When you have a comment, it's hard not to live up to it. It's hard to turn your head and act like it's not there. Well thats not what im about. Im about fight for what I believe in. Heres a link of the Press conf I was apart of today. The Mayor announced Project 14!!!:su

For my Metro Detroit views of WDIV Ch.4, Ill be on the 6am news talking about my move back to Detroit. Hope eveyone is have a blessed and wonderful day. Take care..:)

That's cool Booker!

Looks like your daughter is a hand full similar to mine... she wants three bedrooms all to herself... priceless.

You're looking good yourself man! See you in June? I'll be up.
Try not to get any cars stuck in the mean time! :D

Time magazine recently had a report on the "rebirth" of parts of Detroit.

In this economy, it was refreshing to see.

Booker for mayor!
