We need someone who will fight to protect the GOD-given rights of every human being

We do not need a leader who is "personally prolife" we need one who will fight to protect the GOD-given rights of every human being (as stated in our Declaration). It is NOT a states rights decision. In this election cycle, so far, there isn't an unequivocally pro-life candidate in the GOP race yet. But the quotes below show what kind of leader America needs in 2012:

"Slavery is a moral issue. That's why I define the whole issue of the sanctity of life and marriage not in political terms but in moral terms. If it's a political issue, then it is perfectly legitimate to have 50 different versions."

"This is an issue that is a cornerstone issue of our culture because if we get it wrong; if we somehow ever come to the place where we believe that some lives are worth more than others; that some lives have more value than others; that some people are elevated in worth greater than others, then we will have failed; miserably failed. It is the depth of our commitment to saying that however long it takes, however many years that we must come together, we will continue to stand and we will continue to make our voices heard...this issue is not settled until we have a human life amendment to the Constitution of the United States!

There cannot be a geographical distinction when it comes down to something that is either right or wrong. Abraham Lincoln said over a hundred years ago that if slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong. It would be fair to say that if abortion is not wrong than nothing is wrong. And Ladies and Gentleman, let us settle it today, it is wrong to take the life of an unborn child.

There are those who want to redefine what life means. There are those who want to say that everybody can have his own definition of when life begins and when life is worth living. But I hope as a society and as a culture that we will decide in this nation that we are a culture of life and not a culture of death. For the same reason that we think it's wrong for a parent to strap a bomb to the belly of his own child and blow up the child for his cause, what makes us think that it is OK to expend the life of our children because they might represent an inconvenience to us or an interruption or interference in our lives?

I hope that the day will come when we no longer bring ourselves to a march for the purpose of hoping what we can do but I hope that one day, January 22, will be a day that we will gather so that we can celebrate what we have done to elevate human life; to elevate our culture and to elevate our nation to it's highest and not it's lowest standards of respecting each other as all of us are equal. GOD bless you today for coming out and taking a stand for life."

"Pro-life isn't just a political statement. It goes to the very root and core of who we are and what we think about life. And the core is that we value it."


"The unique part of our country is that we elevate and we celebrate human life."


"Life is really precious, life is God's creation. We don't have a right to interrupt a process He has started."

"Inside every human being there are treasures to unlock."


"You have no idea how many millions of dollars will likely be poured into your state...hardcore political money that is designed to preserve the abortion industry which is a multi million dollar industry specifically designed in order to terminate life and make people rich. This is not about elevating women. This is about elevating wealth on behalf of those who profit from the sale of death.


"It's not about left and right," Huckabee said. "It's about right and wrong."—Mike Huckabee talking about abortion is not about politics or parties.


"I believe the sanctity of a human life is rooted in who we are as a culture and as a civilization. And should we turn our back on this fundamental truth, we have turned our back on the very essence and foundation of who we are as a people."


"For me this is an issue that - as I've said before - it transcends all of the political issues. I've often said I would gladly lose an election before I would ever yield on the issue of the sanctity of human life."

"As a governor I've signed virtually every kind of pro-life legislation that we can sign under existing federal law."

"The American People aren't so much interested in a demolition derby with the other members of the party. There are some real issues that we need to be fighting for and one of them is the sanctity of life."

"However long it takes, however many years that we must come together, we will continue to stand and we will continue to make our voices heard...this issue is not settled until we have a human life amendment to the Constitution of the United States!"

"Can you let the tragedy of abortion go unchecked while we get our financial house in order? I can't. I will not!" — Mike Huckabee

It doesn't take a majority to prevail... rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.— S.Adams

We need a true leader that is more concerned about solving the country's problems than sucker punching the other guys and gouging their eyes out.
We need an
Honorable
Unwavering
Communicator who is
Knowledgeable
Authentic
Bold
Effective
Experienced

America needs hard work, common sense, and integrity, coupled with determination to do the right thing, not the politically correct expedient thing to do.

Sometimes Facts Are Slippery Things

by Mike Huckabee

The President is in campaign mode again. He is traveling around the country campaigning and using the most important issue confronting us as a nation as a weapon to attack Republicans. His latest tactic was to have his campaign send out an email asking his supporters to insist that Congress vote on his jobs bill.

Maybe someone just wasn't paying attention to what is happening on Capitol Hill, but the fact is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is the person blocking a vote on the President's Jobs Bill. In fact, this week Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican Leader in the Senate said the President deserves a vote on his jobs bill, so let's vote on it right now. Harry Reid called it a political stunt, and said no.

Now the President says the Senate will vote on his jobs bill next week. But the bill that Harry Reid says they are going to vote on is one calling for a 5% surtax on millionaires, not the President's bill. That may seem like something that most Americans would favor, but the truth is most Americans don't favor increasing taxes on anyone during this economic crisis.

The President would like to paint this as a situation where Republicans are against what the majority of Americans want. That's simply not true. Most of us recognize that the American dream is still alive, and each person has a chance, with hard work and innovation, to achieve that dream. We also know that we won't achieve that dream by coveting what our neighbors have accomplished.

Candidate Obama needs to get back to Washington, act as the President and get to work with leaders in Congress to really put the facts out there for the American people to make up their own minds.

Facts can be slippery things, but trying to change them to suit a political agenda never works. Americans are too smart for that.

"Perhaps Now is the Time"

by Randy Davis on Tuesday, October 4, 2011 at 10:45pm

I would favor Governor Mike Huckabee by a mile over anyone else in the GOP race. I hear from people all over the nation hoping he will reconsider getting back in. When he said "my heart says no" he clearly stipulated...."for now."
...
He is in a class of his own and would be the immediate adult on the debate stage with more experience, wisdom, and class than everyone else combined. His communication skills would even be envied by Ronald Reagan.

He also has the uncanny ability to communicate the conservative message without being obstinate and polarizing. He would garner votes from Independents, women, and minorities like no other conservative. And yes, he would beat Obama and he would beat him badly- like "in the landslide of the century."

Still—this is a decision for him to make. I know of no evidence that he IS re-considering, but with the clock running out— I can understand supporters wondering what he may now be thinking, especially since he implied he would perhaps be open to taking another look at the field in "the fall" to see if there was a clear frontrunner and/or if there was a strong candidate to carry the fiscal and social conservative message all the way to the White House. There isn't. Instead there is a gaping hole the size of the Grand Canyon on steroids, especially with the definitive "no" by Chris Christie. [AW:adding the Palin no as well]

He has downplayed the rumors he was "reconsidering"- but still did not categorically say "no." If the GOP leadership wants an epic landslide in 2012, perhaps now is the time to set up camp on his doorstep.

A prayer, exhortation and encouragement for Governor Huckabee

"The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything."— Albert Einstein

Will GOD redirect you Governor Huckabee? I don't know but I am convinced that the amount of people praying for you Governor Huckabee and the depth of agreement on the hope that you would make the choice to enter the 2012 race was from the LORD GOD to our spirits.

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader."—John Q. Adams


Governor Huckabee, you have inspired us to go and be the somebodies and do the somethings.

You encouraged us by example to seek out revelation and direction: "I have long depended on Scripture not only as a refuge but also for direction. Since I was 18 I've read a chapter in Proverbs every morning, getting through the whole book each month. For me, that's a source of daily inspiration and guidance. I really believe most good, sound management decisions can be gleaned from the principles you'll find in the book of Proverbs.”

You admonished us, "These are the days of Elijah! How long will we falter? We've got to say we are going to live our lives as unto to the LORD! These are the days of Elijah!"

You have taught us that character makes a difference. "Character is the issue, and your character makes the difference every day—in the work you do, the candidates you vote for, the people who look to you for leadership. My hope is... that you will live your faith proudly and support and uplift fellow Christians as we work together to build GOD’s kingdom."

You instilled in us "that doing the right thing is precisely what America must doing order to achieve the goals that conservatives (actually everyone) want—lower taxes, less government, safer streets and neighborhoods, prosperous businesses, good jobs, good schools, access to affordable health care, secure borders, strong marriages and families, growing productivity, and personal liberties." You exhorted us with "My hope and prayer is that you'll commit to doing your part to change America's future by deciding that whatever others choose to do, you will Do the Right Thing."

You gave us the true meaning of the small but powerfully inspiring word "hope," pointing out that progress for our country cannot
happen with the continued bipartisan rift dividing it.

You highlighted for us 12 “Stops” to restoring America’s greatness. The stops refer to things that we must stop doing; stop “being cynical,” stop “abusing our planet,” stop “robbing the taxpayers,” stop “the heat and turn on the light for hot issues,” stop “the loss of America’s prestige at home and abroad,” and–my favorite–stop “being a selfish citizen,” and offered “12 Action Steps” that set specific standards we ought to hold our political leaders accountable to and specific principles by which we ought to be governed.

You tapped into the fundamental core of every American, confronting matters closest at hand with the call for a critical change in perspective and a clear plan of action that shows what we can become as a truly indivisible nation.

You told us about Twelve Things We really need from Washington (and a Trillion we Don't). You have us nodding in agreement with these twelve essential truths, whether we were Republican, an Independent, or an open-minded Democrat. "We need a simple government. Don't get me wrong; I know that many of the nation's problems are highly complex. But I also know the governing principles that can solve them, if we work together, are simple."

You showed us that "The kind of leader we will be, is tied directly to what kind of follower we were for those who blazed the trail before us. Someone is likely following in our footsteps in the same way, we're following others. One of the reasons we're commanded to congregate in mutual fellowship is so we can gain strength from those with whom we fly. They in turn can gain strength from us. When we are weary and lag behind, the encouragement of others becomes like the honking of the geese, cheering us on toward the next step, the next day, the next challenge."

You interceded for us, "I pray that GOD will raise up spiritual leaders who will not let this nation fall. Not a partisan battle, but a battle against good & evil. There are things that are right and things that are wrong. There are some things that are Holy."

You can help "us put aside our differences, tone down the partisan rancor, and return to the simple principles of the Founding Fathers: liberty, justice, personal freedom, and civic virtue." And you "can help us tackle even the most seemingly complicated of today's problems."

GOD has used you to teach, inspire, encourage, and empower us to go the extra mile, dream the impossible and lift others up to reach for the stars. To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1
Is this the season GOD is calling you to lead us by running for president 2012? What, then, shall we say in response to this? If GOD is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31

By the way, I learned most of this from these books:

Living Beyond Your Lifetime: How to be intentional about the Legacy You Leave
From Hope to Higher Ground
Do the Right Thing
A Simple Government
Twelve Things We really need from Washington (and a Trillion we Don't)
