In 2009, Hubbard published a book titled Letters to the Editor: Confessions of a Frustrated Conservative,[5] in which he said "the institution of slavery that the black race has long believed to be an abomination upon its people may actually have been a blessing in disguise,"[6][7] that black people don't "appreciate the value of a good education", and that in the future immigration, both legal and illegal, must lead to "planned wars or extermination" which would be "as necessary as eating and breathing".[8]
In 2012, Hubbard won the Republican primary in District 58, rather than District 75. However, he was defeated in the general election by Democrat Harold Copenhaver.[9]
