JAMES CRAIG: What's missing here in Michigan and in our nation -- a leadership void. People are sick and tired of politics as usual. People do a lot of talking, but they don't do anything. And so what Detroiters have come to learn and Michiganders are learning now is that I lead from the front. 

We saw what happened in Detroit last year. Certainly, we were one of the few major cities that didn't burn last year. We're talking about leadership -- building relationships. 

Small businesses are sick and tired of these unilateral decisions. It's not the pandemic. It's really the decisions that were made. And then you talk about schools. I mean, so there's a lot going on. But people want leadership. It's just that simple.
