Background: The Free Press said the Michigan primary steered the presidential debate to the economy. Unfortunately, the vast majority of voters don't have a clue about economics and live in a fantasy world where the President creates jobs and makes the economy run smoothly.

If Michigan voters really cared about the economy, they would have selected Ron Paul. Paul is the only candidate addressing the issue based on economic principles – low taxes, reduced government spending, less federal interference, and sound currency. Every other candidate would fail Econ 101.
