Bill de Blasio, New York City Mayor and recently announced democratic primary contender, takes calls from listeners and discusses this week in NYC.

We've been doing our weekly #AskTheMayor call-in for years. Now, the WNYC @datanews team made a word cloud of those conversations over time. Check it out! Notice any patterns? https://infogram.com/bill-de-blasios-favorite-words-1h7j4d9x5pvd2nr?live-The Brian Lehrer Show (@brianlehrer)

Q: Will the campaign affect how you run the city? A: "This is my 6th year on the job," Mayor says, "We have a great team, a very clear vision... I'm confident I'll be able to get the job done wherever I am."-The Brian Lehrer Show (@brianlehrer)

@NYCMayor says that many of the problems NYers face are federal issues. He cites the Affordable care act, immigration. "Unless there's the federal government helping us, NYC cannot go as far as we are meant to."-The Brian Lehrer Show (@brianlehrer)

@NYCMayor: "There's so many ways the federal government encourages and supports the concentration of wealth and power... You can put that in reverse." #AskTheMayor-The Brian Lehrer Show (@brianlehrer)
