"Take your message of equality of achievement, take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else. You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it to the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America," Rep.

I think you’re right; West is all bluster, but when the chips are down, he votes with the establishment all the way.

Thank you!

I like this guy, so for future reference- if he has any warts, lets hear about them NOW instead of during a campaign.
I don’t think the Man on the Moon or the Martians want them either. It might have to be a colony far, far, away.
BTTT!
I wish West would have ran for POTUS.
I recall back when myself and others were hoping West would run.There were actually people that would argue me tooth and nail that West cannot run because he does not ‘have as much experience’ as Palin and it is ‘not his turn.’
This attitude reflects where we are today accepting the bottom of the barrel as our only hope vs. someone that didn’t even run.
I think West trumps all in experience;I recall citing his intelligence and military experience would make him a fine President.
I'm sure West is livid over Obama’s outing of our SEALs.
