Mike Huckabee: "I have opponents in this race who do not want to
change the Constitution. But I believe it's a lot easier to change the
Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God.
And that's what we need to do is amend the Constitution so it's in
God's standards rather than trying to change God's standards so it
lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and
how we treat the family."
As far as I know, this is a historic occasion: our first openly theocratic candidate for president. Sure, there have been others who have advocated policies which clearly violate the church/state separation. But this is the first time we've had a candidate who advocates completely redefining the very philosophical and legal foundations of this country. Fortunately, Huckabee has no chance. I thought the Republicans were supposed to be the strict constructionists?
