Because he has a funny name. The only name better would be President Dingalingadoo.

Seriously, I've not met one person that supports him and I'm intrigued what would possess a person to vote for this guy.

Let's just say that I share similar fundamental beliefs with Huckabee.

I am not a progressive individual when it comes to social issues.

I also like his views on immigration and health care. I think we need a Republican in office for economic reasons as well.

Like I said, I am pretty much contrary to the rest of the thread

Not defending slavery in any way, shape, or form, but abortion is worse than slavery in my mind.

As open minded as everyone seems to be on this thread, I figure that they are still open to listening opinions drastically different from the opposition.

I am for sure in the minority here

The economic health of the country has nothing to do with the war.

The current economic debacle can be attributed to the housing bubble and poor mortgage lending standards. These issues have put the economy in a position where the necessary actions politically to stimulate an economy will most likely come from a Republican. Tax increases and universal health care are not the types of items that are exactly the measures that should be taken when the economy is slowing. Stimulus from the government, i.e. tax cuts for corporations to bolster economic growth and create jobs, are items that Republicans can offer a struggling economy.

I agree, the war is not a determining factor by itself. However it is a massive and unnesccesary drain on the economy. So what in your view were the republicans doing for the past 7 years?

the trickle down theory. Give those who have more as it is- tax breaks in the hopes that they decide to throw the middle class a bone every now and then. Flawed logic, that sometimes works.

You can't draw a line in the sand and say that "now it's human". 'Pro-lifers' need to understand the world isn't black and white.

Tough call on abortion for me...still on the fence about that one. I say if they do an MRI on one of those fetuses and find brain activity, then that's something to consider.

The war isn't a drain on the economy, just a debt to the federal government.

The billions that are spent are spent on to support the effort provide jobs and is actually a stimulus to the economy.

The economic struggles as of later are a result of falling real estate values and poor lending practices that have have their own trickle down effect (negatively) on our economy.

Not flawed in my opinion, it provides opportunity for growth.

Politicans that push for tax increases in times like these will only push the economy farther into the economic abyss.

Why do you believe that it is flawed?

Your're giving tax dollars-most of which were provided by the working class-to those who are already wealthy.

It's the working class that needs the bailout. A CEO can afford to heat his house...some of us in the working class can't...I think it was 3 degrees F last night here. That's a problem when we can't even afford the basics.

Give the tax breaks or rebates or checks to the working class, the people who need it, rather than hope some CEO is gonna decide to open up some factory and provide jobs. Chances are he'll outsource anyway.

trickle down theory is like a huge banquest feast for the burgeois, while the working class beg at the table for a bone to be thrown their way every once in a while.

The proletariat have every right-more so- to eat at that table. They built this county and keep it running. Without us there is no America.
