I made this observation elsewhere, but whatever. Since the death of FDR, the following prominent NY politicians have all been hyped up as possible or even likely Presidents:

Dewey
Rockefeller
Lindsay
RFK
M. Cuomo
Giuliani
Bloomberg
Hillary (TBD)

Feel free to remind me of any I may have missed. All of course failed, with misjudgement, cowardice, laziness and assassination being just a few reasons.

Perhaps it'll take a non-officeholder (Trump!) to break it? Tongue

Eisenhower and Nixon were both New York residents when elected President.

Neither held office in NY though.
