Jon Huntsman Sr invented the stryrofoam hamburger containers etc. He is a billionaire who founded and built a large Cancer Hospital which is apparently a wonderful place. He is a really philanthropic person and a great guy. His son maybe a great guy too but not the Conservative we are all looking for to run in 2012.

Yes, Jon Huntsman is the father of the guy under discussion in the article. Senoir is a billionaire, and has stated that he wants to die broke- he is leaving all of his fortune to charity.

From WIKI-

Mr. Huntsman is widely recognized for his humanitarian giving, including contributions to the homeless, the ill and the under-privileged, exceeds $1.2 billion and has assisted thousands, both domestically and internationally[citation needed]. The Chronicle of Philanthropy placed Mr. Huntsman second on their 2007 list of largest donors. The Salt Lake Tribune (Jan 1, 2000) included Mr. Huntsman among “The 10 Utahns Who Most Influenced Our State in the 20th Century.” In 2001, Mr. Huntsman was presented the Entrepreneur of the Year Award. In 2003, he received the Humanitarian of the Year Award. The Chronicle of Philanthropy placed Mr. Huntsman in the second place position on their 2007 list of largest donors. (Dec 2007) And in November, 2008, the American Cancer Society presented to Mr. Huntsman its Medal of Honor for Cancer Philanthropy.

One of his most notable causes is the Huntsman Cancer Institute, of which Mr. Huntsman is Founder and principal benefactor. Mr. Huntsman and his wife, Karen, founded the Huntsman Cancer Institute in 1995 to accelerate the work of curing cancer through human genetics. The Institute is now one of America's major cancer research centers dedicated to finding a cure for cancer with a state-of-the-art cancer specialty hospital. The HCI building holds this quote "Selfless giving unto others represents one's true wealth."
