Do you know if it is true that the Speaker of the House does not necessarily even need to be an actual member of Congress? I thought I remember reading this at the time Bonehead left. Thank you.
Yes, Gingrich could be Speaker of the House. Don’t think he would take the gig.
Maybe it needs to be someone not in Congress because it is true that many good candidates will be leery of taking the position right now.
It’s true. But never has happened.
