Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has added a famous name among Christian conservatives to his list of endorsers: Jerry Falwell Jr., the son of the late Jerry Falwell and the president of Liberty University, which his father founded. “I knew Jerry’s dad for more than 30 years and have admired the long tradition of Liberty University and the legacy for creating ‘Champions for Christ,”’ the GOP presidential candidate said in a statement. “Dr. Falwell’s vision of helping students to start with nothing to believe they can change the world is exactly what our campaign is all about.”
