I won't trust anyone who has or had minister, reverend, or father in their name. We've had enough of the annointed one. I want a candidate who's religon is not a litmus test for presidency

Oh, what an open minded person! Must be a liberal democrat that believes in being tolerant for everyone but those who profess a Christian faith. Amadeus, I truly don't think you would want to live in a world without Christians and Christian leaders. Unless you don't believe in things such as hospitals, soup kitchens, Salvation Army, Red Cross, etc., etc. .. Or maybe you would prefer an atheist leader such as Stalin, or Hitler. Or we could have another Lewinsky/Clinton saga for our nation to endure. Wouldn't that be nice...:(The person we elect MUST know they are accountable to someone greater than themselves or they will think they are accountable to no one. Or they will simply flow with the polls so they can be elected again. That is not leadership. That is politics. And I do not trust anyone that is merely a politician! That..we have had enough of! As of now, Huckabee is definitely getting my vote. He is the only one that seems truly sincere and I believe will make the best decisions based on what is right, not what what the polls are saying.

I think we should only trust someone who has been or is a Minister, Reverend, or Pastor. We've had enough of the un-annointed ones. I want a candidate who's religon is a litmus test for the presidency.

The Huckster is a joke. He's weak on crime. He wanted to parole everyone in prison. One, he did and he killed someone. He raised taxes before he gave us a tax cut. So cant he really say he cut taxes? HIs wife would would be a great first lady. The Huskster is another Bush cowboy. His record tells all. If you can find them. He had all the computer hardrives demolished when he left office. Sooner or later the truth will come out.

How foolish could someone be to say I'd rather trust a lawyer than a minister (see the knuckle head response above)? You people are like sheep; you will be lead by democrats who will ruin this country with higher taxes, more bureaucracy, lies and stipulations for illegal immigrants. When our country folds, blame yourself for not voting for someone LIKE HUCKABEE!!!

Look for Mike Huckabee to ride his current successes to future victories.

The Huckster doesnt need push polls. Could backfire.
Huckabee is 'Reaganesque': a great communicator, iconic optimist, and a strong former governor. He is also 'Lincolnesque': frugal beginnings, a great visionary, and a man of solid spiritual and moral convictions. He will become a greater president than Ronald Reagan! Its good news that conservatives with vast resources are trying to help him now.

Amadeus I agree wholeheartedly we have laws about the separation of church and state. Wouldn't it be great if we had a law about separation of church and politicking?
When King Karl was grooming Bush for a life of politics he told him to get off the sauce and then get religion.

Everything is a joke or funny punchline to Huckabee. He has not said one straightforward meaningful thing yet. In all his debates, he has not answered a single question,He has laughed off a real answer. While I appreciate a sense of humor, I want a straight answer out of Huckabee concerning what he will do about terrorism, foreign policy, healthcare, education or gas prices. America has serious issues and we need a serious candidate. This funny guy act is amusing, but wearing thin.

I believe Mike Huckabee is the only right candidate on the slate at this time - Democrat or Republican.
He needs to come to Missouri and say Hi to the folks in Saline County. Even this mostly Democrat county would listen to someone with fresh ideas and a sense of humor.

To those of you who bad mouths someone for being a Christian- shame on you. I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ and I am so happy that Mr. Huckabee isn't either!! What are you all afraid of? Your battle is not with Mike it is with the Lord

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints "a Mormon" for the past 23 years, I can not understand how people can say that "mormons are or are not Christian" What right do we have to tell another person what they are or are not?
I am Mormon and I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that he showed us a perfect way to live. I know that he died for all mankind and I know He lives even now and mourns at how His message is used so unrighteously.
What makes someone a Christian is not that they go to church, wear a cross or just claim to be. It is how they live. The choices they make with their time, talents and rescourses and mostly how they treat & act toward others. I try every day to be a Christian. Somedays I'm not so good. For that I'm eternally greatful that He gave us the gift of repentance.

I found this snip tucked away at the bottom of an article this morning, almost missed it.

NBC's Chris Donovan reminds folks of a lesser-quoted speech JFK made in 1960 in Salt Lake City… It might be of note that just 11 days after Senator John Kennedy gave his religion speech in Houston in September 1960, he went to Salt Lake City to give a speech at the Mormon Tabernacle in which he had a few nice things to say about Mormons. "Tonight I speak for all Americans in expressing our gratitude to the Mormon people -- for their pioneer spirit, their devotion to culture and learning, their example of industry and self-reliance. But I am particularly in their debt tonight for their successful battle to make religious liberty a living reality -- for having proven to the world that different faiths of different views could flourish harmoniously in our midst -- and for having proven to the Nation in this century that a public servant devout in his chosen faith was still capable of undiminished allegiance to our Constitution and national interest."

The public servant Kennedy referenced was Senator Reed Smoot, an apostle in the Mormon church, who had to fight a four-year challenge to the right to his Senate seat over questions of whether or not he would be loyal to his religion versus his country. He was re-elected four times. Kennedy explained: "The story of Reed Smoot symbolizes the long struggle of the Mormon people for religious liberty. They suffered persecution and exile, at the hands of Americans whose own ancestors, ironically enough, had fled here to escape the curse of intolerance. But they never faltered in their devotion to their principle of religious liberty -- not for themselves alone, but for all mankind."
