Huffington Post - GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee is open to the idea of using federal troops and the FBI to stop women from having abortions.
"I will not pretend there is nothing we can do to stop this," Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and an outspoken social conservative, said at a campaign stop in Jefferson, Iowa.
Huckabee addressed abortion again at his next stop in Rockwell City, Iowa, where a reporter asked him whether stopping abortion would mean using federal troops or the FBI.
"We'll see if I get to be president," Huckabee said, according to the Topeka Capital-Journal.
"All American citizens should be protected," he added.
The Huckabee campaign did not immediately return a request for more comment on what deploying troops or using the FBI to stop women from having abortions would look like.
Huckabee has long spoken out against abortion, and last year, he suggested that the issue was worse than the Holocaust.
"If you felt something incredibly powerful at Auschwitz and Birkenau over the 11 million killed worldwide and the 1.5 million killed on those grounds, cannot we feel something extraordinary about 55 million murdered in our own country in the wombs of their mothers?" he asked.

Huckabee's mother gave birth, but the brain got lost along the way.
The Reagan recipe calls for an actor who has also been a governor. Huckabee earned his acting credits at Fox after being governor. Unlike the crime bosses of the Untouchables, Fox's Wall Street capos are never guilty. Perry Mason, but with a twist, the innocent are always found guilty. This is the famous transvaluation of values that MLK hoped would make for less materialism. No such luck.
Huckabee will never get another title shot. His prediction of what he would do if elected, is just acting, a screen test. The GOP formula is to hire the also rans as sparring partners for the billionaire-sustained royal line. There is enough budget for 20 or so such royal retainers. Harold Stassen was born too soon.
