AEHQ: What Would They Do? National Security – Huntsman

For Jon Huntsman, modern defense means flexibility and creativity.

FOX News Radio’s Rich Johnson has details in our FOX News Radio special election series, “What Would They Do?”:

Audio clip:

From America’s Election Headquarters…

(Huntsman) “We have the best military in the world.  We will always, if have the right leadership, have the best military in the world.”

But Jon Huntsman also says the Pentagon can’t be immune from long, hard looks at where to cut spending.

(Huntsman) “From entitlements to the Department of Defense, we’ve gotta look at all of it.”

Huntsman says a modern military defense means being as flexible in stopping terrorism as the terrorists are in creating it.  That means defense spending must adapt to the reality of the threat.

(Huntsman) “We need a defense budget that reflects strategy, and that strategy ought to be defending our people.”

Jon Huntsman says staying strong militarily goes back to regaining economic strength – the same solution, he says, for nearly every ill we face these days.

    The ideologues of the extreme right need to wake up and realize this man continues to put forth good policy and has a consistently conservative record. So he was Ambassador to China Obama? Get over it! Most Americans want someone who can bring our country together rather than polarize it even further! Governor Huntsman is the only candidate in the Republican field that enough Americans will trust enough to keep Obama out of the white house for another four years. Wake up before the Republican party finds themselves "stepping in it" come November!
