Huckabee: Obama Isn't From Kenya, But He's Still Anti-American
Mike Huckabee now says he knows President Obama wasn't born in Kenya and that he misspoke when he made that much-maligned comment earlier this week. But on social conservative Bryan Fischer's radio show on Wednesday, he agreed when the host offered that "there may be some fundamental anti-Americanism in this president."

"Well, that's exactly the point that I make in the book," Huckabee replied.

On Tuesday, as TPM reported, Huckabee was slammed far and wide for commentshe made to radio host Steve Malzberg. "One thing that I do know is his having grown up in Kenya, view of the Brits, for example, very different than the average American," he said.

5. This helps someone like Huntsman
All he has to do is not act like the others and he seems like a reasonable Republican by the public. If he somehow gets through the primaries, he might be worrisome.

6. how much is opinion worth when he misses basic facts
Not all opinions matter. Huckabee wants his opinion to matter but doesn't want to know simple basic facts like where the president was born. So why should I trust him on the big facts, like where my country should go.
