Republican presidential candidate and former Utah governor and U.S. Ambassador to China Jon M. Huntsman, Jr., visited the grave of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, in Cambria Heights, N.Y.
Huntsman and his wife, Mary Kaye Huntsman, were accompanied by philanthropists Harvey and Gloria Kaylie; Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, chairman of the educational and social service arms of Chabad-Lubavitch; Rabbi Levi Shemtov, Washington director of American Friends of Lubavitch; Rabbi Benny Zippel, executive director of Chabad-Lubavitch of Utah; and several supporters of Chabad’s efforts in the Beehive State.
The Huntsmans reportedly prayed for the well-being of their family, the American people and humanity at large.

Who is his political advisor?
I like Gov. Huntsman, and if not for his support for civil unions and his isolationist foreign policy, I would consider voting for him.
Huntsmans an addmited aitheist! We can’t have someone run this great country that doesn’t believe in a creator!
Did he get a dollar?

I think that Mr. Hunstman is the voice of contrition and that he may indeed be our next president, though I think Mr. Obama has one more term ahead. Mr. Huntsman is organized and speaks with the sophistication of a man with a true providence that is to be met in time. Wait and see on Huntsman.
my vote goes to santorum
Huntsman is really one of the most qualified of the Republican presidential hopefuls. Too bad he hasn’t hit a key with voters. For now, I hope he becomes Secretary of State in 2013.
grave? i thought he didn’t die
Huntsman is running a dead campaign but thinks it’s alive.
Did the Rebbe endorse him?
My friend Rick Santorum loves reading about Huntsman’s slim chances because Huntsman is one of those rare candidates polling lower than he is.
Hopefully, they will find a place for you in the Cain administration.
We are smarter than this. We know this is a political maneuver.
That said, it is nice to know that this is a politician that at least cares to put on the show.
Uh-huh. You really think this new controversy won’t hurt Mr. Cain’s campaign?
#3, when did Jon Huntsman ever admit to being an atheist? In fact, he said in an interview earlier this year “I believe in G-d”. How much less of an atheist can he be?
Newt 2012. He is the only candidate who knows what he’s talking about.
