>Gingrich is also known as a dinosaur enthusiast. A New Yorker comment on his 1995 book To Renew America noted: "Charmingly, he has retained his enthusiasm for the extinct giants into middle age. In addition to including breakthroughs in dinosaur research on his list of futuristic wonders, he specified 'people interested in dinosaurs' as a prime example of who might benefit from his education proposals."[121]

>Another subject of interest to Gingrich is space exploration, originating in a fascination with the United States/Soviet Union space race during his teenage years.[122] Gingrich has stated that he would like to see the U.S. aggressively pursue new achievements in space, such as sustaining civilizations beyond Earth,[123] and he advocates relying more on the private sector and less on NASA to drive progress.[124] As of 2010[update], Gingrich serves on the National Space Society Board of Governors.[125]

THIS IS YOUR LAST HOPE, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

Government agencies are vastly inferior to the free market when it comes to innovation. Name one thing that the government has produced that was both good and couldn't have been done by the free market better and for less.

>The notion of a rigid separation between church and state has no basis in either the text of the Constitution or the writings of our Founding Fathers. On the contrary, our Founders' political views were strongly informed by their religious beliefs. Certainly the drafters of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, both replete with references to God, would be aghast at the federal government's hostility to religion.
>The Founding Fathers envisioned a robustly Christian yet religiously tolerant America, with churches serving as vital institutions that would eclipse the state in importance. Throughout our nation's history, churches have done what no government can ever do, namely teach morality and civility.

No idea why a Clinton-loving Democrat would, but shitloads of Republicans will because he was responsible for the "greatest" victory in the US since Reagan took 49 out of 50 states.

>Gingrich has stated that he has developed a greater appreciation for the role of faith in public life following his conversion, and believes that the United States has become too secular. At a 2011 appearance in Columbus, Ohio, he said, "In America, religious belief is being challenged by a cultural elite trying to create a secularized America, in which God is driven out of public life."

Sweet. America really has been way too secular recently.

You don't have to agree with me on issues. But you damn well better not vote for one of the most absurd candidates in the race this year.

You vote republican? Pick a candidate who isn't complete shit like Pawlenty or Romney. Are you a libertarian? Then the Ron Paul revolution is the most exciting nonstarter ever for you.

>> No.3041574

There's no serious support for Newt Gingrich, is there? I can accept some amount of Ron Paul support because libertarian idiots are furiously spamming their bullshit all over the internet 24/7, but Gingrich? He'd be the next Richard Nixon.

Even if you're a republican, you have to admit he's an awful choice. Romney is the only barely electable person who's surfaced so far.

But hell, if you're gonna lose, might as well go full retard. Ted Nugent 2012!!

I'm not saying he's got a shot or that he wouldn't be disastrous.

But look at who he's up against. Who else is going to get the nomination? Trump? Palin?
