Is the Governorship of New York a Cuomo legacy gift? Is Andrew entitled by birth? In the long historical record of children replacing parents, only a few wise leaders did not promote their spawn.
Three thousand year ago, it was recorded of the Prophet Samuel,
"Now it came to pass when Samuel was old that he made his sons judges over Israel. The name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judges in Beersheba. But his sons did not walk in his ways; they turned aside after dishonest gain, took bribes, and perverted justice."
Does Andrew Cuomo pervert justice with his TARP? Did lawyers with actions against the State who filled his campaign treasury cause Andrew Cuomo to turn aside from his duties for the People and pervert justice?
Two thousand years ago, there were the legacy Roman Emperors, Caligulia and Nero. Did Andrew Cuomo burn down our economy as reported in Village Voice, "He turned the Federal Housing Administration mortgage program into a sweetheart lender with sky-high loan ceilings and no money down, and he legalized what a federal judge has branded "kickbacks" to brokers that have fueled the sale of overpriced and unsupportable loans "?

What turned our country's founders against inherited office and appointed nobility judges?
What about the recent legacy office for, "read my lips"?
Or is it the Peter Principle at work? Was Andrew Cuomo already incompetent as HUD Secretary under President Clinton? In 2008, Andrew Cuomo and his staff reported on ExposeCorruptCourts.blogspot.com,
"The Amnesty 'window' will be narrow," says the source. 'Andrew's pretty serious about a real shake up, and he will not give state workers, including judges, more than 60 days to 'come clean.' The plan, dubbed 'CAP' (Cuomo's Amnesty Program) by AG lawyers, is said to specifically include all attorneys admitted to practice in New York, whether or not they are state employed. 'Heads will role once the Amnesty Program ends"

Did Andrew drop the ball and throw the game because of his incompetence and timidity? Or did venality and greed from craving "The Ring," lead to Andrew's shake down to fill up his campaign treasury and keep the TARP, he inherited from Spitzer, covering up the acts of crooked lawyers, judges, politicians from view?
Please, Mario Cuomo, spare us from this part of your legacy. And Andrew, forget the "Ring" and begin your CAP on April 15, 2010.
