Newt Gingrich, Republicans can't defeat Hillary in 2016

Monday, December 10, 2012Posted: 7:09 AM Last Updated: 8 hours ago •By: Kevin Liptak, CNN His 2012 presidential bid ended in defeat during the primaries, but that may not have been the last of candidate Newt Gingrich. Asked Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" if he would run for the White House again, the former House speaker put on an enormous Cheshire cat grin and said: "I doubt that, but one never knows." At the end of November, Gingrich told a crowd at a book signing in Florida he had "no idea" whether he would run again in 2016. One factor: his potential Democratic rival. Gingrich said Sunday if Hillary Clinton decides to put her name in contention, Republicans face an uphill climb. "If their competitor in '16 is going to be Hillary Clinton, supported by Bill Clinton and presumably a still relatively popular President Barack Obama, trying to win that will be truly the Super Bowl," he said. "And the Republican Party today is incapable of competing at that level." "She is very formidable as a person. A very confident person," said Gingrich, who served as House speaker during President Bill Clinton's tenure in the White House and often sparred with the Democrat. "She is married to the most popular Democrat in the country. They both think it would be good for her to be president. That makes it virtually impossible to stop her for the nomination, I think," he predicted. If Republicans hope to stand up to Clinton -- or to any Democratic rival -- in 2016, they need to reflect on the reasons they lost the White House this year, Gingrich said. "We didn't blow it because of Mitt Romney," he said. "We blew it because of a party which has refused to engage the reality of American life and refused to think through what the average American needs for a better future."

AMERICA 2016, WHO WILL BE THE NEXT TRUE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE? There have always been surprises resulting from ranking and speculating about the person who will be a future presidential nominee. One would expect most of the names mentioned, would surface from a background of prior political service, becoming nominees in 2016. Yet, in recent weeks, in fact the last several years we have focused ou r attention on some leaders who were not only politically incompetent, but lived unethical, devious and dishonest lives. A few examples include former senator John Edwards, South Carolina governor Mark Sanford, senator Ingle, former Illinois governor Blagojevich, discredited president Bill Clinton, and many others have awakened us to the fact that prior political service is no guarantee of fidelity, honesty, morality and ultimate representation of the American people. This next election cycle I believe is witnessing an anti incumbency modality hitherto not seen in recent years. We are told there are no perfect candidates, I disagree there are many outstanding Americans. Where should Americans search for qualified, honest, caring, moral, public servants? Obviously, the original founders looked among themselves for future servants of the people. The original fifty-five framers of our Constitution included; shippers, scientists, farmers, investors, retirees, lawyers, one minister, a college administrator, and most founders were citizens of good reputation. They were, “give me liberty or give me death” representatives of the people. Only nine of the fifty five actually worked for government compensation. Where will Americans discover the candidate who will work as their servant, committed totally to creating jobs, reducing taxes, promoting a strong economy based on free enterprise, constitutional liberties and our form of government? Will this future nominee be faithful to both civil (presidential) and all solemn oaths (like marriage) will the candidate’s wife and children be an asset to society? Will the nominee stand rock solid against radicals, lobbyists, special interest groups, rogue nations, terrorists and ultimately commit to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States so help him God, if elected? How will the nation decide on a true grassroots nominee who will serve for a dollar a year, in the tradition of the late John F. Kennedy? What path will lead us to this future President living and teaching traditional values, protecting small business, corporate growth, creating millions of new jobs at home? Will this person come to us through public relations imaging, political position, pseudo campaigns and photo opportunities? No, this servant will be identified while walking, working, living among the people, stating personal, national and personal constitutional convictions and listening to the advice and suggestions of the American public. His substance will be deep and committed for too often as a nation we have chosen celebrities and corrupt politicians over serious leaders. This nominee when chosen president will give 24/7 to protect and proudly lead this great country. This selected public servant by the people will give the nation pride and vision once again, in its history, and achievements. This candidate of the people will stand boldly in the global assembly of nations and proudly extol American individualism and achievement. As president, this individual will never apologize for America or bow a knee to foreign heads of state. This public servant will serve the nation exhibiting great force of will and personal compassion while unifying citizens in a common pursuit of excellence. The candidate chosen will ultimately be identified in the schools, homes, churches, schools, neighborhoods and hearts of citizens through their election process. That is how it will happen and when it does America will have given the nation an authentic intelligent public servant to face a time of great challenges. Dr. Alan Phillips, Sr. Like · ·

The Race for the Presidency 2012

In this day of weak Presidential leadership and names being suggested as potential nominees who in several cases are flawed candidates, I will consider seeking the GOP nomination for our nation's highest office. Like Abraham Baldwin of colonial times who was one of our nation's original 55 founders I have served as a pastor of several churches. In addition my career path has included service as a public school teacher-administrator, college academic dean, presidential candidate advisor, friend of a former congressional Republican leader, state senator, as well as a well known congressman, I have also served as a political writer in most of the nation's major newspapers. I have an eaned doctorate from a major university and a background in national security from Harvard, having taken the NIS program in 1982. I have a very special caring wife of fifty years. With three children and five grandchildren I want them and all Americans to look forward with me to America's greatest days. I want my fellow Americans to have their jobs back within two years of my election. Please join with me, read my posts and articles, meet us when we are in your state, and become a part of a common man's crusade ro restore American values and greatness. God bless you and our great country.

America Must Come First, We will not rebuild China on the backs of American Industry and Workers.

This week the President of China will be welcomed by American political leaders and a President that just doesn't get it. We are rebuilding China and much of Asia by eliminating American jobs, taxing unmercifully U.S. businesses while chinese currency is manipulated and Americans can neither borrow money or compete in the export arena. With 15 to 20 percent of the American labor force no longer working, and Chinese enjoying their wealth without a whimper from Congress or the President, our standard of living falls daily.

We must lower state and federal taxes on U.S. companies and increase import fees on all Chinese products. We must replace lobbyists with the American people when it comes to listening and acting. We must demand quid pro quo international markets and reevauate our obligations fiscally to China based on a hard hitting formula which subtracts from our fiscal debt obligations, manipulated yuans and other pretend currency.

We are focused on the military conflicts and wars internationally while the real war for jobs and income continues sponsored by China and others. We Republicans must stop playing footsie with these Chinese autocrats and do it soon.It's all about
jobs, I want at least 20 million created soon.

NY Times, Entertainment Tonight, Sarah Palin Offers Herself for a 2012 Bid

In Sarah Palin's National Review piece I searched once again for a cogent plan for governing a nation, state, or any enterprise. I believe that anyone meeting the constitutional requirements for seeking the Presidency should be able to compete for the office. However I am still searching for Sarah’s plan specific for leading this great nation forward in an economic, moral, ethical, and practical way to achieve the aspirations of all Americans.

In the NRO piece she asserted that "Political contests are not always about truth and justice." I cannot think of a moment when any serious candidate would fail to place truth and justice at the top of their ethos, what is she talking about? When you make it clear that truth is not always an underpinning and operational part of a campaign you are in a danger zone subscribing totally to situational ethics. Is Sarah like a chameleon on a crazy quilt not knowing which color or position to adopt?

Her observation that successful candidates must first set the narrative for me is nothing more than a dangling phrase which makes absolutely no sense to a serious voter. Often intervening variables, unexpected have resulted in huge affects on the national and international scene. President Bush was reading a book to school children when three planes changed the narrative that is still remains a major concern of us all. How can a serious administrator be so inflexible as to enunciate and stubbornly hold to an artificially established narrative?

Her observation that if we don’t agree with some of her postulates and assumptions that, "You are living on a unicorn ranch in fantasy land. Then to further bewilder someone looking for a meaningful plan she makes a sweeping assumption that "there are millions of conservatives, Democrats and Independents ready to join our cause." I am a conservative, but I am not ready to join Sarah Palin's cause since, in my opinion, it has never been articulated in a discernible way to the nation. Will that plan ever be presented to us for our consideration, “You bethcha it won’t.”

U.S. Sends Muslim Center Imam to Arab World to Promote Religious Tolerance

U.S. Sends Muslim Center Imam to Arab World to Promote Religious Tolerance
On Thursday Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, a sponsor of a planned Muslim center in Lower Manhattan, begins a mission from the United States government to promote religious tolerance in the Arab world. NY Times, The Lede, August 19, 2010

Dr. Phillips Response,

The plan to locate this mosque in close proximity to the World Trade Center site is an incredibly destabilizing decision. Wounds remain open in the hearts and daily lives of the survivors whether they are of Christian, Jewish, Muslim or other faith perspectives. This idea has no merit lacking both compassion and basic consideration of others. The motive behind the proposed project remains shrouded in ambivalence, deceit and distortion. Shades of fuzzy meaning cloud the true intent of the authors of this project, This mosque is simply a horrible idea and the President for reasons known only to him has made an uninformed decision which further divides the nation. His biased speech in support of the ground zero mosque may well have been a tipping point for his administration's effectiveness in the future.

Press Release Dr. and Mrs, Phillips at Iowa State Fair August 17, 2010

Proclaiming American Greatness: Dr. and Mrs. Phillips volunteers at the pork tent at the Iowa State Fair
8/16/2010

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TUESDAY AUGUST. 17, 2010 CONTACT: Alan Phillips (309) 824-9298 (309) 824-9298 , ctw46@netscape.net

Des Moines, Iowa (August 17, 2010)

Dr, Alan Phillips, Republican from Illinois, and possible candidate for the 2012 GOP Presidential nomination is a volunteer, along with his wife at the Pork Producers Association pork tent at the Iowa State Fair today. This is Dr. and Mrs. Phillips sixth visit to the state within ten months.

According to several Iowans, Dr. Phillips seeks to lower state and federal taxes on corporations that return jobs to the U.S. from overseas, or create their numerical equivalents in new occupations for American workers. Currently, between Iowa's corporate tax rate and that of the federal government, businesses must pay 41.6 percent to government, highest of any state.

This excessive business taxation rate has given the U.S. the dubious distinction of being the world's leader in corporate taxes. According to Dr. Phillips high corporate taxes are a "jobs killer" that must be dealt with by the next President to improve the competitiveness of American business. Although various members of Congress have suggested a five or ten percent cut in federal taxes on companies, Dr. Phillips feels those reductions are too small to make a major difference to companies planning to relocate and bring jobs with them.

Phillips proposes "to restore the jobs for some 20 million jobless-underemployed workers. He believes the U.S. combined corporate tax rate must be cut to 5 or 10 percent." In the final analysis Dr. Phillips wants a new partnership between state and federal lawmakers to work toward the goal of significantly reducing the overall tax burden on companies in the U.S. and restoring up to 25 million new jobs in three years.
