More quotes by Jennifer Granholm
Many original occupiers believe the political system has become so corrupt that even participating in it, engaging with it, corrupts the movement. I understand what they are saying. But often, change does come more quickly from the inside rather than the outside. My advice: try both. But don't try violence.

With Michigan's economic future on the line, we can't afford to have our 500 local school districts marching in different directions. Instead, we need a high standards, mandatory curriculum to get all our students on the road to higher education and a good paying job.
Jennifer Granholm
We need to be celebrating those who serve us rather than mocking them for the purpose of getting on TV and selling some books.
Jennifer Granholm
We are taking the steps necessary to be ready to send whatever assistance is requested of us, and we are preparing to receive citizens who seek refuge in our state

I urge you to be bold. Life isn't changed from the balcony. Get onto the floor and dance, dance, dance.
Jennifer Granholm
Ceremonies are important. But our gratitude has to be more than visits to the troops, and once-a-year Memorial Day ceremonies. We honor the dead best by treating the living well.
Jennifer Granholm
Today in America we are no more post-racial than we are post-partisan. We have a long way to go.
Jennifer Granholm
I say Democrats should not be afraid to talk about the morality of life, of caring for children who are born. It seems the Republican obsession with being pro-life lasts about nine months. After that, it’s each baby for herself.
Jennifer Granholm
Caring for veterans shouldn’t be a partisan issue. It should an American one.
Jennifer Granholm
In five years, you're going to be blown away by the strength and diversity of Michigan's transformed economy.
Jennifer Granholm
The question is what will Mitt Romney do as president if his policy is simply to be hands off and let the government be made so small it can be drowned in a bathtub. In the 21st century global economy, no state alone has the ability to compete against China.
Jennifer Granholm
I love the protest signs protected by the First Amendment - some of them humorous, some of them passionate, some factual, some entirely incorrect - all of them free ideas.
Jennifer Granholm
Don't mistake niceness for weakness.
Jennifer Granholm
Less than a year after loading the company up with debt, Romney and Bain gave themselves bonuses four times bigger than the $8 million they had put into the deal.
Jennifer Granholm
It's that Romney is taking advantage of the government's free stuff, too, and has been profiting from it handsomely for a long, long time - even as he rails about the free stuff that the government provides other people.
Jennifer Granholm
We aren't leveraging this great economic engine, the strongest economy in the world. And yet we have this totally weak response. We import $500 billion a year more in products than we export.
Jennifer Granholm
We can't equate spending on veterans with spending on defense. Our strength is not just in the size of our defense budget, but in the size of our hearts, in the size of our gratitude for their sacrifice. And that's not just measured in words or gestures.
