Allen West Will 'Definitely' Run For Office Again In 2016
Right Wing Watch ^ | 1/24/2014 | Kyle Mantyla

Posted on 01/26/2014 7:27:17 PM PST by Gene Eric

Allen West appeared on Jesse Lee Peterson's radio program yesterday where he vowed that he will "definitely" make another run for public office.

Claiming that he lost his re-election bid in 2012 because Democrats and Republicans conspired to remove him from office because they knew he was "a threat to us and our business as usual way of ruining this great country," West took pride in being a target and declared that he was not going away.

When Peterson asked West if he had any plans to run for office again in the future, West responded that "oh yeah, I will definitely come back ... In the 2016 cycle, we'll look to getting back in and running myself. Whatever God would have me do"

Yes! That’s what I’m talking about! Colonel West is not a quitter.

Col. West could pick out a tailor made district, move there and cruise to an easy win. The fact that he is staying in Florida and fighting the b*st*rds on their own turf speaks volumes about the character of the man.

I was seated next to him on a flight from Ft Lauderdale to Cincinnati after Thanksgiving.

He was giving a presentation at Miami University the next day.

He told me this news at that time.

I’ve always respected him but after talking with him, freely, for three hours, I would follow him anywhere. He is a true American leader.

Very eloquent. Very directed.

I’ve thought of that opportunity every day since and am looking forward to the chance to help him onto the national stage again!

RWW is a great youtube channel. Bryan Fischer is correct it gets the word out.

With Paul, Jindal, Walker and all other conservatives promoting some kind of amnesty and massive immigration hopefully there will be an alternative.

He's been one of my favorite Americans since I first learned of this

The Army has filed a criminal assault charge against an American officer who coerced an Iraqi into providing information that foiled a planned attack on U.S. soldiers

Open Senate seat for Col West? This would be great news!

Same here. What they tried to do to him was a disgrace to this country. He was trying to save the lives of his soldiers. The P-gon and its “lawyers” didn’t think that was the right thing to do. Shooting a pistol off next to a terrorist’s ear should not be a crime.

Maybe he’s going after RINO Rubio, but I doubt it.

It was my wife’s First Class seat but she let me use it so she could sit with my son a couple rows back. Col. West made it a point to cut through some people to shake hands with my 11 year old son as we were getting off. Good guy.

It was really an eye opening conversation. Everything from Birth Certificate to Benghazi to Republican politics. Wow!
