Highlights of Vertical Day
July 23, 2008 11:30 pm UncategorizedHuckabee has been hosting vertical day on the HuckPAC blog where candidates for office, distinguished guest and ideas talk about how to move our country forward vertically: upward, that is. Huckabee explains the concept of Vertical politics, taking America up and not down. The Governor explains:
Representative Sam Graves (R-MO) explains why illegal immigration poses a threat to our nation’s security.
A Candidate for the Texas House of Representatives Brian Walker talks about the preciousness of human life. Indiana Congressional Candidate Luke Puckett relates a personal story to explain his pro-life position.
Senator Lamar Alexander (R-TN) urges passage of the Child Custody Protection Act which protects children and parents from those who would abscond with minor children to take them across state lines to get abortions in contravention of their home state laws.
Want to talk tax reform? The original sponsor of the Fair Tax (H.R. 25) Rep. John Linder (R-GA) shows up with a post on his tax proposal.
Senator “Big” John Cornyn (R-TX) gives the answer to America’s energy problems: All of the Above.
What makes this HuckPAC event interesting is that Huckabee sought posts from regular citizens. Eight were chosen. My favorite is from Brian Donegan who has a great post with some thoughtful ideas for education reform.
Mike Huckabee didn’t get to be as active as he wanted in this Vertical Day due to being delayed in leaving Africa. His Daughter Sarah has a positive note on the folks behind HuckPAC, and they definitely deserve some praise.
They’ve managed to bring together a very distinguished guest list of posters with some fabulous posts on the issues. It represents a job well done by the Governor and all the folks at HuckPAC.
