Newt Gingrich files as a candidate for President of the United States in the year 2000. Claim will be held as true if Gingrich files as a candidate with the Federal Election Commission or its successor organization. In the event the Federal Election Commission is abolished with no successor organization, a public announcement of intent to seek the nomination of a political party or run as an independent or third-party candidate will suffice.
Ambiguity clause: I will judge this claim based on its precise wording, unless this wording conflicts with my perception of the intent of the claim. If both intent and wording are ambiguous, I will look for a solution that causes the least damage to FX as a market and game. If you have any questions, or think you may have found a loophole, please contact me!!
