Go ahead, Mayor Mike! You deserved to be memorized for everything what you and your people already have done to our city. What a parking mess was in Manhattan before you! How you calmed down illegals! How many lives was saved with tobacco ban! You took care for everything, even for your own memorial.

I will vote for you whenever and wherever you will decide to run. On any ticket. I hope you will agree to run next time.

You are great man, real leader and big politician. Besides your business accomplishments.
