Description
Within the New York City political structure, Mr. Green, as Public Advocate,
was the second-highest elected official, and thus the man who would have taken over as
mayor had Rudolph Giuliani not been derailed from his plan of running for the U.S.
Senate. A substantive and entertaining discussion with this longtime Firing Line
panelist/examiner/guest. MG: "When you ran [for mayor] in 1965,... you had ideas to
make welfare recipients work; eliminate diesel buses, which were polluting the air;
provide substance-abuse counseling to addicts who wanted it ... I agree with all that.
And so, you know, should I have to run for mayor, I may run on your platform. And
ideally do better than 13 per cent."
