Hardin described Bill Clinton as a "friend of education," but then identified that Mike Huckabee 10 years were marked by successful education reforms. "The SmartStart program for elementary school students was instrumental in improving test scores. Huckabee vigorously advanced expansion of state-funded college scholarships," he added. "Every governor in the history of this nation ... has claimed to be an education governor," Hardin said. "Mike Huckabee, truly, substantively, has been an education governor." Hardin identified that Huckabee isn't a polarizing figure who has high unfavorable ratings in national polls. "If Mike Huckabee were president of the United States, I believe Sen. Reid and others could work with him and talk with him and unify more than divide," Hardin said.
