"Huntsman pushes economics over military in foreign policy talk" October 11, 2011
Jon Huntsman laid out a blueprint yesterday for a limited foreign policy, which stresses America’s economic strength over its military might....
Huntsman would bring most of the troops from Afghanistan home this year.
