I'm trying to line up who I'm going to vote for this fall, and someone sent me this article. I did a google search on her...she seems legit. I would agree that in the wake of our current mayor, she will have to focus less on the hip hop generation, and more on the seniors and the corporate sector. I checked her site...Hendrix is on there signing her petition...I guess it's a start in the right direction, 'cause Kilpatrick and McPhail...enough said.

She said Detroit needs leadership to address the mass exodus of young people leaving the city in search of greener pastures.Imagine that.

If she'd not tied to Keith Stallings, McPhail, Kilpatrick, Conyers, Coleman Young, Mike Duggan, or most of all Ed McNamara - she can't do any worse than whose there now.

“My focal point is the fleet of young adults,”
Come on now. Did she really say this? "Fleet", as in the past tense of "flight", or what? And she's a recent EMU grad?
The great unraveling of Detroit continues...

Detroit is a dung-heap and another pile of liberal "hip-hop" ain't gonna fix it...
Sounds like Johnny Cochran... "not a makeover, a takeover". If the hip-hop generation takes over, it'll be a return to Coleman Young days -- oh, there's only a drug problem because of those white kids bringing it in from the suburbs.

Welcome to Free Republic.
The first order of business to attract folks fleeing Detroit is getting rid of that 3% city income tax.
That, and all the crime.

Hey, what the heck. Detroit will try anybody as some of their past "leaders" have proven. Why not this one?
