He was over the age that people were being drafted when the draft was run

25 yrs old and not eligible for the draft? HARDLY! I know stinky when I smell it and his excuse reeks!

correction, 20 something years old did not make one exempt. Putting the time table in accord with RP’s years of service, Gingrich would have been 22 yrs old and was just out of college. Nice try though it’s just too bad the truth diesn’t line up with his excuse.

I like Newt as a historian, but as a politician/possible president, his political character leaves a lot to be desired and thus far he has not come forward with the kind of character that we need to turn this nation around to get it back on a solid constitutional foundation. I can honestly say this about ALL the candidates thus far, including RP. I am neither for or against any EXCEPT Mittens, who can take a flying leap back to Michigan and retire so we will never have to hear from him again. Well, Mittens & Huntsman who isn’t really in the running anyway according to the numbers.
