Good for him, but I’d rather he was in elected office again. He is one of the few politicians I ever contributed my time and money to.

Add Colonel West to my list of ‘crushes.’ I read his blog posts regularly. Such common sense. Such a fine Patriot. :)

All the Best to Col. West. I hope he maintains a high profile and widens and deepens his following at the national level with his new job.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
My read is that he is WAY too smart to run for president.
To: 2ndDivisionVet; All
I happened to catch this on local talk radio Friday morning on my way home from work; apparently he has family throughout the DFW area, his last stateside post was Ft. Hood, and he plans on moving to DFW when his kids graduate high school.
IIRC he was being interviewed by Mark Davis.

Allen West is the one man who I would consider to be the ideal president. To me, he would rate right up there with Washington. An honorable and patriotic leader, dedicated to his country. The Republic
desperately needs a man like him at this point in her history.
Of course, it's just my humble opinion, but all other likely candidates pale in comparison.

Guess where he will be: Cruz/Palin territory.
Yehaw!
I love West. And North :)

He did say he was running for “something” in 2016, and many assumed it was Marco Rubio’s empty senate seat. Maybe the colonel is getting some fund-raising connections
To: SirLurkedalot
Oh, he is moving to Texas? He can run for a House seat then!

Welcome to Texas, Col. West.

Except there really aren’t any more competitive blue seats after Galego went down. How many RINOs still around in TX? Pete Sessions?

You know, I haven’t actually checked. I judge our current direction on what our new Governor Abbott says. Constitutionally, the Gov is weaker than the Lt. Gov, but that’s not true in reality anymore now that Straus is weakened and Blue Austin has a blood-red body politic moving in.

He might need to spend some time here first. But who knows? Time will tell.
