans wouldn't have gained the majority in 1994 without him. We lost that majority this November; why? We strayed from our principles, the very principles we adhered to when a man from Georgia was our voice, our Speaker. Its time for Conservatives to regain America's trust and regain the majority. It is time for us to win the future. It is time to Draft Newt. It is time to make him our President.

It's been ten years since anything truly great has been accomplished in Washington. Isn't it time we desire more from the current group? Isn't it time to demand the money that we send to Washington be better spent?

In the tradition of the Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan Presidential campaigns, we believe our grassroots draft campaign will have a powerful effect. This is because in the past-both the Goldwater and Reagan campaigns started from nationwide draft movements.

All signs indicate that Speaker Gingrich is committed to playing a role in the 2008 election because he knows there are big ideas that need real solutions.

Supporting this effort means that you support the need for solutions. It means you support solutions to energy, solutions to the environment, solutions to the economy, solutions to education and solutions to national security.

We have real challenges. We have a wonderful country that can solve these challenges, and in the past, our country has risen to meet similar challenges. It's time once again to roll up our sleeves and become scrappers in the trenches of grassroots.

Join us today, and be part of something great or help us spread the word by contributing today, Because we still believe that America is the last, best hope for peace.

I am an American citizen living overseas, in Izmir, Turkey.

Result of 2006 election clearly indicates, GOP has moved away from true conservatism.
We need get back to ideas what makes America great, conservative ideas and conservative governing. Newt is the perfect candidate for president to take us back on track. Personally, I do hope that Newt will be the presidential nominee in 2008.

Newt Gingrch has every qualification needed to run for President. God Bless our Country with Newt Gingrich as president.

I recently told my wife that in a way I hope we won't have any more grandchildren. The world is heading in such a dangerous and gloomy direction that I fear they wouldn't have the freedoms and security that we seem to be rapidly loosing.
But when I hear Newt Gingrich speak on the issues confronting us, I am encouraged by his forward thinking and sensible ideas about changing our government to meet the challenges of a 21st century world. Can this really happen? I think the answer is YES, IF Newt Gingrich is our next president.
Mr. Gingrich, this is your time. We need somebody like you to reshape the future and transform our government, so we all can look forward to and welcome new grandchildren into this world.

Newt is the best qualified of all the canidates. He puts America's interest above political positioning. We need Newt!!!!

Newt,

Your time has come! This is your destiny, to lead this country out of it's socialistic spin. As you know I have supported you for years. I sat in the basement of the US House and watched on closed circuit, as you won reelection as Speaker of the house by only a few vote.

It is time to trade my speakers gavel lapel pin for a presidential pin.

Please run. And, when you do just tell me where to send the check.

Your old friends from Georgia, now living in Florida.

If you care about the direction of this country like you say you do than please sign on the dotted line. Please let us know one way or another...you are the only hope for the GOP.

At present among the flock of seagulls om both sides of the political aisle, former Speaker Gingrich stands out as a fresh voice of thought, reason and judgement.

His remarks at Cooper-Union, available as a web cast, and appearances televised on C-SPAN recently speak serious truths about the ongoing presidential sweepstakes.

I agree with former Governor Mario Cuomo and believe he should enter the presidential race, not mererly because he could stimulate the debate, but because I think he can win the Big Enchalada!

I would work day and night to help get him elected but I live in the deep flyover region of southwestern Indiana. Nobody among the top tier of presidential hopefuls ever give this region of the country much attention because of the voting history of this state in Presidential elections.

Nevertheless, our city, county, school corporation and economic region have serious and unique problems which deprive our residents of moving forward -- particularly our young people.

I would give anything in the world to sit down with the former speaker and discuss what I have learned over the past several years of toiling in what amounts to a guerrilla rear guard action in an obscure, rather overlooked rustbelt community which lacks vitality, leadership, hope and long term objectives as to what kind of community it wants to become in the future.

For details, check out my personal web site and the published articles which are linked at the bottom of the page.

Any thoughts or reactions, email me.

I'm for Newt! He seems to be the most honest man with core moral values I respect.

Mr. Speaker,

There are no true conservatives currently running. Your time is now and the American people need you. If you do not run, the winning candidate should pick you as a running mate. It will help offest there liberal-ness. However, if you are serious about winning the future. Money will be a key deciding factor in the upcoming primary and general. You need to start raising money now.

I left former USSR to be free. I hate the populistic demagouguery of democrats. I had had more than enough this kind of empty slogans and promises in former USSR. "We will take care about working class, poor, ...etc..."

I like Newt very much.

We have to defeat Islamo-Fascism and Communism.

Newt is the best candidate to accomplish the mission.

Newt
America needs you as President! Please consider!

Newt, We need a strong man with strong covictions to lead this country in a time of war. I think you are the man for the job, and you would do an outstanding job.

we need you!!!
Matt Hartley

I sincerely believe it is time we had someone who has our countrys interests at heart. We definitely do not have that now. Please declare and please keep your current direction. Tks

Dear Mr. Speaker,

Please, please, run for the office of the President! You, through God's help, are our only hope! The Lord, God can use you mightily in battling the foes against America which are living among us. God has blessed you in being very articulate and smart.

I am ashamed of the so called Republicans in the Senate and House they are more concerned with getting elected than the principals of their party,Chuck Hagel sould be come Hillarys running mate.
So please Newt Run !

Through all the political noise from the right and the left, Newt Gingrich represents a clear, conservative voice of reason. Speaker Gingrich demonstrated in his carreer in the House and in the years since, a fundamental understanding of what makes this country so special. There is an army of citizens across the country who are waiting for that one special candidate to emerge - someone they can believe in. Speaker Gingrich has that kind of appeal to a broad spectrum of Republicans and, I believe, some moderate Democrats. We are in critical times. America needs a leader who can unite a very divided country. Newt Gingrich is that man. And I think he can beat anyone the Democrats have to offer.

I'm among those who are tired of Bush's (frankly I've never liked the term), NEW TONE; therefore, I opine that it's time for a 'NEWT TONE'.

Like him or not, Newt Gingrich has what's needed to get things done. He's very intelligent, powerful, creative, decisive, and politically savvy.

Mr Gingrich....I just checked the O'reilly polls for GOP candidate and you were first with 48% 2nd, Guilliani had 31 with 74,000 votes!!!Please "Throw your hat into the ring soon...we need someone who understands our history and the Constitution! We want Newt...We want Newt...We want Newt!

Never before has America faced so many enemies from out and within. Their approach differs but yet they still aggressively tear away at the very fiber of our constitution. We are one nation under God.....that is our strength. WE ARE IN TROUBLE! The only candidate I see that has the mind, abilities and character to put America back where we to be is Newt Gingrich. Mr.Ginrich please run for president....WE NEED YOU !

Go Gingrich!

Dear Mr.Gingrich,I like many Americans are dissillusioned beyond belief.I can not believe how far we have fallen as a nation.I believe you are the chosen one to lead us out of this mess.Illegal immigration and out of control spending along with total ineptitude of our so called leaders is ruining our once great nation.As of now I will not vote Republican or otherwise unless you run.I am that sick of our system.Please consider running for President and you will have my full support.

Dear Mr. Gingrich,
This is my attempt at a call to arms, sir. This country needs you. Not since 1980 has a potential candidate been so right for the job. I own an employment agency. I have the unique opportunity to pre-screen applicants for jobs they are interested in. The hardest thing about my job is when we have an opening and lack the personnel to fill the position. In my humble opinion it has been since the 1988 GOP primaries that we have had any qualified applicants for the job of President of the United States. I have only been folowing politics since about '88. I am only 30, too young really to remember Goldwater or much of Reagan. We need you, sir. If not you then who? Without your candidacy we are left to chose between candidates who are only saying what they think we want to hear.
I remember being in High School when you detailed your "Contract with America". I believe since you left office that contract has not been honored. Our debt is staggering. Our borders are wide open. I believe all of the candidates know the right thing to do. I believe they lack the courage of their own convictions to do what they know is right. Most Americans agree on the right way to govern. Smaller government, lower taxes (almost everyone I have ever spoken with on the matter supports a flat sales tax) strong national defense. Talking head politicians say what they think we want to hear and then do nothing. I believe you are a man of action and we need you.
Sincerely,
Sam Stone

Today I learned Republican Senators had reached what the media are calling "a compromise" on immigration reform.
Once again, the majority of the people in this nation (that silent majority who plod along making this nation work) are to be ignored and in fact told to shut up because detractors call us bigots & racists.
The truth is, we are not racists, nor are we bigots. All we want is our nation protected by securing the borders, businesses looking for profits to obey the same laws the rest of us do, and for the system to be fair.
But by legalizing millions who have broken numerous laws, all we have done is told the world you can beat down America by attacking them in the press & by buying politicians looking to line their own pockets.
The course of this nation is about to change and not for the better. We may have already lost our future. We may already be being pushed into actual physical confrontation one day, just to have basic freedoms.
I pray this is not the case, but the level of my disillusionment today is significant.
Hope you join in the fight to take back this nation Newt, because those running seem to be less interested in America & mostly interested in their own political gain!

Dear Newt,

As a visionary, we need your direction. As an historian, we need your wisdom. As the most charismatic figure of our time, we need your inspiration.
You personify a rare combination of raw intelligence, common sense, and charisma.
Alright Newt...It's go time.

Mr. Gingrich

The last time I voted for President was for Ronald Reagan. I no longer trust the Republican party and have had no intention of ever voting again. However, I believe that you are the most highly qualified person to run, and if you do, I will gladly support you. I believe you would have the total support of real conservative Republicans. Newt, when I read our Constitution and the Federalist Papers, I shake my head in disbelief because of what our America is becoming. I'm sick of being lied to by both parties. We are so far removed from the intent of our brilliant founding fathers that I don't know whether it is possible to recover what we have lost.
If you are willing to toss your hat in the Presidential ring, I will once again become involved. I will vote for you no matter what party you run in. If not, I will just sit back for my remaining years and watch the country continue down the toilet.

Mr. Gingrich,

Our great nation is at a crossroads. With so many sensitive issues that threaten the security and prosperity of America. It was you and your other colleagues that worked to give the Republican party a majority in Congress during the 1990s, and challenge the Clinton machine that was working to destroy our great culture. Today with threats from Islamic extremism, and Mexican invasion, from without, not to forget the ongoing war on terror. We also face from with in the socialist agenda from Barack Obama, Clinton and Edwards. The list goes on but of course you know that. America needs a man like yourself, specifically you to run for President to lead us through the conservative revlution that must come in order to preserve the American dream.
