A former U S. ambassador to the United Nations,
Richardson also served seven terms in Congress.
(Continued from page 11)
Richardson says. “I try to be a mainstream
American politician enormously proud of my
Hispanic heritage, and 1 don’t hide it. 1 feel
strongly that if you are going to be represent
ing the American people, you have to be part
of the American mainstream."
Listening to constituents
These days, he's focused on representing
the people of New Mexico as he finishes
his first term as governor. Richardson, who
does not have children, puts in long hours
in his spacious Santa Fe office, decorated
with Southwestern and Indian art on loan
from the state museum. He’s cut the state’s
income tax rate and guided New Mexico to
become the first state to provide life insur
ance for members of the National Guard on
active duty.
Twice monthly, he holds an open house
where he spends five minutes with any con
stituent who asks. “He’s informal and it’s
just his style, and that reflects on how he
relates to people,” Barbara says. “He is not
an intimidating person; he makes people
feel comfortable, and he’s pretty direct, too.
If somebody is meeting with him, he’ll say,
’OK, what can I do for you?”'
When he's not working, he loves to ride
horses and attend boxing matches and Uni
versity of New Mexico basketball games. He
ends his days in his study, watching ESPN
and enjoying a Dominican Republic cigar.
“I like simple things," he says. “I’m not
terribly sophisticated, although I’ve been for
tunate to travel a lot. I feel that I can relate to
people, and that my best years are ahead.”
