I also voted for Andrew but without the passion. I am saddened today as we have lost a great leader. There were times we had to “take our medicine” but we did so with the the knowledge that Mario was looking out for us as best he could. Unfortunately, nothing has changed since that speech. The electorate is not listening and that is a shame. I know he was a religious man and I wish him the heaven he believed in.

Sorry he ruined your legacy, Governor Mario. You deserved better from your offspring.

And a great story, Greg. If I may say so, I think you’d make an excellent bodyguard. (I grew up in a largely Italian community, I miss it. Have some in the family though, which is good.)

It’s beyond time for the Us to get a true progressive as POTUS but I fear for you all that opportunity is well and truly no longer possible. Everything he says here is still pertinent and true today except the Democratic party has been taken over by those who would bend over for the GOP and whom have moved the Democrats far to the right of where they should be – at least that’s how it looks from up here
