No Scandal from the Huckabee Campaign

On Thursday January 17th 2008 the Huckabee campaign offered favors to the Sociology 118 class in the form of Reese’s and Twix. This was not a bribe. It was a way of communicating that the Huckabee campaign cares about the people and wants to be on good terms with competitors.
Drew Halfmann, Secretary of State of California, stated that he was not accepting bribes. It was also strongly implied that he enjoyed his Huckabee endorsed Reese’s peanut butter cup. The allegations of foul play are misguided. Huckabee is a woman of principle and does not engage in bribery, nor does she need to with such a strong slate.

Erica Huckabee's Sermon and Prayer at UCD

Thank you, UC Davis for inviting me here to grow with you all in the Word of God.

As always, it is an honor to share the Lord’s word with so many young people. This is an incredible campus attended by passionate and intelligent young adults. I applaud you on all your accomplishments, but I would also like to extend to you some advice: Remember that in life, Faith, Family, and Freedom are the most important. Focus on these three aspects of your life and everything else will follow. My campaign is driven by these three fundamental aspects of life.

In the Bible, there is a story of three courageous young men who stood by their faith unwaveringly and because of that, they changed the face of an entire kingdom. Does anyone know I’m talking about?

I’m talking about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; the three young men who King Nebuchadnezzar threw into a fiery furnace and came out without a singe. It’s an amazing story, the young men were thrown into a fire because they would not betray their faith and bow down to a statue of the king. Now that’s faith…and courage. I find that most people change depending on what is more convenient at the time. But I want to set an example for the people of this nation to stick to their faith, whatever that may mean to them. You see, I am a Christian. But like Jesus, I do not believe that faith and religion should be imposed on anyone. It is the reason why God chose to give us free will, we can choose for ourselves. And as I have said before, I want to put the “candid” back in candidate. I’m being honest about who I am, even though the liberals have tried to use it against me. And I respect those who are honest about who they are. I respect an honest atheist more than a two-faced Christian.

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were men of high caliber; that’s how I want this nation to be: Strong, courageous, and Faithful in the face of all adversity. This is why we need to keep fighting the War on Terror. It is time for the great U.S. of A. to show the world that we are honorable, courageous, and faithful people and that we are certain of the Lord’s merciful deliverance and protection. We need to keep supporting our troops, wherever they go for they are representing and protecting the people of America! And just as God sent an angel to protect the three young men, so will God protect America.

Let’s keep looking at the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These three young men knew the right way to go. While they were imprisoned along with Daniel for again, they did something that I wish that all of America would do. And that is to eat healthy. *laughter* Yes, it sounds funny, but it’s a serious issue here in America. People seem to have forgotten that gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins and are not taking care of themselves. While in prison, the four young men refused to eat anything that would affect their health adversely, in fact, all they ate were bread, fruits, vegetables, and water! Now I am not saying that everyone should be a vegetarian, but I am suggesting that people eat more healthily. So many Americans are suffering from heart diseases, liver diseases, diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol, and the list goes on and on. I myself suffer from diabetes! But you know what? With the help of God and my family by my side I was able to lose 110 pounds and complete 4 marathons! But why wait until we’re sick to be healthy? I am pushing for preventative health! We need to take care of ourselves, for our bodies are the temple of God.

We also need to take care of our environment and our children. God created humanity to hold the role of stewards over the earth. But greed has led us into abusing the earth, taking up resources without any thought to the future. It’s time we become energy efficient and stop being so dependent on oil. And what of our children? Why is it that the children of one of the greatest nations are not receiving the education they deserve? Jesus said, “Let the children come to me; do not stop them for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” They are our hope for the future. We need to give them the education that will allow them to be the best citizens they can be.

I hope that together, with the guiding of hand of God, we can uplift this nation of ours. Through faith, family and freedom, I implore you all to be steadfast in your beliefs. Be like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. And don’t forget that the future of our nation rests with you.

Let us pray.

Dear heavenly father,

We are all here asking for your guidance. May you be our pillar of strength, may you protect us from all evil. Lord, we ask that you gives us strength, courage, and faith to follow you in all that we do. I pray for the youth of this nation, for our troops all over the world, may you be with them and bless them. Father, we know that with you all is possible. It is in your hands that I put my campaign. If it in your will for me to be president, let it be so. Let your holy will be done oh, Father. We love you and ask for your blessings. We ask that you help us uplift America!

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Peace be with you all.

Mike Huckabee Campaign Kickoff!!!

News for Immediate Release


Today, January 10, 2008, Mike Huckabee, former Governor of Arkansas, announced his decision to enter the race for Presidency of the United States of America as a Republican Candidate. His enthusiasm to stop being divided and share one patriotism was received warmly by University of California, Davis students in Sociology 118.In his speech, he declared that, “It’s time to stop looking to the left and to the right. It’s time to start looking up and decide who can uplift this country!”Issues he addressed were health system reform, education reform, tax cuts and energy independence. He stated, “It’s time that this great nation of ours starts paying attention to the education of its children and the trials of good, hard-working Americans.”

This Is Why Huckabee Should Be YOUR President!

"The great example," he said, "is Martin Luther King. He had a dream, not a deadline. He knew you can't change a culture overnight. He was thinking about the next generation, not the next election. And that's the kind of leadership the country is looking for now."
-Washington Post

“He slides from sort of being a preacher to a politician and back — with a combination of good conservative message and a lot of good humor.”
-David Yepsen

“He does not project that harshness, that edge, that a lot of conservatives, particularly on some of the social and cultural issues, oftentimes do.”
-Charlie Cook

"Huckabee’s willingness to cross certain members of his own party makes him something of a maverick in his own right."
-Examiner

Huckabee gave us a reason to pay attention recently when he took on the issue of campaign finance reform.
