Clark Durant Calls For Tax Reform, Blasts Washington

There are at least a half-dozen Republicans running for the party's nomination to run against Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D) next year. Among them is Clark Durant, president of the New Common School Foundation in Detroit. Durant ran for Senate in 1990, but lost the nomination. He has been endorsed by several GOP leaders, including former Sen. Spence Abraham (R). Tax reform and education reform are among Durant's top priorities. He told WDET's Pat Batcheller that Republicans and Democrats alike are to blame for massive debt and spending in Washington. Click the audio link above to here the conversation.
