Just can't believe Petraeus is in the running. The constant shrieks of 'lock her up' for mishandling classified information while she was SoS, when Petraeus is on parole for admitting to doing exactly that (while in CENTCOM)...if he is appointed SoS that is ludicrous and the definition of hypocrisy.

Huntsman would be a great choice. So would Romney, to be honest, but I think Huntsman's experience with China is a real deal-clincher here. Like it or not we are stuck with China as our dance partner, as they are stuck with us.

If I were Petraeus' parole officer I wouldn't get him access to leave the country. I would force Trump to pardon him if he really wanted to go that direction.

I'm amazed that this is all they got
did you say the same when Barack HUSSEIN Obama picked Hillary Clinton?


I did !

Jon Huntsman is my choice. He is a class-act human being, a true statesman and better qualified than any of the other potential candidates. (Plus, it would give him tons of exposure and name-recognition should he consider running for President in 2024 )

Can she see Antarctica from her house, though? I think that's all that really matters.

I agree, I like him and he is truly a class act.

I also agree Huntsman is a good choice. Less controversial than Guiliani, Romney and Petraeus.
