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:

    To pin your hopes upon the future is to consign those hopes to a hypothesis, which is to say, a nothingness. Here and now is what we must contend with.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    What a prodigious growth this English race, especially the American branch of it, is having! How soon will it subdue and occupy all the wild parts of this continent and of the islands adjacent. No prophecy, however seemingly extravagant, as to future achievements in this way [is] likely to equal the reality.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Everything I do is done within sight of the Führer, so that my faults or mistakes are never hidden from him. I do my very utmost to live and act in such a manner that the Führer should remain satisfied with me; I am hard-working; but whether I shall always be able to cope with the tasks entrusted to me in the future as well, is an open question.
    Martin Bormann (1900–1945)
