MIKE HUCKABEE & COMMON CORE: ECUMENICAL SOUTHERN BAPTIST IGNORANCE, STUPIDITY & NAIVETE DOESN'T MAKE FOR PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL

IF THE GOVERNORS COLLABORATED 

ON COMMON CORE,

WAS HUCKABEE ABSENT OR UNINVITED?

PROPAGANDIZED PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE? 

HE DRANK OF THE CUP OF DECEPTION 

WITHOUT DISCERNMENT!

FAILED TO RESEARCH COMMON CORE'S RADICAL COMMUNIST

ROOTS OF INDOCTRINATION & INCOME REDISTRIBUTION 

BUT STILL LIKES THE FEDERAL APPROACH 

TO DECIDING EDUCATION STANDARDS!

SEE HOW SENSIBLE & MODERATE HE IS!

MIKE HUCKABEE 

A DEMONSTRATED STATIST, 

ECUMENIST, & MORAL RELATIVIST 

AT THE CORE

OPPOSED TO FEDERAL CURRICULUM

BUT OK WITH FEDERAL STANDARDS

HUCKABEE: “Common Core is dead, 

but common sense should not be.”

THE "TERM" COMMON CORE 

BY ANY OTHER NAME

WOULD STILL BE A ROTTEN APPLE

BELOW THE SKIN

SINCE THE STATES ALREADY 

TOOK THE BRIBERY MONEY 

In 2008, Pastor Ralph Ovadal summed up Huckabee is this short statement. It was at least one pastor who could presciently size up another extremely well:

January 2, 2008 Beware of Mike Huckabee

"Beware of Mike Huckabee. He is basely using our Lord Jesus Christ for political gain even as he promotes Antichrist and his church. Mike Huckabee is a wolfish product of the neo-evangelical movement which, quite frankly, is the major problem in this nation, not the solution. Beyond that, Huckabee's political philosophy is grossly at odds with the principles upon which our Republican form of government rests. Politically speaking, Mr. Huckabee has far more in common with Bill Clinton than with America's founding fathers. We would be far, far better off with a simple "God and country" constitutionalist for president who doesn't claim to be a born-again believer. After carefully watching and listening to Mike Huckabee with an open mind, about the only good thing I can say concerning his candidacy for president is at least it keeps him too busy to pastor a church."Pastor Ralph Ovadal Pilgrims Covenant Church _______________________________________________________________________ SEE ALSO:  RALPH OVADAL'S "MORE THAN THESE~A CALL FOR REFORMATION~A HISTORY OF HOW THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT HAS ADVANCED THE CAUSE OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH" AT  http://www.pccmonroe.org/Ecumenism/morethanthese.htm, AND AT: http://www.pccmonroe.org/ecumenism/morethanthese.pdf EXCERPT: "An ecumenical epidemic has broken out in America. These days, many evangelical Christians accept Roman Catholics as “brothers and sisters in Christ” and the Roman Catholic Church as a Christian church, albeit with some unbiblical “doctrinal distinctives.” Pastor Ralph Ovadal believes that the pro-life movement has been one of the key factors, if not the key factor, in desensitizing Christians to the danger and sin of accepting the Roman Catholic Church as Christian. In More Than These, Pastor Ovadal begins with the Second Vatican Council of 1962-1965 and documents how the Roman Catholic Church has systematically used the pro-life movement, with the help of Christians, to advance its ecumenical strategy." _______________________________________________________________________ Ovadal also includes an interview done with Catholic Online at: http://www.catholic.org/national/national_story.php?id=26312,  wherein Huckabee admits he has no problem associating with, agreeing with, and working with Catholics, meanwhile attributing the Catholic Church as having a leadership role in social causes such as abortion. This is no great surprise, since being an ordained Southern Baptist minister, he would have no problem "slowly becoming Catholic" (SBC) in line with his denomination's direction. ______________________________________________________________ Here is Huckabee's Letter to the Oklahoma Legislators, June 3, 2013, which is clear evidence that he was, and still is, in favor of federal intrusion into education despite three laws prohibiting same. He believed, and still believes that federal standards and curriculum can be separate, with states, local school boards, teachers, and parents deciding on curriculum. Such is not the reality, since 45 states took money from the federal government on the condition that all curriculum would be aligned to the Common Core standards. Could he be that misinformed?

Many of you voted in favor of these standards in 2010. You were right to stand for these improved standards then and you are right to stand for these improved standards still today.  These standards, known as Common Core State Standards, have been near and dear to my heart since I served as Governor of your neighboring state of Arkansas. And it’s disturbing to me there have been criticisms of these standards directed by other conservatives including the RNC. The truth of the matter is, these criticisms are short-sighted.  Like many of you, I’ve heard the argument these standards “threaten local control” of what’s being taught in Oklahoma classrooms. Speaking from one conservative to another, let me assure you this simply is not true. States and local school districts will determine how they want to teach kids, what curriculum to use, and which textbooks to use.  These Common Core State Standards evolved as governors and state leaders were talking about what we could do together to raise standards--not a Washington solution, but a voluntary effort on the part of the leaders of the states. In fact conversations about these standards began long before President Obama occupied the White House.  Common Core State Standards are a state driven solution to address the large number of high school graduates who have to take remedial courses in college. In your state of Oklahoma, six out of every ten students who go to college need remedial courses. That’s a lot of money being thrown out of the window by families who’ve worked hard to be able to send their child to college. Imagine finding out your child’s ACT test score wasn’t high enough to get her into college, or that she if she did get in, ended up taking two semesters worth of classes that don’t count toward her college degree. That means you’re paying university prices  for what your child was supposed to learn for free in high school.  From an economic and workforce development perspective, these standards are critical. Innovation driving the successful companies in Oklahoma requires them to have the best people. That means having an education system that consistently delivers a quality education so that every child graduates high school prepared for college and career. These standards ensure Oklahoma remains competitive in the race to attract companies with the highest paying jobs for Oklahomans that deserve nothing less. Not only do these standards help the Oklahoma economy, they also help the families serving our country. Children of military families will not fall behind when their parents, who've chosen to defend our freedom, are asked to move from Fort Benning, Georgia to Fort Sill in Lawton or Vance Air force base in Enid.  I hope you’ll join me and other conservatives, including many Oklahoma parents, educators and business leaders, in making it known these standards are valuable for our future. They’re not something to be afraid of; indeed they are something to embrace.  Best  Governor Mike Huckabee  ______________________________________________________ THE DISINGENUOUS  "I WANT TO KNOW MORE,  AND HOPE YOU STAY IGNORANT"  VIDEOS  MEANT TO MUDDY THE WATERS  AND FOOL MANY:  "Huckabee: 'Common Core is dead, but common sense shouldn't be'": (A Lesson Huckabee hasn't learned for himself!) STILL WANTS FEDERAL STANDARDS THOUGH! Common Core Confusion -  Should There Be National Standards In Education?  Huckabee's Willing Ignorance Lives On!  (No Mention of Bill Gates' Millions of Dollars  Injected Into Common Core): BILL GATES QUOTE: “identifying common standards is not enough. We’ll know we’ve succeeded when the curriculum and the tests are aligned to these standards… to create just these kinds of tests—next-generation assessments aligned to the common core. When the tests are aligned to the common standards, the curriculum will line up as well—and that will unleash powerful market forces in the service of better teaching.” Kyle Olson of EAG NEWS http://eagnews.org/ spars with Mike Huckabee over Common Core: HUCKABEE ABANDONS COMMON CORE,  EYES 2016 PRESIDENTIAL BID: SEE:  http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/12/09/Huckabee-Abandons-Common-Core-As-He-Eyes-2016-Presidential-Bid. EXCERPTS: "In distancing himself from Common Core, however, Huckabee accused others of “hijacking” the standards for the purpose of personal data collection and indoctrination." "The notion that the Common Core standards were “hijacked” by “others” is interesting in light of Breitbart News’ report last week that the origins of Common Core can be found in the ties among Barack Obama and Bill Ayers, who were on the board of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), founded by radical communist Ayers and for which Obama served as chairman, and current U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan, who was CEO of the Chicago Public Schools. The purpose of the CAC was indoctrination and income redistribution." ALSO SEE:  http://truthinamericaneducation.com/common-core-state-standards/disecting-mike-huckabees-statement-on-the-common-core/. EXCERPTS: "The first red flag was that he doesn’t support “what Common Core has become” meaning he supported it in its original form.  This is an inadequate response because it doesn’t recognize problems inherent with the standards themselves regardless of what curriculum publishers and the Federal government has done." "I do appreciate the strong statement on data collection, but it is pretty easy to find consensus around that point.  Even so this statement ignores the fact that those involved working on the Common Core State Standards and its assessments planned it as a tool to collect student data.  This was during the development of the Common Core, not something that happened after the fact.  When the chief architect of the Common Core’s ELA standards lauded the use of student data it’s hard to say this wasn’t part of the Common Core.  Maybe that wasn’t what individual Governor’s had in mind, but it wasn’t Governors who wrote the standards to begin with." "From his book, Simple Government, Huckabee wrote, “although I believe education should be left to the states, I fully endorse the new federal program Race to the Top, which has states compete for additional education funds." "So Race to the Top was designed as carrot and stick program, which Governor Huckabee thought was a good thing, “a clever way to prod states to embrace much needed reform,” to use his words.  So this program gave directives to states who were strapped for cash to adopt the Common Core Standards (I thought he was against federal standards?)" He bemoans federal involvement in the Common Core, but he lauded the very program that gave them a foothold."
