A great mayor, who served only one term, following defeat by Rudy Giuliani.

History will now show him to have a greater legacy than the now despised Giuliani.

A very decent man indeed! Like Trump benefited from Obama economy, Giuliani benefited from Dinkins implementation of community policing
May his soul RIP!

RIP David, a thoroughly good man and one who was true to party loyalty even at the expense of his own feelings.

I disagreed with most of his policies during his tenure, but he did set the stage for some of the success Guliani got credit for.
