And by the way, Huckabee’s answer for opposing the bill to deny illegals certain social welfare benefits is what he argued was redundant.
But opposing a bill requiring proof of citizenship is NOT on the books in Arkansas - therefore, not redundant.
And he SUPPORTED giving illegals driver’s licenses.
How can you explain that?
I explain that as a part of the "globalism is good" stupidity that was going on with "new-Whigs," liberals, and libertarians alike, in the times before the big American boot came down, in 2007. And yes, it still is alive, but at least Huckabee is aiming toward more nationalism now, and making a big point of national sovereignty (fence, LAWS, etc.). The pressure must be kept up on all these guys. And I mean all.
I'm not saying Mike Huckabee is perfect. Far from it. I would tend to even agree with Joe Scarborough's appraisal. But like Joe, I'm leaning hard Huckabee's way, compared to the other candidates who have a chance of winning.
I understand Fred Thompson has a chance -- until SC anyway -- but I believe his chance of gaining us a General Election victory are the slimmest but for Duncan Hunter's chances.
