Mario Cuomos decision to never run for president was a loss for our nation. The son of Italian immigrants, he was a first class act and a decent human being who truly cared about the common people. A brilliantly successful public figure, he nevertheless gave a damn for those many millions of invisible Americans who are without money, influence and power. Even as a now lifeless Democratic politician, Mario Cuomos spirit and memory will continue to tower over todays mediocre politicians of both major parties that we continue to live and suffer with. His remarks at the 1984 Democratic Convention are well worth taking seven minutes of our time to remember what it was that the Democratic Party was intended to stand for: https://youtube/watch?v=kOdIqKsv624
