Ending months of speculation, Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas and a Baptist minister, will formally announce his candidacy for president today, joining a quickly growing field of GOP candidates. With his entry, the Republican field is shaping up to be the year of the Christian conservative presidential candidate — perhaps reflecting a backlash against the Obama years, which many have perceived as hostile to conservative Christianity.
Christian Post Report – The Washington Post describes him as arguably “the most underrated candidate in the race.” Unlike most of the other candidates, Huckabee has experience running for president. He won the Iowa Caucuses in 2008 and obtained valuable experience in the primary debates. Becoming the governor of Arkansas shortly after Bill Clinton, he knows how to deal with the Clinton machine and take on Hillary. The Post notes that he is the only Southern populist in the race, and is not seen as a Washington insider, since he has never worked in D.C.
