David Paterson Livres

"Paterson is well known for his remarkable vision. In a rising climate of denial and with fiscal crisis looming, Paterson appeared--seemingly from the wilderness--to sound the alarm about the impending crisis after being in service for only a few months.

He made procedural changes that resulted in no state budget being late since his departure from office. He fought for same sex marriage and against disability discrimination. When he appeared on an episode of Saturday Night Live, he even quipped, "You guys spent so much time talking about my blindness that I forgot I was black"" Amazon
