Former Governor Chris Nunu recently declared his strong endorsement for Presidential candidate and former ambassador Nikki Haley. Nunu praised Haley's nuanced stance on sensitive issues like abortion, arguing that her navigation of the controversial topic has resonated meaningfully with both pro-choice and pro-life individuals. Nunu dismissed the perception of the abortion issue as a federal problem, emphasizing instead that Haley's perception aligns with his own: that it is fundamentally a state issue and should be treated as such.
The conversation shifted towards the 'humanization' of the abortion issue, focusing on the case of a Texas woman, Kate Cox. Despite being unaware of Texas law's specifics, Nunu expressed sympathy for Cox and emphasized the importance of compassion when it comes to dealing with such serious issues. Nunu suggested that states would learn to 'tweak' their laws to ensure maximum psychological and physical well-being for women and children alike.
Regarding foreign policy, Haley expressed her belief that Israel should decide on the nature of its neighbors rather than America. She vehemently criticized the Palestinian authority, citing their inability to lead effectively and their indifference towards their citizens. On this issue, Haley urged other nations to form relationships that would deter community violence instead of harboring terrorists.

Nunu acknowledged Haley's unique strength as a potential first female president. However, he clarified her appeal wasn't simply because of her gender but due to her shared experiences as a wife, mother, and an individual with an 'amazing background.'
When asked if he would consider running as Haley's vice president, Nunu immediately dismissed the idea. However, Haley spoke highly of Nunu, stating that she believes he could be great in any capacity and that his tenure had greatly benefited New Hampshire.
In conclusion, Governor Nunu demonstrated his immense faith in Ambassador Haley's candidature and future performance. Despite his refusal to partner with her in the race, his endorsement was full-throated, and he firmly believes Haley is capable of providing the leadership that America needs in the future.
