Doug P. LeBlanc/Introduction
"People in this city work hard. They deserve to get rewarded for that - but they don't. That's broken. There used to be thousands upon thousands of good jobs in factories in this city - now there aren't. That's broken. And while we're on the subject? People's homes are being taken away from them by some guy sent here by Lansing. That's really broken. Now I know, there's only so much a City Councilman's going to be able to do about all this. But I cannot believe for even a moment, that Bing and his Democrat cronies have even really tried to stop it. My name is Douglass LeBlanc, and I'm asking you for a chance to start fixing what's broken."
"Doug is one of the brightest stars in Michigan politics now. Measure 2 has made such a mess of Detroit. No single action ever taken in the history of America has ever wrought so much grief and ruin. Is he riding that wave a bit? Sure. That's called 'politics.' The voters are angry about how that's being handled, and he's giving substance to their voices - I don't see how that's a bad thing, really. What makes the difference between a politician and windbag is what happens the day he takes the office. That's when you have the proof of the pudding. I think he's going deliver."
