2. He has publicly admitted that the Decision to change our economy

to a Service Economy has been a mistake. He has said a Service
Economy cannot sustain our Country and changes must be made.
He has suggested we have policy that we work to move our
Country a mfg base 15% to 20% GDP. He has committed to a plan
for GE. If he has to send jobs over seas, he will make
a concerted effort to bring jobs to this country. He
has or is putting a large number of Jobs in Tennessee
as a start. I want to be a good Corporate Citizen.
