Bully Pulpit Series 2012: Governor Jon Huntsman

Republican presidential candidate Governor Jon Huntsman recently participated in College of Charleston's "The Bully Pulpit Series: Reflections on Presidential Communication" in Randolph Hall on November 2, 2011.

Huntsman was elected Governor of Utah in 2004 and won re-election in 2008. Prior to his election, Huntsman was appointed the U.S. Ambassador to Singapore by President George H.W. Bush. President Barack Obama appointed him U.S. Ambassador to China in 2009.

"The Bully Pulpit Series: Reflections on Presidential Communication" asks the individual presidential candidates to speak with students and Charleston community members on such topics as the frequency of press conferences, the candidate's relationship with journalists, and the power of the president to persuade. This non-partisan series is a joint effort of the College's Department of Communication and the Department of Communication Advisory Council.
