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 believe in something not yet proved and to underwrite it with our lives: it is the only way we can leave the future open. Man, surrounded by facts, permitting himself no surmise, no intuitive flash, no great hypothesis, no risk, is in a locked cell. Ignorance cannot seal the mind and imagination more surely.”
—Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
“As a child is indulged or checked in its early follies, a ground is generally laid for the happiness or misery of the future man.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
“You have too much of a life yet before you, and have shown too much of promise as an officer, for your future to be lightly surrendered.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
