Huckabee is the man for Conservatives and Christians. The so-called top tier is so afraid of him getting to the debates because he would trounce all of them.
He has been consistent in his views. Some criticize him for raising taxes as a governor but they never tell the whole story. He worked with Dems (gasp!) to provide higher teacher pay and a state-wide conservation effort to clean up and preserve the nature of THE NATURAL STATE.
You owe it to yourself and everyone else who is sick of the top-tier to check him out.

Actually, on March 12, he did announce he will be seeking the presidency. It's no longer exploratory.
As for national security being the most important issue, I would disagree with you there. Whether or not one agrees about the threat of terrorists and how one deals with them, it becomes a moot point if the U.S. economy takes a nose-dive. You can't pay your military if your currency becomes worthless.
Having been the world's reserve currency for more than 30 years, if countries begin to move out of the U.S. dollar, the flood of dollars in circulation would cause a massive devaluation of our money. Considering how many countries disdain our foreign policy, this isn't merely an academic exercise, but a possible scenario. You have the potential of panic, like in Weimer, Germany, as well as a nationwide recession on the level of the Great Depression.
If communist China alone, with over $1 trillion dollars in U.S. reserves, sold their reserves into circulation, you'd see the middle class virtually disappear, and those below the poverty line and the elderly on fixed incomes would suffer the most. It gets worse when foreign investors begin to move away from investing in the U.S. and the dollar.

I actually raised the “fair trade” issue in Hunter's Facebook group and didn't really get a decent response. Beyond saying he supports “fair trade” he doesn't really define it- that troubles me. But so far it's he's only said that in relation to China, and I'm not sure we should have absolutely free trade with them. So I'd say he's at best questionable on the issue and needs to clarify his position. I like him on every other issue I've seen so far.
From what I've seen of Ron Paul, I disagree with him on national security, and that to me is the most important issue this coming election. Also, he's not officially a candidate yet.

Boooooo!
I thought you were a fiscal conservative. Duncan Hunter supports “fair trade.”
Ron Paul is the best presidential candidate.
this guy understands the Constitution

he's a shoulder to lean on for old women, as his website shows
