Presidential candidate Huckabee to speak at college celebration

FRANKLIN -- Presidential candidate and Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will be the keynote speaker at Williamson Christian College’s 10th anniversary celebration Nov. 5, according to an annoucement from the college.

Huckabee, a Republican, gained traction politically in Iowa on Aug. 11 when he came in second in the Iowa straw poll.

“Gov. Huckabee graduated from Ouachita Baptist University, a private, liberal arts undergraduate college with a mission similar to ours, so he understands the importance and challenges of integrating a faith worldview with academics,” said Kenneth W. Oosting, Ph.D., president of Williamson Christian College.

The event, called A Night at the Museum, will be held at The Frist Center for the Visual Arts in Nashville, and will raise funds for the college’s Single Parent Scholarship program and its annual fund.

Williamson Christian College, with headquarters in Cool Springs, offers accredited degree programs for nontraditional students, with a special outreach to single parents.

America truly cannot afford the handsome spendthrifts that has become the addictive default status of Republican candidates.

If Republicans stand for something different, they sure haven't shown in the last 50 years.

Even physical attraction needs its limits.
