Thomas Suozzi - Future

Future

Much speculation has been made about where Tom Suozzi will go after Nassau County. After already running for Governor against Spitzer in the Democratic Primaries, and throwing his hat into the ring to replace Hillary Clinton as Senator, Tom Suozzi's name has been attached to a presidential run. During the Gubernatorial debate with Eliot Spitzer, Suozzi mentioned that he does in fact have presidential aspirations. In a 2009 Newsday article, Suozzi refused to deny that he wouldn't leave his County Executive position in Nassau County to run for higher office, by saying "I'm not ruling anything out at this time". When asked if he would commit to all four years of his term if any higher office opened up, he told Newsday: "I commit that I will continue to do whatever I can to address the property tax problems that the people of Nassau County face.". There has also been speculation that he would be running for Lieutenant Governor of New York with political ally Governor David Paterson.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    It has no future but itself—
    Its infinite contain
    Its past—enlightened to perceive
    New periods of pain.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The future of America may or may not bring forth a black President, a woman President, a Jewish President, but it most certainly always will have a suburban President. A President whose senses have been defined by the suburbs, where lakes and public baths mutate into back yards and freeways, where walking means driving, where talking means telephoning, where watching means TV, and where living means real, imitation life.
    Arthur Kroker (b. 1945)

    But what we strive to gratify, though we may call it a distant hope, is an immediate desire; the future estate for which men drudge up city alleys exists already in their imagination and love.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
