Huckabee Changes Faith & Politics Webpage

Mike Huckabee, and ordained Southern Baptist minister who is now the frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination, has raised concerns about blurring the separation of church and state. In an apparent response to address these concerns, the Huckabee campaign has added new text to a webpage devoted to “Faith and Politics.” It begins with new language that states that “The First Ammendment requires that expressions of faith be neither prohibited nor preferred,” along with a checklist of other  principles meant to encapsulate the preacher-politicians beliefs. The page used to begin at paragraph 2, which begins “Faith is my life–it defines me.”
