As a financial commentator, Peter Grandich always has something to say and his opinions and forecasts are sought-after by hundreds of thousands on his daily blog, The Grandich Letter. Yet, in over 25 years of broadcasting his opinion, Grandich has never endorsed a candidate for political office. Until now.
Peter Grandich, founder of Trinity Financial Sports & Entertainment Management Company, announced that he is supporting Michel Faulkner for Congress in NY’s 15th district race.
“I know Michel Faulkner personally, and know he is a godly man who has been blessed with wisdom and compassion and a true desire to help his fellow human beings. Michel’s enthusiasm is real. He will make a great congressman,” Grandich adds.
Faulkner replies, “It thrills me to have people like Peter Grandich back me for office. It is through business leaders like Peter that America will be restored. His endorsement means more to me than any political endorsement because it’s from the heart of a guy who really understands what I am trying to do.”
Faulkner went on to express his belief that without new leadership in Washington D.C., our children and grandchildren will pay the price for our society’s corruption and materialism, and he is making it his personal mission to help restore the faith in our democracy.
“We are allowing the American dream to be stolen from this generation through a culture of greed and idolatry,” he says. “We don’t have a moral compass anymore.”
Faulkner, a Republican, is running for the seat currently held by Charles Rangel.
Peter Grandich, who hails from the Bronx, says of Rangel, “Charles Rangel is everything that’s wrong with Washington. America is facing our greatest crisis ever and we mustn’t allow the people who helped get us into this mess be the ones to decide how to get us out if it.”
About Michel Faulkner:
Michel J. Faulkner, 53, knows what it’s like to have to work hard to achieve one’s goals. Born in Baltimore to a 21-year-old, single, working mom, Michel excelled in high school sports and went on to become an All-American at Virginia Tech while obtaining his bachelor’s degree.

He also served the people of New York as a member of Rudy Guiliani’s Task Force on Police Community Relations, Commissioner of the City Charter Review initiative, Co-Chairman for the New York City Board of Education’s HIV/AIDS Task Force, and Vice President for Community Government Relations at King’s College.
In 2005, he started the Institute for Leadership (IFL), a non-profit organization focused on developing leaders, and in 2006 he founded New Horizon Church of New York in Harlem.
Michel currently serves as: Vice President for Antioch School; Board Member for NYC Department of Youth and Community Assistance; Regional Leader for Christ Covenant Coalition; guest speaker for national and local radio and television broadcasts; and as a consultant for New York State Health Foundation’s Statewide Diabetes Campaign.
