Hit the Road Jack': See Jon Huntsman Serenade Obama at Campaign Event

Freshman Republican Rep. Tim Scott began his "First in The South" Presidential Town Hall series with former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman Sunday night. With every candidate looking for an edge in what is still seen as a wide open 2012 Republican presidential primary, Huntsman shared with South Carolinians his policy solutions for the country as well as some old musical talents you may not have been aware of.

ABC News 4 reports that Huntsman spoke to the South Carolinians about loving the country, tackling the issue of the economy, his disapproval of government bailouts, and other nice, but common, Republican talking points. The town hall took place in South Carolina's "Lowcounty," where the Obama administration’s National Labor Relations Board has been fighting with Boeing for choosing to establish a facility in North Charleston.

"I think it's an absolute shame that the president hasn't told the Labor Board to stand down on something that's critically important as SC job creation," Huntsman said to ABC News 4. The NLRB is arguing that Boeing only established a facility in North Charleston as retaliation for union strikes in Washington.

But the highlight of the event may have been when Huntsman and Rep. Scott closed with a serenade to President Obama of the song, "Hit The Road Jack." Scott provided the vocals, while Huntsman shredded on the keyboard:

A YouTube video captures the full performance, as well as more of Huntsman's talent:

Before entering the University of Utah, Huntsman tried becoming a rockstar,dropping out of Palo Alto high school to play keyboard in the rock band Wizard while earning his G.E.D. Perhaps Huntsman is trying to channel his inner Bill Clinton , who famously broke out his saxophone in 1992.
