Hukabee, God and changing the Constitution
After seeing an article on digg.com this morning regarding statements made by Presidential hopeful Mike Hukabee (R) the need to vote in your state’s presidential primary election is even more important.
According to the article, Mike Hukabee, while being interviewed Monday morning on the MSNBC show “Morning Joe”, stated:
“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 that’s what we need to do — to amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than try to change God’s standards so it lines up with some contemporary view.”
Read the whole article on rawstory: Huckabee: Amend Constitution to be in ‘God’s standards’ and the responses on digg.
No thank you, Mr. Hukabee. Leave my Constitution alone, it’s been disrespected enough by our current failure of a president, George W. Bush.
Personally, I support Congressman Kucinich to be our next president. However, should Kucinich not make it to the general election in November, I will use Dennis Kucinich’s support of run-off voting and support my #2 candidate, Barack Obama.
Voting in your state’s (and party’s) presidential primary election has a direct impact on which candidates become the last to choose from in the November general election. If you don’t vote in the primary and help choose the best candidates you may be left with only choosing the lesser of two evils come general election day.
Whoever you support, get out there and vote in your primary election and the later general election. We, the people, can’t do this without you.
When is my state’s primary election?
I live in Indiana now after moving from Pennsylvania. My state’s presidential primary isn’t until May. A few have passed already but it’s not too late to be a part of change.
I have provided a PDF below that lists the date of each state’s primary election.

Mark you state’s primary date on your calendar, add it to your phone or pda or write it on your hand but don’t forget.
Vote on that day.
Don’t make any excuses, it’s your duty to vote.
This country can’t function properly without you.
Use your vote and voice to tell our government you want undone, the wrongs inflicted on this country and its Constitution by the Bush Administration. Help bring America back to the proud, respected nation it once was.
Vote. America needs you now more than ever.
