Rick,

Another great article. You nailed it again. Maybe we should start a Draft committee — I know you are too sane to run on your own!

Yes, Rick. Reaching across the aisle and building a bipartisan coalition is absolutely critical, and being proud of Michigan as it grows in its “re-creation,” is vital to rebuilding the pride of Michigan in its achievements.

Rick,
Absolutely correct on building the coalition and involving the special interests, but the devil is always in the details.
How to lay out a broad plan that gives everyone something that they can support.
It is time for a visionary candidate with the ability to demonstrate “transformational leadership” as we change the basic structure of our state.

Rick, I couldn’t agree with you more. May those who plan to run for governor agree and understand the process and strategy you have described so admirably. I never thought I would ever hear myself say “Only the Special Interest’s has the experience and organization needed to pull Michigan together?”

Unfortunately, term limits has reduced our system to the political shambles we now face.

I’m still idealistic enough to believe that Anything is possible, especially as you perceive it?

Thank you for the little ray of sunshine today and God Bless Michigan!
