Why are you so interested in Allen West? He’s had at least 2 questionable votes. I like his history a lot and almost all of what he says but those 2 votes bother me. And I don’t think we need both the POTUS and the VP with NO federal executive experience. There are other choices. I pick Gingrich for his experience and past success - and yes, he has that baggage but we need someone who has shown he knows how to get results.
Herman Cain ran a branch of the fed, and also liaised while at the restaurant assoc. It is not the strongest though. Maybe Palin for VP again?
