Last week, I sat down at the computer, and proceeded to write the following letter to Congressman Allen West (R-FL). As I stated in my letter to Colonel West, I have been a fan of his for quite some time now. There are a number of terrific speeches by Col. West on the internet, specifically the clip of him speaking in late-2009 at the Revolution in Ft. Lauderdale (I just learned that the Revolution is a concert venue - but it is an apropos name). Go to YouTube and search “West Revolution”. Look for the six-minute clip. In my opinion, it is impossible to watch Col. West speak and not be moved and motivated to do something.
Except for Herman Cain (who, like Col. West, also happens to be black), I cannot think of a single qualified candidate for president in 2012; at least not one that can unseat Obama. I do not dislike Mr. Cain at all. However, I do not know all that much about him and, in my opinion, he does not possess Col. West’s charisma.
I truly believe that we are at a crossroads. We are facing the most important presidential election of our lifetimes – possibly of ALL time. And if we do not put forth a forceful, PRINCIPLED candidate, I’m afraid that we will be sentenced to another four years of the Obama regime. And I doubt seriously that our Republic will be able to withstand it.
The time is NOW. It is only a year until the first primaries. God help us all if we end up with another McCain with the “R” next to his (or her) name.

Re: Facebook, Draft Allen West . . .
Thank you.
No, he needs to make the Oval office his office.
He doesn't need any more preparation and America doesn't have time to wait anymore. We're living on borrowed time, drifting further from our Constitutional roots. America has been weakened too much in too many ways and we need a strong and principled leader.
