A direct quote from Huckabee.... he wants to take passages of the bible and incorporate them into the Constitution to convert the US into his version of a "Christian Nation", something the US never was.
“I have opponents in this race who do not want to change the Constitution. But I believe it’s a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God. And thats what we need to do is amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than trying to change God’s standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family.”
Whose version of G*d? His? And if you aren't his version of Christian?
Afraid yet? You should be.
