A book review of The Campaign: Rudy Giuliani, Ruth Messinger, Al Sharpton and the Race to be Mayor of New York City, by Evan J. Mandery. Westview Press, $27.
Staffed by volunteer doctors and medical students, a free clinic treats the Bronx’s uninsured, running on idealism and a determination to show it can be done.
Medicaid managed care promised savings with dignity. Instead, it’s fraught with pitfalls for the poor, who find it’s up to them to hunt down health care.
Rudy crows about how many welfare recipients are working, but he’s not talking about the fact that nearly as many are fighting with the city to get benefits restored.
