"If the Supreme Court chooses to review lower-court decisions regarding the 14th Amendment, that is their prerogative, but my priorities for constitutional amendments are to protect human life and traditional marriage," he said in the statement.
Mr. Huckabee also said on CNN that he hasn't given much thought to the issue of birthright citizenship. But he previously had taken a position in an interview with The Times on his campaign bus in Iowa in August.
"I would support changing that. I think there is reason to revisit that, just because a person, through sheer chance of geography, happened to be physically here at the point of birth, doesn't necessarily constitute citizenship," he said at the time, according to the audiotape of the interview. "I think that's a very reasonable thing to do, to revisit that."
From these statements it may be found that Huckabee questions the anchor baby interpretation of the Constitution and would be pleased that it be "revisited," though he does not want the focus of Constitutional amendment to be taken away from the Human Life Amendment and the Marriage Amendment.
Keep in mind that yesterday's article was not the testimony of Huckabee.
No, it wasn’t his testimony. OTOH, I have read where he does, indeed, support illegals/amnesty.
I am gravely concerned about that (among a few other things) concerning Huckabee.....ending up as president.
I cannot vote for someone merely because they claim to have conservative positions or are a Christian (Bush did so and has proven anything but in many areas, imho).
Don’t ping me to your disingenuous justifications of Huckabee’s lies.
Thanks for the ping, unspun.
I see a lot of negative statements about Huckabee and the other candidates, so many that it just becomes noise.
