I mean, this is a guy who is outside of the regular system, he is totally prepared to be a unique figure, nothing intimidates him, he is independently wealthy on a great scale, and he achieved a lot in his lifetime.
Gingrich called billionaire businessman extraordinary and a very talented person.
Its not just that he has made a lot of money, but that he has run big systems, he has had New York Times best-selling books, he has had the number-one rated television show in The Apprentice, he has run the Miss Universe contest, he has invented an entire collection of ties, which turned out to do very well, by the way, Gingrich said.

Ha! Hopefully we can get to a point where whatever she succeeds in in life will be considered “Presidential material.” Trump, Carson and Fiorina are leading the way.
That’s just plain how it’s gonna be if this country cares to have a future. Cruz is a far cry from the Archangel Michael which some seem to think he is.
Willard was a ringer and there was never any intention for him to win (his sole purpose was to stop any viable Conservative nominee). Newt was schizo, and always has had a bizarre fetish to be loved and accepted by the party establishment (he started his career as a GOP Rockefeller leftist). Debates alone, even if Newt or Santorum had bested Zero in them, would’ve been enough. I tentatively backed Santorum, but he was badly underfunded and basically a second-tier candidate. I really wanted to draft Gov. Walker that year, though if his choke-up this year was any indication, he might’ve blown it against Zero.
Gotta love these Newbie Trumpsters who sign up just to tear down the true conservatives.
Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way out of FR.

You are absolutely 100% correct. Too many lawyers by far in Washington. Past time to show ‘em the door.
Daughter interns at city prosecutor’s office during summers. I have a feeling that could be her first job post graduation.
After Cruz wins Iowa and the SEC heââ¬â¢ll fade into the sunset? Thatââ¬â¢s odd. Is that 2015 newbie logic?
That’s polititroll wishful thinking.
That’s my logic and I’ve most likely been at this game of politics longer than you two. Did you work on Eisenhower’s reelection?
Who does Newt support?
Yes that’s true and not only that, but he followed through with all of it.
But he couldn’t be dastardly enough to take out the GOP establishment who landed ED Bob Dull into the nominee spot. And of course that led to 4 more years of a scumbag democrat president.
Newt sitting down with Nancy Pelosi!
Sorry Buster, but I don’t get scared by empty threts. Guess you’re used to pushing around people who disagree with you . Your huff and puff threats are nothing but hot air. Try to show a little intelligence.
Why be so bitter against a newbie? Just because the poster supports a different candidate than you do? How does that help FR to grow? I have to assume Jim Robinson wants more people to join FR and increase it’s base, not discourage new joiners.
Yes, I’ve always admired Newt.
I watched Newt on TV a few weeks back on a cable network, and what I recall is that basically he will support whoever wins nomination. It did not sound like he is pushing any one particular candidate.
Thank you. It does get a little tiresome dealing with people who think their years on FR make them geniuses. i enjoy discussion and debate, but not childish name calling which I associate with liberals.
‘Tis the season. They show up to disrupt, de-moralize then disappear when the dust settles.
Do you know Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neill (democrat Speaker of House) were friends? May be that is why Reagan got a lot of his agenda through congress. That becomes much harder if very few people like you and get along with you.
By your measurement Cruz has 88% chance of NOT getting nomnation, Rubio has 90% chance of NOT getting nomination, and Bush has 96% chance of NOT getting nomination.
I like all above odds.
LOL...ditto!!
Thanks for pointing out the reality of the ‘odds’. Math’s hard....some folks don’t do their calculations before posting their snippy smear attempts. ;-)
LOL I am getting smarter as I get older hahaha
Too bad this did not happen earlier in my life :(
