Nomination of Jon Huntsman, Jr. for the position of Secretary of State would open a new corridor of bipartisanship and cooperation with the two prominent political parties.
In addition to being an accomplished diplomat, he also has the presence of being a former Presidential candidate. He has shown time and again his ability to lead in difficult situations and has the respect of his colleagues on both sides of the aisle.
Furthermore, having been the Ambassador to China he already has the contacts and familiarity with the United States' most powerful trading partner.
Jon Huntsman's nomination for Secretary of State would more than likely meet zero opposition, and would put at least one item of business on the fast track to completion.
