Ike Eisenhower, generally regarded as one of the best presidents of the last century [many say better than Reagan], served not a single day in Congress. The people were fed up with career politicians, and wanted someone with proven LEADERSHIP ability.

Although Allen West will have only 2 years in Congress by 2012, he developed his leadership ability in a military career spanning 22 years of service, including SIX tours of duty in the Middle-East.

West has more leadership ability in his pinky finger than BO has in his entire body. And there is NO ONE else in Congress who would be as good, let alone a better leader.

West honed his quick-thinking ability on the battle-field, where whether or not he made the right decision may have meant the difference as to whether he and the men under him survived.

Unlike Obama, we can feel secure knowing that, if we have Allen West in the White House, all 3 A.M. emergency calls will be handled COMPETENTLY by himself.

Glen Beck last week endorsed Allen West for president. In almost every poll that West's name has been included, he out-polled anyone else. The only problem left in getting his campaign off the ground is that West himself has been reluctant to run, because he feels obligated to his local constituents who elected him to Congress.

But, with all due respect to the fine folks of Florida, OUR COUNTRY needs West as much as they do. And if we can put him in the White House, he can do even more for the people in Florida.

Even without yet tossing his hat in the ring, West has captured the hearts of millions of those who would gladly vote for him nationally.

Eisenhower too was initially very reluctant to run. But he eventually yielded to the call of duty after the grass roots movement took action to draft him. And that's what we are working to do with Allen West right now. Please read the latest activity report I got just today:

**********

As you will note, even though they have not yet gotten West to commit himself, nonetheless, they are already mounting an extensive campaign: "They will be running ads and commercials for Allen West in newspapers, on radio and TV, plus hold rallies and other campaign events."

This is the same way that the grass roots movement drafted Eisenhower to accept the GOP nomination.

Personally speaking, I think Ike Eisenhower is grossly under-rated as a president. In many ways I see him SUPERIOR TO Ronald Reagan. Reagan gave illegals amnesty. Eisenhower gave them "Operation Wetback," mass-deporting almost 2 million illegal aliens, mostly Mexicans, freeing up jobs for Americans only.

That's the type of leadership we could expect from Allen West.

    Wake up, America! If you don't want Barack Hussein to get a 2nd term, Allen West is the ONLY possible GOP candidate who can stop him from again getting a free pass from 12 million black voters and beat him. No white candidate can. Cain can't. Cain couldn't even carry his own state, so how would he possibly win a national election?

    Unlike Romney, Huckabee, Gingrich and Christie, Allen West is NOT a RINO. We don't want the GOP to again try shoving a RINO down our throats in 2012 like they did in 2008.

    The Tea Party endorsed West as a congressman. Glen Beck has already endorsed West for president. Beck also wants West to appoint Ron Paul as Treasury Secretary having control over the Federal Reserve.

    This is from a biography on Ike Eisenhower, drawing parallels with where we are now trying to draft Allen West as president:

    " ...the "Draft Eisenhower" presidential grassroots effort took shape and swelled to a crescendo that he could no longer ignore. In preparation for what was to come, Eisenhower retired from active service, resigned his commission, and headed home to Abilene, to formally announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination for President of the United States.

    Dwight David Eisenhower was elected the 34th President* of the United States on
    November 4, 1952. Four years later, he was reelected to a second term by an even wider margin."
