"The causes for Detroit?s current economic situation are legion. Republicans and Democrats, blacks and whites, and public and private sector interests all bear a share of the blame and a share of the responsibility for finding a sustainable solution. And in order to move forward, the residents of Detroit and the suburbs that used to champion Detroit?s downfall need to unite as allies in a common struggle ? to save not just the city of Detroit, but the state of Michigan along with it. That alliance begins with recognizing that Detroit occupies a unique place in America ? one of power, hope and strength, not failure."
