I just read his new book, American Crisis, and he said that when he is no longer governor, he just wants to go fishing and enjoy his daughters. I hope he runs for president someday because I think he'd be a great POTUS. His father, Governor Mario Cuomo, also declined to run for president. He also turned down the Supreme Court seat that ended up going to RBG.
