Jon Huntsman talks about the importance of having a positive message in politics: “Anger is not a substitute for good policy. Yet it seems to play well among certain corners of my party. And it’s not where we should be. We should turn that energy into finding reality-based solutions and bringing people together in ways that really do further an agenda that I think most Americans could agree on – and that is rebuilding some of our broken fundamentals in this country, because everybody needs an economy that works, everybody needs good schools for their families, everybody wants the kinds of confident, reliable relationships abroad that allow America’s light to shine.”

RF: What is the hardest truth that Republicans today have to face?

JH: That without being a reality-based, solutions-oriented party, we have no future. If we can be a reality-based, solutions-oriented party, we can capture the demographics and we can find solutions to our most vexing problems -- which will require by the way, some element of compromise, because without compromise, you cannot further an agenda.



As long as compromise is seen as something akin to treason, it becomes impossible for us to move the policy ball forward.

Knowing that the Republican Party is too tied up within itself to nominate this fellow- I sure would like to see him become the Libertarian candidate in 2016....
