(Salt Lake City) From his prison cell, global warming advocate Tim DeChristopher has endorsed Republican candidate Jon Huntsman for President of the United States.
DeChristopher, writing from his federal prison cell where he is serving a two-year sentence, offered his support to Huntsman saying he would make a better leader for the environment than President Barack Obama and encouraged climate change activists to coalesce around the former Utah governor’s campaign.Huntsman's campaign acknowledged the endorsement and quickly changed the subject.
“The climate movement could also rock the boat by campaigning for Jon Huntsman right now,” DeChristopher wrote to the website, Grist.com, which has published occasional letters from him.
In addition to teaching Democrats that they can’t take environmentalists’ votes for granted, he said, “I genuinely believe that Jon Huntsman would make a better president than Obama.”
