What really grabs my attention is his knowledge of Islam. He has studied a lot about it since its inception. I still have to catch up on that. He is also a straight shooter, and stood up for his soldiers when needed.

LTCol. West is a strong leader. It is a shame that we don't have clear thinking leaders like him in Washington.

Allen Weat is the conservative equivalent to Al Sharpton, I've read his blog and it's full of meandering rants of a person out of touch with society.

I agree. He is a real leader and would be a good president.

I saw this speech yesterday and it got me pumped up. It's such a shame the democrats rezoned his district just to push him out of office.

Rhetoric, no matter how correct, won't get us anywhere.
If you believe (as I do) that the Iran nuclear deal is a bad one, then it is your duty to convince others - not the least of which is your Congressman.
It is a bad deal because Iran is not to be trusted.
Because Iran is actively working against our interests and that of our allies in Bahrain, Yemen, Syria, Palestine...
Because by deactivating sanctions that took years to impose, we are freeing up billions that will obviously be spent on weaponry.
Because the reactors they have now have only one purpose - to make plutonium. Oh, by the way, they make electricity too. Why do they need plutonium? I wonder.
Conveniently shipping enhanced Uranium to Russia as their own infrastructure was neglected and decrepit is entirely too convenient.
Iran is an enemy of the United States. Not a rival. Make no mistake, they will work against our interests at every turn unless they happen to coincide with theirs. Now they have the resources to make a LOT of mischief.
It takes strength to make a deal with an enemy in the interest of peace. It takes strength to walk away as well. The negotiators and their masters in DC were so hell-bent on getting a deal, any deal, that they compromised away virtually every condition and most of the leverage we had. If it works out, it will be seen as bold. When it doesn't work out - and I will wager all the tea in China it will not - it will be seen as a spectacular miscalculation. Defenders of the President will say how it was worth the risk, etc. I don't understand why we are taking risk just to take risk. Time will tell.

I would vote for Allen West if he were a candidate (for anything). But he isn't and so I won't. Also, I won't vote for Barack Obama for the same reason. He isn't a candidate either. However, to be perfectly honest, I never voted for him and never would. No, we need to focus on those who are candidates. Sadly, all but one of the Republican candidates are busy destroying each other. Only Carly Fiorina is running against the leading Democrat. The leading Democrats are old enough that it is questionable that they will even survive until 2016, let alone complete a term if elected. It's a helluva choice isn't it. Maybe that's why Allen West is beating up on Obama (and the President is such an easy target there being so many opportunities to beat up on him). Actually, I'm a member of the Leave Us The Hell Alone Coalition and I'm waiting to see which candidate shows the most promise for achieving my goal (to be left alone by the government)
