My Take
Rick Snyder fascinates me because his resume reads like several different careers stacked together: accountant, attorney, venture capitalist, entrepreneur, and finally governor of Michigan. I'm drawn to leaders who bring real numerical literacy into politics, and Snyder clearly tried to run a state with an executive's eye. That same business mindset cuts both ways, of course, and his tenure remains genuinely debated. Still, I find the leap from boardroom to statehouse a compelling experiment, and the Battle Creek native's willingness to make it is the kind of risk I respect even when I question the results.
