From the
PRESIDENT
Count down to 2012. Are we doomed as the Mayan calendar ends?
The world changes as we know it. All the Planets in the Milky
Way are aligned; gravitational pull could be too much. Or is
this just another drama like Y2K? I cannot do anything about it
so I am pushing on.
Unemployment is dire in the United States. In Michigan, the real
number I hear is nearing 28%. With all the bad news it is hard
to get excited about anything. Uncertainty looms at your door.
Time will tell and I say the Detroit area has a great deal to
look forward to. We will and are creating a new business model
in Southeastern Michigan. Cars to Planes in Oakland County,
Battery Plants, Wind Energy Plants, New Fuels, and the Auto
Companies are growing stronger. Admittedly the growth is slow,
but it is growth. Our Colleges are some of the best in the
country. We excel at engineering and that will put us back on
top.
Dave Bing as Mayor brings great leadership to a town that needs
to become a business attracting machine. Mayor Bing is a proven
business leader and his skills will lead Detroit back to its
former status as a Great Economic City. As Detroit cleans itself
up, I grow more excited.
I was born in Mt Carmel Hospital in Detroit. I am Proud to say I
am a Detroiter. The people are tough and wise. When we are
regrouped and heading in a new direction, the world will take
notice of the Motor City again.
This is a great state and we must work together to show a nation
of doubters that we have tons to offer. I am a proud American,
proud to be from Michigan and was born in the BIG “D”
