Alexander Campaign Kicks Off with Road Trip for Change

(Congressman Mike Rogers has a challenger. - promoted by rich)

(Editor's note:  The location for Alexander's concluding remarks will actually be at a public location near the Orion Assembly plant, not at it.  This comes to me not from the Alexander campaign, but from GM, a representative for which said that they do not allow political campaigning on premises.)  

The Alexander for Congress Campaign released the following press release today:

Change is coming to Mid-Michigan, and Bob Alexander is leading the way!

Bob believes Mid-Michigan deserves a representative who understands that the serious challenges facing its citizens require real solutions and immediate action. He wants to foster America's energy independence, protect the environment, and safeguard Michigan jobs. So when it came time to say goodbye to his 1995 Ford Escort – all 256,000 miles of it – Bob chose the Chevy Malibu hybrid: an American car driven by American innovation.

Made right here in the United States, the state-of-the-art Malibu Hybrid has a better MPG rating and a smaller carbon footprint than the Honda Accord. It reflects Bob's dedication to American jobs, energy innovation, and environmental stewardship.

To kick off his campaign, Bob will take delivery of this new Chevy Malibu at Shaheen Chevrolet in Lansing at 9:00 AM on Thursday, July 24. From there, Bob will set off on his "Road Trip for Change," visiting locations in all five counties of Michigan's 8th District on Thursday. Bob will share the campaign's themes of American products, Michigan innovation, clean energy, and a clean environment. The day will finish with remarks at the GM Orion Assembly plant.

Bob, an East Lansing consultant and long-time community leader, is running for Congress because he knows Mid-Michigan demands a change after eight years of poor leadership under Mike Rogers and George Bush. Bob will bring Michigan's concerns to Washington, supporting working families and individuals, working for healthcare solutions, fighting for quality public education, and protecting our environment.

Stop by the Alexander for Congress campaign’s website today!

Front page material? (0.00 / 0)
I realize that this is a press release, but is there any way that one of the front-pagers could please front page this diary?

Please?


I heard this on WKAR on my way home tonight! (4.00 / 1)
Yup, the story was on WKAR. Also, WKAR interviewed Sue Eby, Chairperson of the Clinton County Democrats!

Sue did a great job explaining how the Democrats are competing in Clinton County!

Way to go Sue!


P.S. Thanks Rich (4.00 / 1)
that's all...   thanks for promoting this diary!
