My Take
Gregory Meeks is the kind of durable, deeply rooted politician I find genuinely impressive. Raised in East Harlem and trained as a lawyer, he has held a U.S. House seat from New York since 1998 and rose to chair the Foreign Affairs Committee, putting a kid from a tough neighborhood at the center of American diplomacy. That arc takes real negotiating skill and stubborn endurance. He also runs the Queens County Democratic machine, keeping one foot firmly local and one on the world stage. I tend to trust the politicians who simply keep showing up for decades, and Meeks fits that mold.
