(Washington DC) Vets for Freedom is proud to announce its support of Allen West for United States Congress in the 22nd District of Florida. With a 20 year career as an officer in the Army, LTC West proudly served with distinction in Operation Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom, earning a Bronze Star, three Meritorious Service Medals, three Army Commendation Medals (one with Valor), and a Valorous Unit Award. Vets for Freedom applauds Allens commitment to continue his public service as a member of the United States House of Representatives.
As a proud Army veteran of Iraq, I am humbled to speak on behalf of over 25,000 members of Vets for Freedom in offering our strong endorsement of Allen West for United States Congress, said Vets for Freedom Co-Chairman, David Bellavia. "Few people know true commitment like those who lead men under the fires of battle. Allen West is man who has never taken the easy way out. He does what is right because it is right. And if my two sons were to go to war, I would want a man of Allen West's character and dedication to lead them.
Bellavia continued, This is an American who puts patriotism over party - a man who places honor over personal privilege. Allen West is a true American patriot and proud defender of God, Country and Family. Washington needs more men like Allen West, and I am proud to offer the support of Vets for Freedom. I know leadership... there are men who talk like Allen West... and then there is Allen West."

Allen West’s website is very well designed. And his background and positions on issues is exactly what America needs to move forward to a healthy future.
Good luck Mr, West! You have a fan in Texas!

GO WEST!
Thank you for the ping?
Will this endorsement bring in some donations? I certainly hope so.
I recruited several friends of mine and my family to spend the next two weeks intermittently calling the RNC to ask why they are not doing more for Lt. Col. West. *crossing my fingers* I hope it works.

Cool. I hope this endorsement brings donations as well. West is going against a guy with almost $3 million!
And the calls to the RNC combined with the new fundraising figures, and this endorsement should go a long way in getting him as a speaker at the convention!!
