Bernero is currently serving as mayor of Lansing, Michigan. Under Bernero's leadership, Lansing has leveraged more than a half-billion dollars in new investment that will retain and create more than 6,000 full-time jobs. Even in the face of serious revenue losses and rising costs, Bernero erased more than $30 million in city budget deficits without raising taxes by making government more efficient and more accountable.<br /><br />To create a stronger voice for Michigan, Bernero formed a national alliance of automotive mayors to press Congress and the White House to support manufacturing and to assist Michigan's recovery from economic disaster.<br /><embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AYHQ5kYC" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="350" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed><br /><br />Also visit us at <a href="http://therochestercitizen.com">www.TheRochesterCitizen.com</a>.Bruce Fealkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134820420899225811noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8553091085721913645.post-42455790938221238412008-09-11T12:34:00.001-07:002008-09-11T12:35:42.202-07:00Bruce Fealk Interviews California Secretary of State Debra BowenBruce Fealk Interviews Debra Bowen, California Secretary of State on election issues.<br /><embed id="VideoPlayback" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=-6970910177717113097&hl=en&fs=true" style="width:400px;height:326px" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>Bruce Fealkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134820420899225811noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8553091085721913645.post-69763736744783649372008-09-10T13:42:00.000-07:002008-09-11T12:37:22.299-07:00Bruce Fealk Interviews Jennifer Brunner<span style="font-size:130%;">Jennifer Brunner is the Secretary of State of the State of Ohio.

Our first two guests will be Dave Woodward, Oakland County Commissioner, and chair of the Oakland County Democratic Party, and Tim Greimel, freshman commissioner and part of the new Democratic caucus. <br /><br />The County Commission is now aligned with 13 Republicans and 12 Democrats. The goal in 2008 is to turn the commission blue. We'll need your help to make it happen. <br /><br />Our second show is going to have a very special guest and I'm very excited about the opportunity to talk politics and issues with our surprise guest. Please stay tuned for an announcement on when our surprise guest will appear. I know you won't want to miss this exciting interview.<br /><br />I look forward to providing exciting, relevant programming to progressives in Oakland County and beyond.Bruce Fealkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15134820420899225811noreply@blogger.com0
