    The sad part is that in his speech he's talking about America in 1984 but he could have been talking about America today and it would still be true. RIP Mr. Governor

      @@emotionscomeandgo You're illiterate in economics (not a surprise, ignorance is a trademark of Trumptards). 1) Way higher base. 2) The most severe economic crisis since the 1929, and the Republicans did all their worst to further obstacle Obama administration's response. And I'm not even an American... Actually I'm grateful I'm not! That's as for the shining City on the Hill, your country became a joke.

      Opportunity may knock once more, for the same people his father refused to forget.
      A man who cares about his community and his people is a true Patriot, a born leader.

    In my opinion, Mario M. Cuomo’s speech at the DNC in ‘84 was One of the Top Ten Heart Felt speeches of all time.
    Listen to it free on You Tube.

    I also want to add my comments about his sons ... Andrew, leading the nation from the New York governor's chair ... and Chris, reporting from his home, describing what it's like to test positive. I like to think that were Mario Cuomo governor today, he would be doing exactly what his son is doing to day. He was a great American. It's amazing how much his sons sound like him. Close your eyes and drink it all in.
