Last among the mayoral candidates to address the crowd at the National Action Networkâs weekly rally, Mr. Liu attempts to rouse the audience by repeating the line, âGood morning, House of Justice!â The audience gives a polite sound-off, but little more, and he quits after the second try. âPeople sometimes call me the Asian Al Sharpton, and Iâm happy with that moniker,â he continues, before going on to declare, with his wife and son in the audience, that he hopes to become the âfirst Black-Asian mayor of New York City.â He proceeds to reflect on his activism, the vast sums he says he has saved the city as comptroller, his willingness to fight relentlessly to abolish the stop-and-frisk policing practice, and his intent to raise the local minimum wage to $11 an hour, before telling the crowd, âIâve fought the good fight.â If elected, he promises to bring justice to the so-called Central Prk Five by petitioning for a settlement that the current administration is not ready to give, and insists that the federal investigation into his campaign was simply an attempt to sideline him. âNo matter how they try to derail me,â he tells the crowd at the House of Justice in Harlem, âIâm proud to be the consistent progressive candidate in this election. I donât flip-flop. I donât evolve.â
