Bob Alexander is running for the U.S. House of Representatives in Michigan’s 8th District. Bob is a progressive Democrat who will fight for our interests in Congress. Bob will fight for good-paying jobs, health care for all, successful schools and less expensive colleges, a clean environment, and a more effective government at all levels.
Kos has talked about better Democrats vs. more Democrats. Bob is a better Democrat. Bob understands the issues that face real people. Over the last 7 years, Bob has helped raise the Michigan Minimum Wage. He is fighting for health care for all of Michigan’s citizens. In fact, he worked on the Ingham County Access to Health Care group that expanded health services for county residents.
Bob is running against incumbent Mike Rogers (Republican). Mike Rogers is an extreme right-wing candidate who usually walks in lockstep with Bush and Cheney. Mike Rogers has a lot of money and name recognition. Bob, on the other hand, is depending on regular people for donations. It is hard for middle class people to make donations right now. I have already donated quite a bit (for me), but all of our bills are going up. The paychecks, on the other hand, are not going up.

Bob is putting together a strong campaign to defeat Mike Rogers in November. However, Bob could really use the extra help from the Progressive Patriots Fund.
Please nominate Bob Alexander to become the next Progressive Patriot. It won’t take much of your time.
