I concur. Newt would be an excellent behind the scenes guy. Having him on the ticket as a vp would make it seem like a continuance of old lifelong politicians. Trump needs a young face with little baggage.

Well, he’s not young, but Jeff Sessions would be a great VP, IMO...
I have considered Newt a superb speaker and politician since I first heard him in the early 80s. He can explain and put things in perspective probably better than any others of the political class. He is excellent on stage.
But Newt is a flat out bend with the wind politician. He does not seem to have any hard convictions, though he can talk as if he does.
Ideal chief of staff or pr guy. Could decimate the enemy camp as spokesman for the new admin. He can flat slice and dice to the core when he chooses to do so.
Yes he belongs in a senior position, but not VP.
