No, as president he could close it, that has nothing to do with whether he is legally required to shut it down, or to afford the prisoners there additional rights.
Huckabee’s problem is he does not persuasively deal with allegations of a liberal record. For example, he says (including tonight w Hannity) that he wants to shut Guantanamo down because it’s too soft on the prisoners.

Hannity read the numbers showing he raised by $500 million more than he lowered, and then Huckabee said “Those numbers are probably accurate”.
