Lieutenant Colonel Allen West (US Army, Retired) was born and raised in Atlanta Georgia and is third of four generations of military servicemen in his family. His parents instilled in him a very basic principle, love of God and Country. In 2004, when it was time to retire from more than twenty years of service in the US Army, he brought his wife and two young daughters to Broward County, Florida, where he taught high school for one year. He then returned to Afghanistan as an advisor to the Afghan army, an assignment he finished in November 2007.
Allen West received his Bachelors degree from University of Tennessee and Masters degree from Kansas State University, both in political science. He also holds a Master of Military Arts and Sciences from the US Army Command and General Staff Officer College in political theory and military operations.
"Education is the great equalizer," he says. "With a good education, any child in America can live his dream."
Allen West knows that for our children to live their dreams, they need to be safe. He has served in several combat zones: in Operation Desert Storm, in Operation Iraqi Freedom, where he was battalion commander for the Army's 4th Infantry Division, and in Afghanistan, where he trained Afghan officers to take on the responsibility of securing their own country.
In his Army career, Col. West has been honored many times, including a Bronze Star, three Meritorious Service Medals, three Army Commendation Medals (one with Valor), and a Valorous Unit Award. He received his valor award as a Captain in Desert Shield/Storm, was the US Army ROTC Instructor of the Year in 1993, and was a Distinguished Honor Graduate III Corps Assault School. He proudly wears the Army Master parachutist badge, Air Assault badge, Navy/Marine Corps parachutist insignia, Italian parachutist wings, and German proficiency badge (Bronze award).
Allen is an avid distance runner, a PADI Master certified SCUBA diver, motorcyclist, and attends Community Christian Church in Tamarac Florida.
Excellence is a West family tradition. His wife, Angela, holds an MBA and PhD. and works as a financial planner. His oldest daughter, Aubrey, attends Archbishop McCarthy HS and his youngest daughter, Austen, attends Parkway Christian School.

Steve is among the most sought after “Talking Heads” regularly appearing on the Fox News Channel and CNN.

Take a look at the busses for the Tea Party Express:
*TEA PARTY EXPRESS BUSSES ARE READY!* (Yes Two Busses!)
Somebody needs to tell them to fix the 912DC.org site.
You get a ‘script running badly..damage computer’ or something every time you go there.
I’ve recommended this site to many, but nobody wants to go through this mess to try to read it.
I’ll be discussing the FRNC on the show this evening.

Talk show host, Andrew Wilkow, is one of the youngest in the pantheon of national conservative hosts. He proudly identifies himself as "the next generation of great talk radio".
Only 37, Andy is currently a host on the Sirius Network. He was born in Florida and raised on Long Island, New York. He received his communications degree from the University of Florida.
He was interviewed by Proud Conservative.com and asked the question: "Americans have different issues that are of concern to them. What are some of the issues that are of concern to you as a conservative?"
Wilcow: "The re-packaging of socialism/communism. The politicizing of science. The slow dilution of our national sovereignty."
Interviewer: "What would an Andrew Wilkow presidency look like?"
Wilkow: "Precision and efficiency before feelings and emotion. I would use the power of tax cuts to make it irresistible for companies to bring manufacturing jobs home. The same tax policy would make it irresistible to foreign companies to open factories here, too.
"I would lock down the border and enforce our immigration laws. I would uphold our sovereignty. I would seek to end the perpetual cycle of welfare for votes. I would nominate strict constitutionalists/traditionalist judges to the federal bench. This is just for starters....it's Wilkow Conservatism!"
Interviewer: "You are one of the few people Mark Levin will let fill in for him on his talk show. What about that?"
Wilkow: "There is a trust there. My first ever talk radio job was as his fill-in when he was broadcasting only on Sundays. My favorite hosts are Levin and Sean Hannity".
Interviewer: "Do you believe in life on other planets?"
Wilkow: "Have you ever talked to a liberal?"
There we have it freepers, one of the younger guys in the "next generation of great conservative hosts" will be providing his insights during our banquet program.
At the banquet you can see for yourself what makes him such a popular tell-it-like-it-is radio host as well as an eagerly-sought-after conservative speaker.
The awesome power of talk radio helped defeat the amnesty bill and it's blowing Obama's health care bill into outer space. Thank the good Lord that we have a deep bench of conservative hosts with dynamic young talent coming up through the ranks.
Make your reservation now (see first page on this thread) and be in our banquet audience as we give Andy Wilkow a warm freeper welcome and a big round of applause!
Whoo Hoo!
Leni
I am already a Wilkow Majority fan and can't wait to meet Andrew! Our National Freeper Convention will be the place to be from 9/11-9/13!
Freepers, get your tickets and book your room for an event you won't want to miss! See you all in DC!
Good luck with the tour and the convention!
