“If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
– Samuel Adams
The Original Republican
Dedicated to the principles of Individual Liberty
When I read that statement by Samuel Adams, I can’t help but think of Colonel Allen West as an experienced patriot to fill a higher seat. Hopefully, someone with his military credentials could quite possibly also have the spine to adhere to our Constitution as the legal document that gives the enumerated powers to the federal government. Just my thoughts.
I really like Allen West, southernbelle. Patriots don’t necessarily need to be military men; but, there is no doubt, our military has some of the most honorable and decent people in our nation. We need people who thoroughly understand our original Constitution; and, will defend it, diligently, against all enemies – foreign and domestic.
