I want Huckabee to win the Republican nomination.
I want him to win, not because I think he’s the most beatable, or for any nefarious purpose, but because I think he’s genuine. I like him. I wouldn’t vote for him, because my views mesh better with any of the Democratic candidates, but because I want his views heard. I want Huckabee to have a seat at the table when policy is discussed.
I know this post is just a rehash of what I said twice before, but then my thought was, “What am I missing?” Now the ideas are settled. I want Huckabee on the national stage. I want his ideas heard, and him to be part of solutions for this country. I want him help make policy.
Huckabee is a man you can work with, and has people’s best interests at heart, even if on some policies he has naïve views. (Regressive 28% National Sales Tax, I’m looking at you.)
If there was some sort of Obama kumbiya unity government, I’d want Huckabee in it. I don’t know how or where, but I want his opinions heard and taken into account.
