He ventured into politics after he resigned from his position at the National Urban League in 1979 and worked closely with Senator Edward M. Kennedy, who was the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination at the time. His role was to help him win over black votes. Despite working for the law firm, Patton, Boggs, and Blow, he was deeply interested in the affairs of the country, and his position at the firm gave him an opportunity to interact with some influential political classes as a lobbyist and lawyer.
In 1988, he declared his intention to run for the candidacy for chairman of the Democratic National Committee and was discouraged by members of the Democratic National Committee, but he relied on leaders of the opposition to get their members to vote for him and later won the chairmanship position in 1989. He later played a role in the search for Bill Clinton as the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party and his subsequent electoral victory in 1992.
