Allen West Jabs Obama as Book Release Draws Near

Former Congressman Allen West continues to remain in the national spotlight -- and he is gearing up for a book tour.

West took to Facebook on Tuesday morning and informed his followers that he had finished writing a book. We now move into the editing phase, which we have been doing chapter by chapter as I completed writing, West wrote. The book will present my thoughts as a man, a warrior, my political philosophy, being a black conservative, and my vision for the republic as an American statesman.

West could not resist a shot at President Barack Obama. The prankster in me thought about naming the book, Dreams from my American Father' but you all will just have to wait for official release from our publisher.

On Monday, West spoke at conservative Kings College in New York. Based on this, his new gig with Fox News and even sending up trial balloons for a future run for office in 2016, its clear the former congressman has no intention of fading from the political scene.
