Why would anyone NOT support Huckabee?

Question

He feels the need for healthcare reform, BUT not UHC

He is against abortion, BUT feels that children should have ready access to health care and a good education

He is for securing our borders and no Amnesty

he supports dismantling the IRS and instituting a fair tax - which is truly a fair tax - more people can save for those "rainy days" (i.e., illness, retirement, whatever they choose)

And he is hilarious

How could anyone not support him?

Oh and he supports the use of existing stem cells for reasearch, BUT does not support creating new life to obtain stem cells

It sounds like he has got a solution for everything!

Actually "Wai" - its called compromise, something you obviously dont understand.

Answer 1

My reason is because he is a Republican. However, if I belonged to that party, he would get my vote...mainly because he seems like an honest conservative, which is rare. And, he has a sense of humor!

Answer 2

No a huge no for Jimmy carter, he the worst president in historic past, Huckabee is an entire international away diverse. i do no longer think of he could be the nominee,yet just to teach you the version, human beings knock him because of the fact he's a Christian. To day on the information it confirmed bill and Hillary sitting in a church pew and that they have got been appearing like all of them have been into it. at this church they have been worshiping with our black brothers in Christ, they weren't theref desirous to serve the Lord, they have been there to get forward Obama interior the polls. ,and to adhere it to him ,they used his sturdy black brothers to rub it in. yet you haven't any longer heard one concern approximately them applying faith , it is what makes human beings want to pull for Huckabee. human beings basically losing interest with the double standards, .Hillary and bill might have picked up some votes. yet they misplaced end some additionally.

Answer 3

I really like Huckabee. I just wish he would elaborate on the words "healthcare reform." That could mean anything. I sincerely hope it's an overhaul of the broken insurance system and going back to more free-market healthcare. I also really like Duncan Hunter. It's a toss-up between those two for me right now.

Answer 4

You have given us plenty of reasons not to support him

He wants to place a vague band aid of encouraging providers to lower costs on a health system that costs twice the developed world average yet produces third world results. He is not prepared to address that nearly 50 million Americans have almost no access to this system.
He spouts on about rights but wants to refuse women the right to control thier own reproductive systems.
He is prepared to ignore the reality that 15 million illegal aliens cannot simply be loaded onto a truck and driven out.
The fair tax is not fair. The poor have a higher propensity to spend and a lower propensity to spend outside the country. Hence the fair tax (being entirely consumption driven) is inherently regressive and will shift the burden of taxation away from those who can most afford to pay.

But to add to that

He has admitted that his faith drives him and so he will be unable to address issues other than from the perspective of a narrow interpretation of ancient middle eastern mythology

He uses the tired old "food self sufficiency is an element of national security" argument to justify mass subsidies to corporate giants in the agriculture industry. He does not address the painfully obvious corollary of that argument - why is the US subsidizing agricultural exports and so undermining other nations' national security?

I do not support him because he is just another extreme right winger with no solutions to the damage the current administration has done to our country - rather to keep heading us down the same path.

Answer 5

Huckabee had excellent views on critical issues not he lacks the support of people since he has not that much money like Hillary Clinton.

VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know who will likely win.

Answer 6

He might be the best republican in the current field, but the sad fact is that in order for any politician to have a chance, they must be able to raise enough money to have a shot.

The big problem for me is that he is a republican, and like all the other republicans, his answer will be huge deficits, big military, which means even bigger government, bigger wrong kind of government, and every repub candidate on the current field will continue on with this direction, and there is nothing constitutional at all about it. Reagan didn't give a hoot about the U.S. constitution, trading arms for hostages, and neither does any other repub.

Answer 7

Sounds great, but whats the real difference between Huckabee, Romney, Giuliani, and Thompson. Listening to them is like flipping through the TV channels and seeing the same re-run is on every station.

I like Ron Paul for a couple of reasons that to me sets him apart. #1. He looks to the Constitution to form his policies. His thought process along is refreshing. This is suppose to be a nation of laws. Not a nation of doing what sounds good at the time. #2. He's more conservative than the other 4 could ever hope to be. Less taxes, less government in our daily lives. Ronald Reagan made numerous speeches on this subject, yet the Republicans have forgot what got them in power in the first place. The country didn't elect a Democrat congress because they shifted to the left. They did it because the Republican leadership just don't get it. #3. Paul has an understanding of our country's history and how we've gotten in the mess we're in today. Which is because we have strayed from our principles. We have the cart so far in front of the horse, its going to take a generation of getting back to basics to see our economy, our sovereignty, our security and our respect, get back to where it was a century ago.

I for one am tired of having a bunch of country club rich boy pricks to choose from for our nations leaders.

Answer 8

He is my candidate, I have many of the same views and like the way he thinks. I read above me that some one has a problem with the fact that Huckabeeis lead by his faith is a bad thing. I like him more because of that, if he is a strong follower of his faith like he says we will see less lieing and stuff that recent presidents have been doing.

Answer 9

does anyone really think they will be taxed less, with a fair tax.... seriously?

maybe if you're wealthy... but most people aren't... the wealthy pay the vast majority of taxes now, and under this plan THEY PROBABLY WON'T BE anymore... so where's the money going to come from...

and Republicans love to say "children should have ready access to health care and a good education"... they just don't really like to do anything about it...

where's Arkansas in education and health care?

I hear a lot of talk... not a lot of actual facts... and the few details I am hearing seem a little "too good to be true" to the point of being silly...

Answer 10

Because I support John McCain.
