Also at issue are questions of influence peddling. Gingrich's effort to win access to a college campus, for example, was facilitated by Kennesaw State College business dean Timothy Mescon. While helping Gingrich find a forum at Kennesaw, Mescon was getting help from Gingrich in drumming up business for his consulting firm, the Mescon Group. The relationship is clearly spelled out in an exchange of letters.

The final branch of Newt's machine is the Progress & Freedom Foundation, a nonprofit think tank set up by former GOPAC director Jeffrey Eisenach in 1993--before he resigned from GOPAC. Legally eligible for tax-deductible contributions, the foundation began sponsoring Gingrich's college course in late 1993.
