Mario Cuomo

Mario Cuomo is, to me, proof that political rhetoric can carry a conscience. Born in Jamaica, Queens, the son of Italian immigrants who once chased a baseball career, he climbed from the law into three terms as governor of New York. Within his party, few could match the moral weight of his oratory, and he was courted for the presidency he never sought. I respect that he kept facing his own state's people rather than reaching for the bigger prize, and that he aimed that famous eloquence at the vulnerable rather than himself. He died on New Year's Day 2015, but that integrity stays with me.
