Why I'm With Gingrich

The Illinois primary is tomorrow and I can't wait to go out and cast a vote for Newt. Here's why:

*15% Optional Flat tax - Conservatives have been whining about the overbearing tax code and the bloated IRS bureaucracy for years. A flat tax would eliminate loopholes and reduce the amount and need for an IRS auditing board leaving Americans much more free in regards to their personal finances.

If Newt goes the flat tax goes not only for this election but also possibly for our lifetimes.

*12.5% Corporate Income Tax - This would compete with the lowest tax rates in the world and would invite all the money sitting out on the sidelines, watching in horror as Europe goes down in ashes, to invest in America. Neither Mitt nor Rick come close to this tax rate.

If Newt goes, competing on a global level with that tax rate goes not only for this election but also possibly for our lifetimes.

*Eliminating the EPA - If Newt goes so does the prospect of eliminating the EPA, one of the most destructive forces against entrepreneurship in America today, as he is the only candidate raising that issue. This may be the only opportunity in our lifetimes to do so.

*Federal Reserve Audit - If Newt goes so does the prospect of auditing the Federal Reserve not only for this election but possibly for our lifetimes. Mitt and Rick have refused to even broach this subject. To be clear, a thorough and public auditing of the Fed would result in a universal uprising to eliminate that unconstitutional board that no politician could oppose. Then, we would no longer be left with a lone voice crying out in the darkness every now and again against that board, but we would be a nation of irate and determined people demanding that the Fed be dismantled.

*Optional Private Social Security Account - If Newt goes so does our opportunity to choose an optional, private Social Security account fashioned after the Chilean model not only for this election but possibly for our lifetimes. Mitt and Rick want to keep Social Security more or less status quo.

*Privatize NASA - If Newt goes so does our opportunity to privatize NASA. Mitt and Rick mocked Newt's bold vision for America's space program but offered no option to reform and modernize what is now a behemoth bureaucracy.

Newt can win if we can keep any of the other candidates from getting past 1000 delegates, as this excellent video from CNN demonstrates. We are in the midst of the most exciting primary of any of our lifetimes. The fight has just begun and we can begin the long process of restoring American's constitutional liberties with this election. And it has to do with a whole mess more than just repealing Obamacare, although it must start there.

When we get to the middle of June without a clear winner, all bets are off. It will be time to reset the game. In essence the primary race will have just begun. That's when a true conservative with big, bold ideas can rise up to lead this nation back to its Constitutional limits. Newt doesn't want to manage Washington, as Mitt and Rick seem to want to do. He wants to tear down the Secular-Left Machine, as articulated in the superb video. And that's why I'm with Newt. I hope you consider joining me.
