People Care More About Dante de Blasio And His Amazing ‘Fro Than His Dad’s Run For Mayoral Office
“Like so many New Yorkers, my heart belongs to my neighborhood. We deserve a city government that actually believes in our neighborhoods and sees things the way we do,” de Blasio told a crowd that included Sex and the CIty star Cynthia Nixon (who, despite them both being open lesbians, is not supporting City Council Speaker Christine Quinn). “Now, that may have seemed impossible in recent years. We’ve gotten so used to the elitists at City Hall that the notion of government, of and for and by our neighborhoods, may seem in disrepair.”
And blah blah blah blah who cares your son has a gorgeous head of hair. From the Ny Daily News:
”Really big afros and really long hair were cool,” the 51-year-old recalled. ”By the time I got to NYU my hair had surprising volume. It was really quite large and curly not quite at ”˜fro level but on the verge. So he’s certainly following in the family tradition.”
Mr. de Blasio’s son, Dante, a high school student, was the first one to speak at the podium set up in front of their yellowed, wood paneled house. He was also the first to cast the campaign as an antidote to politicians who have catered to the city’s elites.
”I’m here to support my dad, Bill de Blasio,” Dante said. ”Many people throw around the phrase, ”˜the people,’ when these candidates only mean to serve one group. Far too often, this group is the rich and the powerful citizens who have no need of any help. My father serves all people.”
Look at this kid! He is adorable, his hair is adorable, he is articulate and cute and can’t he run for mayor instead? His hair even has it’s own Twitter account! if you live in NYC and you are concerned about who is running for mayor and what their actual political beliefs are, that is all totally understandable. It may just be awhile before you can learn everything de Blasio stands for because until he leaves his kid at home, all we are going to be talking about is his hair.
