At the time they were offered, the two suggestions I’ve made to the Clinton family were little more than wishful thinking. Back in the fall of 1998, I asked Hillary Clinton if she would consider running for the Senate from New York state. I knew it would be a boon for New York, but I was as shocked as anyone when she actually decided to do it.
Now comes former President Clinton’s announcement of his desire to open his office on 125th Street in Harlem. When I mentioned the idea to Mr. Clinton even before he left office, I considered it a great—indeed historic—opportunity for him and for Harlem. But never in my wildest dreams did I expect it to happen.
Once a few details are ironed out, the former President will soon be Harlem’s newest tenant.
