Who is the Republican Party putting in the field for 2006 and the Michigan Governor’s office?
Well – actually d**k (d**k) DeVos, President of Amway, has chosen the Republican Party to be his personal vehicle.
d**k is the son of Richard (d**k) DeVos and Helen Van Wesep.
In 1949, Richard (d**k) DeVos and Jay Van Andel formed the Ja-Ri Corporation and began distributing products on a direct sales basis. In 1959, he founded Amway Corporation with a man by the name of Van Andel.
d**k (d**k) DeVos worked for Daddy and inherited his position at Amway by working ‘hard’ as a salesman.
What is d**k (d**k) DeVos selling Michigan and what has the Republican Party bought? The Ada Christian school web site states that Richard (d**k) DeVos, d**k’s father produced "Selling America," a tape recorded talk he gives now and then, and that he has written three books: “BELIEVE!” , “Compassionate Capitalism”, and most recently “Hope From My Heart: Ten Lessons for Life” which he wrote after his heart transplant.
What his son, d**k, who is running for Governor has done, isn’t exactly clear. It appears he went to work for Dad, then worked for Dad and then pretty much took Dad’s place at Amway.
In the year of our Lord 2000 the Grand Rapids Christian Schools built the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Arts and Worship – so you can guess that the Christian Crowd will be pulling the lever for DeVos.
Clearly Michigan needs something more than an salesman.
