AS EXTREMISM THREATENS AMERICAN VALUES, JOHN JAMES RELEASES POWERFUL NEW AD: LOVE OF COUNTRY IS NOT PARTISAN

Combat Veteran Calls for Unity and Defending the American Values We Pass Down to Our Children

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, MI — Republican gubernatorial nominee John James released a powerful new ad featuring his three sons raising the American flag and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, delivering a clear message: LOVE OF COUNTRY IS NOT PARTISAN.

The ad comes as James faces off against a Benson–El-Sayed ticket that is the most extreme in Michigan history.

With the future of our country on the line, James is sounding the alarm about extremists seeking to fundamentally change America while reminding Michiganders of the values that UNITE us and the importance of preserving them for the next generation.

“I went to war to fight extremists. It’s appalling to see one on stage in Michigan running for the U.S. Senate tonight. The call is coming from inside the house.”

— John James

That same commitment to defending America and the values it was founded on is at the center of James’ campaign for governor, and the message behind his powerful new ad. As his three sons raise the American flag and recite the Pledge of Allegiance, James makes clear what this fight is all about: protecting the country he fought for and securing a future for his kids, and for yours.

“When I shipped off to war in Iraq, I knew my country had my back. But today, I get the feeling that some Americans don’t love America anymore. Look, I don’t care what party you’re in. We should all be devoted to our country, to our constitution, and to those who they serve.”

— John James

James, a West Point graduate and Army combat veteran, knows firsthand the sacrifices made to defend America’s freedoms. Now, he’s fighting to ensure the next generation inherits the America he fought to defend, not one dismantled by extremists who seek to destroy everything this country stands for.

John James will defend American values, protect the American Dream, and create pathways to prosperity for his children, and for yours. Michiganders will hear more on James’ vision for Michigan’s future during the second gubernatorial debate on Thursday, October 15, at 8:00 PM, hosted by WDIV in Detroit.
