【禁闻】关注人权前驻华大使 参选美国总统

【新唐人2011年6月23日讯】前美国驻北京大使洪博培(JonHuntsman)6月21号正式宣
布,将角逐共和党的总统候选人提名。美国媒体分析,他可能是共和党内目前最有希望
挑战奥巴马的人选。今年4月卸任大使的洪博培,被公认为历年来最出色的美国驻华大
使之一,尤其是他高调关注中国的人权和自由。

21号,洪博培仿效共和党前总统雷根,在新泽西州的自由女神公园发表参选声明。他在
演讲中表示,「这是我们选择未来的时刻。」

洪博培:「这是历史上第一次,我们传给下一代的美国,她的强大、同情心、竞争力和
信心都不及我们当年,这完全令人无法接受,而且一点也不符合美国精神。」

洪博培表示,美国必须做出「艰难的抉择」,他主张美国简化税务法规,寻求能源自
主,并创造就业机会。他警告说,如果美国无法减少债务和赤字,国家将前景黯淡。

连同洪博培,至今已有8人宣布角逐共和党总统提名初选,包括前众议院议长金里奇等
人。根据共和党18号的一项非正式投票,洪博培以382票暂居第二。

现年51岁的洪博培,父亲是美国最大化学公司亨茨曼集团创办人。洪博培曾任雷根总统
白宫助理;在老布什和小布什总统期间,先后出任商务部副助理部长、驻新加坡大使和
美国副贸易代表。

洪博培两次当选犹他州州长,在他的脸书图片库,有他担任州长时与西藏精神领袖达赖
喇嘛会面的照片。

洪博培曾在台湾传教7年,会讲一口流利的普通话和闽南话。他和妻子生育了5名子
女,并收养了一个中国女孩和一个印度女孩。

2009年8月,洪博培来到北京出任美国驻华大使,他提出「人性化外交」的理念,多次
公开大胆批评中共打压人权,令中共当局十分恼怒。

洪博培2009年底会见了5位中国维权律师和教会维权人士,包括江天勇、李方平、张
凯、王光泽和戴金波,交谈了近2个小时。

北京维权律师江天勇:「美国大使能够这样非常郑重的来会见中国的维权人士,尤其是
维权律师,他是向中国民间、中国政府和全世界表明了美国政府、美国人民对中国人民
追求法制,要求尊重人权这种希望的支持,释放了一个很积极的信号。」

洪博培2010年初又紧急约见了北京维权律师张凯;今年初登门看望了被断电54天的北京
维权律师倪玉兰。

2月20号,洪博培穿着印有美国国徽的衣服,像征性的出现在北京「茉莉花集会」地
点;并对采访相关活动的外国记者遭到拘留和殴打,向北京当局提出抗议。而他的名字
却在新浪等微博遭到封杀。

在4月卸任大使前的演说中,洪博培高调谴责中共践踏人权、压制网络媒体,他赞扬艾
未未、陈光诚和其他异议人士「为了公众利益敢于挑战中共政府」,他还指责中共错误
监禁美籍地质学家薛峰。

去年10月,在美国驻华大使馆的网上直播活动中,洪博培回答网友提问时表示,只有放
弃专制,中国才能取得经济、社会的实质性进步。

《维基解密》公布的数十份机密电文显示,洪博培深入参与了奥巴马政府在朝鲜问题、
伊朗问题、互联网自由等一系列问题上的政策。

美国共和党内不少保守人士,对洪博培出任驻华大使、效力于民主党奥巴马政府有意
见。洪博培回应说:「如果国家召唤,就为国家服务」、「我就是这样,为一位来自不
同政党总统效力。」

民主党顾问史雷特(Alex Slater)表示,如果洪博培能够赢得共和党提名,他将成为大
选中「白宫唯一敬畏的候选人」。

spirit.(If the original soundtrack is in English, we don't need subtitles.)

Huntsman said, the U.S. must make "tough choices".He advocated simplifying
the U.S. tax laws,seeking energy independence and creating jobs.He warned
that if its debts/deficits cannot be reduced,the U.S.'s future would be
bleak.
