Since dropping out of the Republican presidential race, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee has been asked who he plans to endorse as his candidate for the White House.

During an interview with the Christian Examiner, Huckabee revealed that the only thing that he plans to endorse is God's principles.

"My plan right now is to endorse principles, rather than persons – and to be very clear in endorsing those things that I think are important and valuable to our culture and to our country, and to let the voters make up their own minds as to who best embodies those principles, and which candidates will best lead the country," he said.

Huckabee does not think that his endorsement at this point is "significant" anyway, since people who make endorsements are "pretty well done" once they do so.

"You've made your point and everybody says, 'OK,' and you really, then, can't speak at all to the larger field of candidates and/or to the things they are currently saying. While I certainly might change my mind, right now I don't see myself going out and making an endorsement," he said.

The former presidential hopeful is glad that he is out of the race because campaigning is pretty "intense" and exhausting. Even if he did not get the GOP nod, Huckabee acknowledged that God has been very good to him.

"I did my part. It didn't work out, but I look at my life in the great(er) context of where I started as a kid, and ... what a blessing, what an incredible joy to live in this great country where a kid like me, who grew up like I did, could even get on the stage. So despite my disappointment in not getting the nomination and winning the election, I still love the Lord and I love this country, and that doesn't change a bit," he said.
