I was born here in Flint,
but I don't know anything about it.

:24:08
I can only tell you this about this town:
:24:11
It's pretty...
:24:13
and the people are nice.
:24:15
I don't know much about the economy,
but I can take you to places in the U. S...

:24:19
much worse off than Flint, Michigan.
I don't think it's such a bad town.

:24:28
With 30,000 jobs now eliminated,
the city decided to turn to the one event...

:24:32
that had always made us so happy:
The big parade...

:24:36
this time honoring the surviving
Flint Sit-Down Strikers.

:24:44
The highlight of the parade
was Miss Michigan, Kaye Lani Rae Rafko.

:24:48
Passing by dozens of boarded-up stores
and hundreds of jobless Flint citizens...

:24:53
she was an inspiring sight to all present.
:24:58
How do you feel
about the economy in Flint?

:25:00
The factories all shutting down?
:25:02
This isn't my interview yet.
This is my time for enjoyment.

:25:10
All kinds of important people showed up
to march in the parade...

:25:14
like the governor of Michigan,
James Blanchard.

:25:17
How do you feel about General Motors
closing up these factories in Flint?

:25:20
It's tragic.
:25:23
Do you think
we need another sit-down strike?

:25:26
That won't do any good.
That's the problem.

:25:28
Is this a great time for a parade?
:25:33
I think so, too. Let's have a fun time!
:25:37
Give your life to Jesus today.
:25:40
Jesus Christ loves you.
Give your life to Jesus.

:25:43
Tell your viewers they need Jesus!
Give your life to Jesus.

:25:47
How could you have a parade
for the founders...

:25:50
without inviting the current president
of the United Auto Workers, Owen Bieber?

:25:54
I don't know that
we need another sit-down strike per se.

:25:57
A sit-down strike today
would not necessarily resemble...
