It is not economics. It all boils down to pretty much race. It is a shame.” Hit the jump to read the rest of the story.

Tea Party caucus member Allen West tells Bill Hemmer that he thinks Samuel L. Jackson needs to pay more attention to promoting the release of his upcoming movie ‘The Avengers’ and not get concerned with the politics and policies of a failed administration.

“This is not about a person; it’s about policies that failed,” West said.

On another note, West commented on the state of the GOP presidential race. As Herman Cain continues to gain traction, now tied with Mitt Romney in the polls at 17 percent, West says he is not surprised at his rise in the polls and says, “He is coming forth with common sense solutions to what is happening in our country,” and that is what Americans are looking for.
