Reubin Askew's 1983-1984 Campaign for U.S.
Presidency
| Notes : |
Upon retiring as Governor, Askew joined the Miami law firm
of Greenburg, Traurig, Askew, Hoffman, Lipoff, Rosen and Quentel. On October
1, 1979, Askew was sworn in as United States Trade Representative with the
rank of Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, serving as a member
of president Jimmy Carter's Cabinet. With the end of the Carter Administration,
Askew returned to the Miami law firm until in March 1981, he commenced "testing
the waters" as a prelude to seeking the Democratic nomination for President
of the United States. That campaign ended as he finished last in the New
Hampshire primary in February, 1984. |
