RSSAllen West for President in 2016?
RUN ALLEN, RUN!!!
If you thought you have seen the last of Col. Allen West, think again. Former US Rep. Allen West (FL-R) was interviewed by NPR and hinted to what his future plans may be. Hinted, hmm … West’s hint was as subtle as a sledgehammer, “And always remember, Abraham Lincoln only served one term in Congress, too.” I would dare say that Allen West has more in common with Lincoln than does the current occupant of the White House.
MARTIN: So what’s next for you?
WEST: Look, you know, God closes a door so that he can open up greater doors. I will continue to, you know, stand up and fight for this country. That’s my goal. I have two daughters, 19 and 16, and I want to make sure that they grow up in a great America that provides them all the opportunities that it provided to their mother and father.
MARTIN: Congressman Allen West is completing his term in Congress. He was kind enough to join us from a House recording studio on Capitol Hill here in Washington, D.C.
WEST: And always remember, Abraham Lincoln only served one term in Congress, too.
MARTIN: Duly noted. Congressman West, thank you so much for speaking with us.
The Lonely Conservative is not the only one who hopes he runs. I am guessing the MSM and Democrats will still call the individuals racist for voting for West as well. I can’t wait for the MSM to embrace Allen West for President like they did Barack Obama.

TOO far left. Won’t happen
Sorry I mean to far right…Oh my

SM: I actually disagree. No President has been more far LEFT than Obama and he was elected. Obama is actually a socialist. I would dare say that people vote for some one who stands for something as wrong as it might be. Candidates in the middle like McCain and Romney do not attract the base.
The MSM will attack any candidate put forth by the GOP or TEA party people. They have failed their duty in looking after the people by becoming nothing more than a propaganda machine for the Democrats.
I totally agree that WEST stands for something esentially very beneficial! But that something is not free, it requires descipline and hard work, i.e. education, skills training.
Also, his right religious bent won’t fly. The county, both right and left, is moving away from organized religion regardless of cries to the contrary. The new reality:

The African American population turned on both Bill Cosby, and Clarence Thomas for advocating the same type ideas. Also lost was Oprah Winfry’s US welfare rehab project “Families for a Better Life.”
“Yes, if there’s one thing even Oprah’s money can’t buy it is a simple solution to the nation’s poverty problems”
