Apparently, GOP front-runner Mike Huckabee thinks so, because he decided to bring up the "issue" on the campaign trail. Huckabee told CBS News (via Us) in Iowa that he supports 16-year-old Jamie Lynn's decision to have her baby. Huckabee, a former Baptist minister, is a staunchly pro-life candidate.
"I think that is the right decision, a good decision," said the former Arkansas Governor of Jamie Lynn. "I hope it is not an encouragement to other 16-year-olds who think that is the best course of action." |
Again he appears to be speaking on issues before thinking of the ramifications.
Unwed teen pregnancy is a touchy issue that I think should not come up as a topic so early in the campaign.
Especially when dealing with the Spears family.
