In life, always have a fall back position. Ask President Lincoln, who went throught of failures before the big successes.
I agree, American. I tell you I admire this man, West so much.
If I must have a man greater than me as a leader, which I personally believe that I do, because I know my flaws and they are many, I would want that man to be Col. Allen West.
He has leadership qualities unlike anyone that I have ever seen in my life except perhaps for Ronald Reagan.
