Huckabee says government today is overly complicated. He says it&#8217;s important for people to recognize that the government the founders created was a simple government. He says the Constitution was 20 pages long and the Obama Bill is 2,300 pages long, so that&#8217;s an indication of how different things are approached. <\/p>\n<p>Huckabee goes on to talk about the Tea Party movement saying he thinks it&#8217;s the greatest thing that&#8217;s happened in the American political theater since he&#8217;s been born. He explains that it&#8217;s an indication that people recognize that they are the bosses and not slaves, servants and surfs. Huckabee will be in Tyler Sunday, March 13, 2:00, at Hastings for a book signing.
