 Charlie Baker is the Republican candidate for Massachusetts governor. He's best known for his work in the health care industry, serving as the CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, but also in the public sector, serving under two Massachusetts governors. But why now does Charlie Baker want to be the next governor of Massachusetts? I want us to be great everywhere, not just here or here. This is one of Charlie Baker's first campaign advertisements, where he outlines his message and how he plans to create more and higher paying jobs. Baker also plans to transform welfare and fix government with respects to making it easier for businesses to get permits and licenses. In 2010, when Baker ran for governor the first time, he was criticized for being simply too much about the bottom line and not enough about the person. Now, in 2014, he wants people to know that he's not just about the numbers, but he's about safe and stronger communities and about the best education possible. I want ongoing dialogue and conversations between people who have figured this out and have proven that they can educate kids with people who haven't figured it out yet. And the fact that we aren't doing this now, boggles the mind. Baker plans to boost education and implement a number of other programs without raising taxes. However, his opponent Martha Coakley thinks that this is hard to believe. I don't believe that Charlie Baker is going to be able to do what he says he's going to be able to do with a plan that immediately takes $600 million off the table by cutting his corporate taxes and also do the kinds of things that he says he's going to do. Still, the latest and final poll before the election has Baker leading by seven points. However, experts are still predicting a very close race.
