Rep. Allen West is a true patriot.

I’d support Allen West in a pico-second in whatever endeavor he engaged in.

Better than that, he is the embodiment of what an American Patriot is, period.

Palin/West - same voters
Palin/Rand Paul - may strengthen the ticket more with Libertarians
Palin/Paul Ryan - may draw in the establishment

VP? I’d rather see him as Secretary of State!

Talk about heads exploding!

Palin / West is a fantastic idea for a beautiful ticket. By the way, I wonder why the Dems are so silent when either of these great Americans experience is compared to that of their supposedly greatest President, former County Commissioner Harry S. Truman???

He was far more filled with platitudes and trite sayings that either Palin or West for a fact!!! Palin's experience in governing as a exective totally eclipses Truman's!!! And West's courageous military record is at least equal to Truman's!!!

This is my main concern: Even if Rep. Allen West does decide to become the VP pick, how can the GOP, then, make sure that the Congressional seat that he represents doesn’t return to the Democrats? His constituents might get too upset with having a great guy like Rep. Allen West leave so soon, and this seat stayed on the Democrats side for a long time, prior to Allen West winning it in ‘10!

A powerful, pro Liberty, pro American ticket!! Could you imaging the demo VP debating West? West will crush them. I believe the Marxist will find a way NOT to debate Sarah. She would crush Obama in any debate.

people might take exception to me saying this , but....
Only a Black Male is capable of defeating Barack Obama for the Presidency in 2012 .
None of these white boys can do it and the time for a lady is either over, or not here yet . The Dems/Progs/Libs will break out all the stop in attacking any and all candidates against their boy . All race cards will be played vigorously . Only another black man ; an actual native born American black man , who descends from natural born black parentage can beat Obama . This is Allen West , and not some pizza franchise starter or talkshow host.
America is at war . America’s Armed Forces need to be led by a warrior , not by gaggles of liberal lawyers .
They deserve it . It’s the least we can do for them , who have given us so much . Give them President Allen West .
