I can't remember the last Presidential debate I watched--of either party. IMO, pertinent questions about current issues, and what each candidate proposes for each issue didn't seem to be addressed. I did start to watch the 2016 Republican debate--because what I had seen of Megyn Kelly in prior years, I thought she would keep the debate on real issues. I was so disgusted that she was concentrating not on what candidates had been saying about issues, but about who had said what about other candidates or other people in politics. I don't know if she ever got around to ask about stances on issues, because I was so disgusted with the first-grade behaviour she was trying to get out of the candidates that I just changed the channel. From what has been reported about democrat wanna-be's, I don't want to listen to their debates (I'm sure some will find it amusing entertainment--I'd rather watch Homicide Hunter.) Thanks for the "been there, done that" overview of the process.
Few can match a man whose God is the Lord and who speaks with insightful clarity, integrity and humor! You Sir are such a one. God continue to make His way for you!
great advice for both parties..debate???what dabate
We saw this on your show Saturday. Love your show and newsletters. Tell Sarah we will miss her at the press conferences. She is the best. Keep up the good work.
Double POW! Mike you were brilliant and spoke from experience. Yes! that change needs to be made. Especially since all but Fox are NOT fair and balanced and make no pretext to be such.
I suggest the forum be held outside the beltway and let all local TV and newspaper people be the questioners. Exclude the "media" from having any say in the situation at all. a 5 minute monologue was more inciteful than I have heard in DECADES. I hope the dems are listening. If not, their loss, like you say.
Great Advice! Shared with my Family and Friends.
WAY TO GO, MIKE!! It's about time these "debates" were cleaned up. I am tired of the questions being longer than the answers. I am tired of the preening, posturing and politicizing (of certain groups).....wish more people would stand up and clean up this political mess!
Great Job :)
True that"s the way I hope things will turn out, instead of dog eat dog, and no more name calling
Dead on !!!!
This is funny! Don't plan on watching the "dog and pony show" they call "debates. Complete waste of time. Now, just WHAT makes you think ANY of the jackasses would listen to you. YOU are wasting your breath!!!
Very Good. I never thought of it like this but it should be done.
Thank YOU...Very well said...Shared to Twitter!!!

There he goes making sense again. Love Gov Mike. Best idea I've heard yet. Stop the showboating. Keep up the good work.
I agree wholeheartedly!
Gov. Huckabee I am in total agreement with your friendly advice to the presidential candidates video message. The debates are indeed dictated by the media...and should not be. Everything you said is "right on"! I don't think anyone could have worded it any better than you did. I hope what you said will help them realize that there needs to be change in the way debates are handled....not just for this election but for the ones to come in the future.
You give the best advice & I admire your quick whit & subtle sarcasm!!
Walter Lippman in person " Self Importance has Ruined more good journalist Than bad Liquor" Problem is CNN & MSLSD have no GOOD journalist just opinion people looking for camera time!
Your right ! Quit giving the Dim Wits Advice and lets get on with the Clown Show.
I love your sensible and concise recommendations to the Democrat candidates! It will be interesting to see if they take it to heart and mind, and do it! Honestly, I have had a hard time watching the campaign "debates" in the past for the very disgusting reasons you have mentioned! The unfairness and rudeness the candidates must endure defeats the purpose of the event. The candidates and viewers deserve better!
Great advice, Mike. I have the utmost respect for you and your opinion. We will see if any of the debates turn out to be more than a circus.
I watched the Advice video to the Dems. a very good public service attempt to make the (debate) watchable I will be working a kids FP game however if I get home in time I may tune in to catch the folly they no doubt will bring to the stage. I do not expect to hear any substance just the same old crap how do we destroy America and the Presidency. Most of the Left's education has been to bring down what makes America great someone will write the candidates a word and they try to use it in a sentence they rehearse for a few days and they all become parrots remember the the words Collusion, Manufactured, Conspiracy, Racist, Bigot, Treason, Hitler, you get the picture, same Old Crap slim chance any of them will come up with a solution to our Nations problems they will create new ones that the DEM. way. Waste of time and resources when i see that losing bunch and the donations to the candidates I say to myself what about Childrens Hospital St. Judes, Wounded Warriors, 911 victims so many good places for good money to do great things and they donate to bad Dems. who are trying to destroy the Country what a waste.
Huckabee is spot on, as usual !
Governor Huckabee, I see how your daughter Sarah Huckabee Sanders acquired so much common sense. Excellent advice to the Democratic candidates & for both parties’ future debates. It would be great if they followed this advice.
Great advice, we'll see if it's followed!
Excellent advice, Mike!
