	The Democratic Party
		I want to respond to his speech this morning, and I want to respond directly to the president, on behalf of the Michigan workers and families who are struggling as their jobs are being shipped overseas.
		President, I watched your speech as the governor of a state that is the epicenter of America's manufacturing crisis.
		We're working hard in Michigan, and Democratic governors are working hard across the country, because we believe that no victim of outsourcing, no family without health care, and no young person struggling to pay for college should be on their own.

		In my eyes, the future of Michigan's economy lies in the diversification of the state from what has traditionally been a manufacturing monoculture to a future built on the skills on which past eras relied, but combining in new skills and talents needed for the future.
		While Michigan has one of the strongest bases of engineering and technical design employees in the U.S., much of that skill is in the vehicle manufacturing and supply industries.
		Michigan is not perceived as a state with investing "pizazz".

	Discriminations: Michigan Governor: Affirmative Action Is “Reparations”!
		Blacks or mulattos desiring to settle in Michigan were required to produce a certificate of freedom issued by a court within the United States.
		I do agree with Governor Granholm that Affirmative Action is needed in 2006 Michigan, and 2006 America, not ONLY because of white racism in the 19th Century, but white racism in the 21st, something many of my anti-affirmative action type friends here are loathe to admit even exists.
		The fact is that the University of Michigan is a rare outpost of social equity in a landscape dominated by a racial divide that is much larger today than it was in 1960.

	In the Race for Governor of Michigan, the Struggling Economy Is Topic A - New York Times
		And so, while elections in other regions have turned to matters like national security, the war in Iraq and Congressional scandal, Michigan’s races for governor and, to a lesser degree, the United States Senate are hinging this year almost entirely on the struggling economy and the question of who is to blame for it.
		DeVos regularly ticks off dire statistics: with major cuts at the Detroit-area automobile companies, Michigan’s unemployment rate of 7.1 percent is one of the worst in the nation; the state has lost 85,000 jobs in the last four years; and it has ranked second in the number of young people moving elsewhere.
		Granholm, who said hers was the most aggressive economic recovery plan in the nation, seemed to sidestep responsibility for what has happened here, saying she had “stepped into this current” in a state that had long depended on cars for its livelihood.

		I know that many of you were ill received when you spoke of me as a candidate for Governor.
		From the very beginning, you strived to keep upbeat and not become discouraged by the treatment this campaign received from newspapers and television.
		However, winning an election pales when compared to winning the support from good people like you; good people who know when it is time to get back to changing the world one person at a time.
