Well, I have finally made my decision for the presidential candidate I support in 2008. I've read about him, and he is the one consistent candidate who has stood firmly on issues without wavering, flip-flopping or anything like that. He recently surged to second place behind Governor Romni in a poll related to the upcoming Iowa primary.
That candidate is Mike Huckabee. I will let him speak for himself. This is borrowed from his site. It is his stands on various issues combined into one document.

SANCTITY OF LIFE
I support and have always supported passage of a
constitutional amendment to protect the right to
life. My convictions regarding the sanctity of life
have always been clear and consistent, without
equivocation or wavering. I believe that Roe v.
Wade should be over-turned.
MARRIAGE
I support and have always supported passage of a
federal constitutional amendment that de nes
marriage as a union between one man and one
woman. As President, I will ght for passage of
this amendment. My personal belief is that
marriage is between one man and one woman,
for life.
HEALTH CARE
Our health care system is making our businesses
non-competitive in the global economy. It is time
to recognize that jobs don't need health care,
people do, and move from employer-based to
consumer-based health care.
TAXES
I support the Fair Tax.
EDUCATION
I have been a strong, consistent supporter of the
rights of parents to home school their children, of
creating more charter schools, and of public
school choice.
EDUCATION
We need a clear distinction between federal and
state roles in education. While there is value in the
"No Child Left Behind" law's e ort to set high
standards, states must be allowed to develop
their own benchmarks.
IMMIGRATION
We have to know who is coming into our country,
where they are going, and why they are here. We
need a fence along our border with Mexico,
electronic in some places, and more
highly-trained border agents.
WAR ON TERROR
I believe that we are currently engaged in a world
war. Radical Islamic fascists have declared war on
our country and our way of life. They have sworn
to annihilate each of us who believe in a free
society, all in the name of a perversion of religion
and an impersonal god. We go to great extremes
to save lives, they go to great extremes to take
them. This war is not a conventional war, and
these terrorists are not a conventional enemy. I
will ght the war on terror with the intensity and
single-mindedness that it deserves.
2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS
The Second Amendment is primarily about
tyranny and self-defense, not hunting. The
Founding Fathers wanted us to be able to defend
ourselves from our own government, if need be,
and from all threats to our lives and property.
