The whole point of being a Christian is to penetrate the darkness, is to preserve the things that are spoiling, and I don't know of anything more spoiled, more decadent, than politics.”
Mike Huckabee believes in ‘GodTube’
Republican candidate Mike Huckabee this week announced that he is a supporter of ‘GodTube', the all-Christian version of YouTube that carries the motto ‘Broadcast Him'. Both religion and the internet are important parts of American electioneering. So why not kill two birds with one stone? Funnily enough, the declaration came at the same time as the site's announcement that it would start an online poll. And guess who's in the lead? None other than the Republican favourite Mike Huckabee, with almost 40% of the votes. Here is Huckabee's declaration of support and a collection of the best videos from the site.

Let's imagine a world with
Soumis par Sina (non vérifié) le sam, 02/02/2008 - 17:50.Let's imagine a world with Huckabee as a US President and Chuck Norris as his minister of foreign affair. No doubt the world would be much safer. that guy is just a freak. Having him in the three main republican candidate is a disgrace for the USA.

Not even enough...
Soumis par Filippo Bertoni le mar, 05/02/2008 - 10:17.Unfortunately he is not just a freak... As W. Bush before him and as many others in other countries (as an Italian in this moment I can only envy other countries for their governments and their systems that are in any case less corrupted then ours...) Huckabee is a very foxy and tricky politician.
In a country were ideologies are very important and religion is deeply rooted in the social fabric such a public declaration is simply a way of conquering new voters.
The big point is understanding how democracy ended up to be such a populist version of totalitarianism. And the solution could be only in a more open and critic education, in order to free us from the closures of a non-critic acceptation of the so called "natural" way things are.
