From WorldNetDaily:
Candidates for the GOP nomination for president universally describe themselves as friendly to family issues, but a California organization has issued a report card indicating they aren't listening to the same drummer, and former Gov. Mike Huckabee and U.S. Rep. Ron Paul are leading the pack.
"With seven states holding primaries or caucuses this month and the nominees for the Democratic and Republican parties to be decided on Super Tuesday, February 5, it's high time that conservative voters get the facts on which candidates will defend the natural family – a father, mother, and their children," said the Campaign for Children and Families.
The organization, a leading West Coast pro-family group that researches and advocates for the natural family, said its "Report Card on the Natural Family" highlights the positions the GOP candidates have taken on issues of protecting the basic family unit.
