Jon Huntsman on China, Jobs: Not the time for a Trade War, Utah was number one for Job Creation - YouTube

Im a Democrat who is extremely impressed with Jon Huntsman while totally turned off by the rest of the GOP field.

Maybe you can get Huntsman to replace Biden on the 2012 Dem ticket. I think he'd do real well there.

Huntsman is smart, sane, and well spoken. Things that don't fly over very well with the right.

Yes because Huntsman is a pro-spending keynesian economics loving democrat.

Why is he even in the Republican party?

And he is wrong about global warming. I am an engineer and have looked into this issue extensively. Global warming does contribute to climate change, but not to the degree some make it out to. Naturally occurring water vapor is the main cause of global warming. If we all stopped using fossil fuels tomorrow, it would do little to slow naturally occurring climate change. If it is going to happen, it is going to happen, and there is absolutely nothing we can do to stop it from gradually occurring. However, the idea that something like this can be slowed down for a meaningful amount of time is absolutely ridiculous.

Wow you are an engineer. So? How does make you qualified. Sure everyone is entitled to an opinion, but yours is no better than any other layman.

So you'd rather believe a politician over a scientist or environmental engineer... Okay... Suit yourself.

This whole "global warming must be stopped right now!" thing is just a bunch of bs sold to Americans. Most people who have studied the issue realize this.

Global warming is a naturally occurring phenomenon that can't be stopped by reducing our use of fossil fuels. That's a fact. Not an opinion. The science proves it.

The guy is a delusional.

You are a Democrat, which is why you are impressed. Republicans...not so much. He needs to change parties if he really wants to be embraced because he is going nowhere as a Repubican anytime soon.
