FRANKFORT, Ky. — Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will speak next week at the Southern Baptist-affiliated University of the Cumberlands.

Huckabee, a potential contender in next year's Republican presidential primary, will be on the Williamsburg campus on April 5.

An ordained Baptist minister, Huckabee told reporters in Mississippi on Monday that he is still months away from deciding whether to enter the presidential race. He said it will be at least this summer before he makes the decision.

Huckabee, who ran unsuccessfully in 2008, hosts a weekend show on Fox News and would have to leave that job if he becomes a presidential candidate.

Huckabee will be the headliner at a leadership event sponsored by the University of the Cumberlands and the Forcht Group of Kentucky Center for Excellence.
