of people agree with me the red skins need to do something we need a franchise quarterback, dan schneidere needs to go out and get a good franchise quarterback you know that we can be proud of, you know you can't go back but you can go forward in terms of at least getting pay offs so they are not dispointing the fans so much. i will continue to support the red skins always have always will. >> so mayor berry the underlying tone in the tweets obviously you are frustrated you were emotional as you just said maybe could have used some different words but to be fair these are not things other people have not said and tweeted over the last several years as well over the red skindan snider but the underlying tone you would like them to cock back into washington is that something you would like -- come back into washington is that something you would like to happen. >> i would but dan snide certificate making too much money in hanover. trying to get the training camp and some other things back here but maybe 15 or 20, all of them agree with me and channel 7 last night had a facebook response and

joe jones is p in farmington hills, michigan, where schneider and romney will be speaking. he needs? >> reporter: fred, kwik frankly if rick schneider had not endorsed romney, it would have been an embarrassment because schneider, of course, is one of the leading establishment republicans in the state. he has a lot of heft, but just because he's endorsing romney doesn't necessarily mean that romney is out of the woods, as you said. he's showing second in the polls right now, though it's a very close race within the margin of error. still, rick santorum, who is running very strong in this state, is really making a play for those manufacturing voters, those blue collar voters here in michigan. so i would say that romney still has a fight on his hands at this stage, fred. >> a lot was made of romney's tax returns. now rick santorum has released him. any real comparisons of the reaction? >> reporter: yeah. well, back to the blue collar voter idea, santorum has been reaching out to those folks, the manufacturing voters really making that populist play here in the state of michig

i mean, the idea that simon schneider who has no education whosoever should become governor of pennsylvania. he's running for the office and he's really running. he's got a modern kind of organization and he's running. he's not standing for election. he has no social credentials whatsoever. no education. he's called a clod hopper by his opponents including people who are jeffersonian republicans like mckie. he turns that into a badge of honorary. yes, i'm a clod hoppers in a society of clod hoppers and he rides that slogan to victory. that's 1808. that's early. that's before the jacksonian era. i think we have -- not realized how much society was changing, particularly in the north well before the jacksonian era. >> but there was one of the undertows you point out that's happening at the same time that the clod hoppers and the thompsons are winning, you made the point that as poor white men got the vote, free black men were losing the vote. >> well, that's one of the great ironies of democracy. as you began giving in new york and in pennsylvania, as the jeffersonian republicans, you have to

predominantly very poor benton harbor, michigan was the first city to feel the saving embrace of rick schneider'ssouped up emergency manager law, allows the state to take over a town, overrule all authority and appoint a manager. the state-appointed overseer can do anything, including firing locally leng locally elected position. the law eliminates democracy at the local level. whatever you vote for, whoever you vote for, overruled by the governor's say-so. if your town has problem, the law says the reason for those problems is because you have had a vote. you have had a say in what happens in your town, so your vote must be taken away for your own good. the essential website calculates using the law, he has taken local democracy of half of michigan's african american residents. he can't say that was the intent but that has been the effect in the making of his emergency manager law. a majority of michigan's black population put under emergency overseer rule with no local voting rights. in april, the emergency manager assigned to run benton harbor stripped the elected mayor and city commission of
