A Governor's Story: The Fight for Jobs and America's Economic Future
Autor Jennifer Granholm, Dan Mulhernen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 aug 2012
Jennifer
Granholm
was
the
two-term
governor
of
Michigan,
a
state
synonymous
with
manufacturing
during
a
financial
crisis
that
threatened
to
put
all
America's
major
car
companies
into
bankruptcy.
The
immediate
and
knock-on
effects
were
catastrophic.
Granholm's
grand
plans
for
education
reform,
economic
revitalization,
clean
energy,
and
infrastructure
development
were
blitzed
by
a
perfect
economic
storm.
Granholm
was
a
determined
and
undefeated
governor,
who
enjoyed
close
access
to
the
White
House
at
critical
moments
(Granholm
stood
in
for
Sarah
Palin
during
Joe
Biden's
debate
preparation),
and
her
account
offers
a
front
row
seat
on
the
effects
of
the
crisis.
Ultimately,
her
story
is
a
model
of
hope.
She
hauls
Michigan
towards
unprecedented
private-public
partnerships,
forged
in
the
chaos
of
financial
freefall,
built
on
new
technologies
that
promise
to
revolutionize
not
only
the
century-old
auto
industry
but
Michigan's
entire
manufacturing
base.
They
offer
the
potential
for
a
remarkable
recovery
not
just
for
her
state,
but
for
American
industry
nationwide.
