Falwell's Hero: How Huckabee Has Championed The Christian Right
"Before, during, and even following his time as governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee enjoyed the strong support of the controversial Christian conservative Jerry Falwell. The two knew each other through religious work in the 1970s. And when Huckabee ventured into elected office, the relationship evolved.
A year into Huckabee's gubernatorial administration, Falwell helped him net $144,000 for an in-state charity. Afterwards, the Moral Majority founder declared: "If we had 50 governors and 535 members of Congress ... living by the same code [as Huckabee], we would solve all the problems we have overnight."
