Announced Speakers for the 2012 Republican Convention

By Oscar Y. Harward

An approved list of speakers for (y)our 2012 GOP Convention in Tampa, Florida; however, it would be more appropriate to see and hear working with, not in any particular order, the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan team to include:

1.    2008 Vice Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin who has awakened and energized the Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party members and supporters all across America.

 

With former Alaska Governor and 2008 Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin working as “Secretary of Interior” with the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan team to allow America to become “energy independent”, our USA recovery would be online.  Sarah Palin has the required experience to allow more oil exploration of known reserves.

 

2.    Former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich who unquestionably the most intelligent 2012 Presidential candidate with working issues in restoring our Constitutional “fiscal and social values”, as well as our National Security.

 

Former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich as “Budget Advisor” has the knowledge, experience, and determination to “eliminate” some entire government departments and “cut back” on others allowing government to get out of the way allowing “entrepreneurs to create jobs.  Restoring our Constitutional freedoms may require some changes in our Judiciary.

3.    Retired Ltc. And Congressman Allen West (R-FL-22) who has all of the requirements to serve as “Secretary of Defense”, “National Security advisor”, or “Sec. of Homeland Security”.

Congressman Allen West would be a “first choice” serving as “Secretary of Defense”, “National Security advisor”, or “Sec. of Homeland Security”.  President Obama’s “appointed Officers” in the US Military has damaged and/or destroyed our US Military.

Retired “Hero” veteran Allen West with 22 years of service in the US Army after serving as a Field Artillery Officer in several combat zones: in Operation Desert Storm, in Operation Iraqi Freedom, where he was battalion commander for the Army’s 4th Infantry Division, and in Afghanistan, where he trained Afghan officers to take on the responsibility of securing their own country.

 

November of 2010, Congressman West was elected to Congress.  He has a Bachelor's degree at the University of Tennessee and a Master's degree from Kansas State University, both in political science and Military Arts and Sciences from the U.S. Army Command and General Staff Officer College in political theory and military operations.

Congressman West has been honored, including a Bronze Star, three Meritorious Service Medals, three Army Commendation Medals (one with Valor), and a Valorous Unit Award. He received his valor award as a Captain in Desert Shield/Storm, was the US Army ROTC Instructor of the Year in 1993, and was a Distinguished Honor Graduate III Corps Assault School. He proudly wears the Army Master Parachutist badge, Air Assault badge, Navy/Marine Corps parachutist insignia, Italian parachutist wings, and German proficiency badge.
