Mike Huckabe on the Californa Supreme Court Decision


From Mike Huckabee

The California Supreme Court by a near unanimous vote of 6 to 1, upheld Proposition 8, which they should have. This is the second time that the people of California had affirmed traditional marriage with their votes, and this time, the Court accepted that the role of the court is to uphold the Constitution—not to re-write it. On November 4, 2008 voters in California approved this new amendment to the California Constitution, which says “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”

Marriage should be defined as a marriage between one man and one woman. I support a federal constitutional amendment that defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman so that we can have a clear affirmation of the only definition of marriage that has existed throughout history and which in fact reflects the beliefs of people on both side of the political spectrum, including President Obama, Vice President Biden, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton..
