Missionary Work?

If Huntsman is in the category 'Mormon Missionaries' should there not be a line or two about his work in the bio?

"Likes wearing pink"?

His wife "likes wearing pink"? Can we get that assertion sourced? Sounds suspiciously joke-like to me. (I laughed!) Hydriotaphia 03:43, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Even if it is true, what does that have to do with him? And even if this page were about her, I would find it difficult to justify including it. 165.247.1.85 22:41, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality of the last paragraph

The last paragraph seems to go into too much detail with "emotion." For example, the governor being "deeply concerned with providing health insurance to all Utahns" exaggerates his position on an issue in addition to being speculation on the degree of which Gov. Huntsman cares about an issue. Atrophicwhisper 00:33, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This page reads like it came from the subject's official site.... That the economy is "the strongest in the state's history" is irrelevant, because there is no source data to affirm what the claim is drawn from.

Utah has gotten a lot of criticism for giving a special driving permit to illegal immigrants. This sort of permit is an affirmation and validation of illegal immigrants, and essentially constitutes a sort of mini-citizenship program. This kind of permit runs diametrically counter to the notion after September 11, 2001 of making driver's licenses more secure instead of making them available to people violating our laws. http://www.stateline.org/live/details/story?contentId=234828 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.44.153.46 (talk) 02:56, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seventh Generation Utahn?

How can he be a Seventh Generation Utahn if he was born in California? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.94.245.214 (talk) 22:08, August 23, 2007 (UTC)

Are Bill and Hillary now New Yorkers? He becomes a Utahn by moving there and becoming very prominent in Utah. --DThomsen8 (talk) 10:55, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the issue is the 7th generation part Dthomsen, although it could very well be that despite being born in California, his family is from Utah. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.159.80.96 (talk) 22:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support of John McCain's 2008 Bid for the White House

There needs to be some source material on this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.7.232.36 (talk) 07:36, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dropped out of High School?

Alright at first I thought that the claim that Huntsman "dropped out of high school to join a rock and roll band" was vandalism but after carefully reviewing this AP story (third to last paragraph) it is apparently true. Well then that raises the question of how did he attend the University of Utah if he dropped out of high school? Or is it that he only dropped out of high school for a while and then returned back? If anyone has any additional information it would be much appreciated especially since we will have many eyes looking at this article and it is important that all the information on it is accurate. Thanks.--Jersey Devil (talk) 21:44, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
