Blatant Reality

Yesterday, Huckabee preached a sermon at the First Spartanburg North Baptist church to a large crowd. During his sermon, he didn’t mention his campaign but him being there was a message in itself: I believe what you do. This might be a good message for the evangelicals, but it has other people worried that if elected president, he might mix religion with politics. When asked asked about heaven and who will go there, Huckabee replied with this brilliant answer:

“I’m going to stick to the things that make it critical for me to be president of the United States,” he told reporters. “I have deep convictions about who goes and who doesn’t, but as far as who makes that decision, it isn’t me, it’s God.”

 

In an interview with the Charlotte Observer, Huckabee complained about such questions, saying he followed his preaching career with 10-plus years as governor of Arkansas — more executive branch experience, he said, than any of the other candidates.

 

“(As governor) there’s not one iota of evidence that I ever ran over people with my faith,” he said. “There’s been an unfair focus on the details of my (religious) doctrine. (Romney) was a (lay) bishop in the Mormon church. He wasn’t one who just showed up. But I’ve never heard anybody bring (doctrine) up with him.”

Huckabee has had an impressive record of answering those religious questions dead on with honest answers. However, people need to stop asking these questions because, as stated above, his record as governor speaks for itself about whether he is going to mix religion with politics. So get over the fact that he is an ordained baptist minister, it all boils down to is whether you believe his ideas concerning politics are right or wrong.

If you believe he is the best candidate to be the president then I implore you to go vote him him this Saturday in the South Carolina primary. Go Huckabee!
