The Detroit Free Press: on Jobs


John James: Incumbent does not do enough to create or protect jobs

[After his primary victory], James told Stabenow to get ready "for the fight of your political life."

"Michigan needs a combat veteran and job creator in the U.S. Senate. I don't have a black message. I don't have a white message," said James, who is African American and who criticized Stabenow for not doing enough to create or protect jobs. "I have a Michigan message.... Washington has enough career politicians."
