The documents show that Rubio’s parents came to the United Stat...

Allen West uses violent rhetoric to vitalize his base
If you're here to shrink away from the duties, there's a door. Get out. But if you're here to stand up, to get your musket, to fix your bayonet, and to charge into the ranks, you are my brother and sister in this fight. You need to leave here understanding one simple word. That word is 'bayonets.' And charge this enemy for your freedom, for your liberty, for the future and the legacy of that young lady right there... You leave here today charge!
