Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas and current candidate for the Republican precedential nomination, said the following in an interview with Wolf Blitzer
My sense was, because I visited every single prison in the Arkansas prison system, and I can tell you most of our prisoners would love to be in a facility more like Guantanamo and less like the state prisons that people are in in the United States.Huckabee understands that Guantanamo is an important institution in the preservation of our freedoms. He has added a few points in his column in my opinion.
It’s more symbolic than it is a substantive issue, because people perceive of mistreatment when, in fact, there are extraordinary means being taken to make sure these detainees are being given, really, every consideration.
