Allen West: Obama's 'Just Plain Scared to Fight for America'

Former U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Fla., went after President Barack Obama and the Democrats on Tuesday. West painted the Democrats as a party of defeatists in an email sent out on Tuesday night.

I call it as I see it, West insisted. Obama is the weakest American president since Jimmy Carter or maybe even in our entire history. He's just plain scared to fight for America.

Despite losing to Patrick Murphy in 2012, West has left the door open to a political comeback though he is not running for office in 2014. Later this week, West will be hosting the Allen West Black Tie Boot Camp which features Donald Trump and Republican state legislators including Florida Rep. Mike Hill, R-Pensacola.

I'm prepared to lead America back to strength no matter what it takes, West proclaimed on Tuesday.
