Ron Fournier, columnist
for the National Journal and a Detroit native, paid a visit to Michigan’s One

approaches with “the passion of an evangelist.”

the Fournier assessment:
“The cynic inside me is
wary of a politician who promises to reform government. I’ve seen Democrats

the mantle of change while they pursued conventional courses. If Snyder is
a faux reformer, he disguises it well behind gobs of data and the passion
of an evangelist.”
