00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:21.780
Let us pray. Standing here where water washes up onto sand, where man's ingenuity filled

2
00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:30.920
in water and made it shore, where technology transforms lake water, purifies it, filters

3
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:51.760
it and thus nourishes the people of this city, we praise you for the work of creation and our

4
00:01:16.940 --> 00:01:21.740
Constitution of the city of Illinois and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of

5
00:01:21.740 --> 00:01:25.900
the office of mayor of the city of Chicago and that I will faithfully discharge the duties

6
00:01:25.900 --> 00:01:32.520
of the office of mayor of the city of Chicago according to the best of my ability. Congratulations,

7
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:47.400
Mr. Mayor. When you created Lake Michigan, Lord, you made no small plans. You gave us

8
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:55.880
a veritable ocean. As we stand here on a pier designed by Daniel Burnham, keep his spirit alive

9
00:01:55.880 --> 00:02:04.520
in our mayor and our citizens. Let us make no small plans. Lead us, we pray, to a city that

10
00:02:04.520 --> 00:02:14.800
merits like the lake in front of us, a single adjective, a single descriptive word. Let Chicago

11
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:23.980
indeed be great, great in its love, great in its care. Well done, Mayor, but I counter with

12
00:02:23.980 --> 00:02:34.040
this negotiated majority. Then take this grassroots support. I maintain my majority. Then I file a

13
00:02:34.040 --> 00:02:44.060
suit in court. What the decision is in my favor. You may have prevailed at this juncture, but I

14
00:02:44.060 --> 00:02:49.840
will assiduously pursue your disestablishment. Perhaps, Mayor, but to do so, you must use the

15
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:57.640
dark side of the clout. You must make deals and compromises. Never! Yes, Mayor, to defeat me,

16
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:08.180
you must become me. Look at my face, Sky Talker, for I am your mentor. No! Will Harold choose the

17
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:18.100
dark side of the clout. What about Josie D... Huh? This probably takes a bean bag. No, it's not a bean bag.

18
00:03:18.580 --> 00:03:23.480
Softball? It's not softball. It's hardball. Hardball. I'm looking for the council.

19
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:34.160
Mr. Vadolyak, I've never run from anybody, including you, in my life.

20
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:51.080
Well, we were told if a person doesn't know anything about the Baca Vecchia, we should not give him any votes because...

21
00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:12.900
Uncle Sam, and I'm very proud to be an American citizen on this great day for America. It's over

22
00:04:12.900 --> 00:04:21.060
200 years, you know, since America got her freedom from Great Britain, and here we are today with a

23
00:04:21.780 --> 00:04:27.220
waiting for the parade to start. And there's a lot of celebrities here today. Muhammad Ali is here,

24
00:04:28.200 --> 00:04:34.680
and we have vans and floats, and we have police protection, and everyone here in the city is

25
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:41.580
represented. And it's a great occasion for America, for Chicago, and for our country. We all should be

26
00:04:41.580 --> 00:04:44.500
proud to be American citizens living in a free country.

27
00:06:29.140 --> 00:06:31.940
Today, Harold Washington is right.

28
00:06:37.220 --> 00:06:43.220
We are all together for the Mondale-Ferraro ticket and for the entire Democratic ticket

29
00:06:43.220 --> 00:06:45.840
in Cook County and in the state of Illinois.

30
00:06:58.960 --> 00:07:03.380
I'm the elected party chairman. I have the vote of every black committeeman except one

31
00:07:03.380 --> 00:07:08.680
because they knew me and they trusted me and we were friends. I wasn't a racist then and I'm not

32
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:14.560
today. What happened was that madness has struck too many people, and that's wrong and it hurts.

33
00:07:15.140 --> 00:07:19.800
And I say racial madness was standing on all sides in our city and in our county.

34
00:07:38.820 --> 00:07:42.920
I'm an insider. I was the mayor of Chicago. I think I know all the factions in Chicago,

35
00:07:43.100 --> 00:07:46.260
and that's why I'm running. I don't want to get inside every home.

36
00:07:46.260 --> 00:07:49.800
So you still describe yourself as a machine Democrat?

37
00:07:50.220 --> 00:07:54.920
I never describe myself as a machine Democrat. I always describe myself as Jane Bernadim.

38
00:07:55.080 --> 00:08:00.780
Inside the homes. I'm going to the homes. I'm going to the communities. I'm going

39
00:08:00.780 --> 00:08:05.420
inside this city and talk to people and try to bring them together.

40
00:09:24.780 --> 00:09:27.700
No tribune. No tribune.

41
00:09:29.620 --> 00:09:34.940
Bye the fun time. How you doing? All right. All right. How you guys doing? All right.

42
00:09:46.260 --> 00:09:58.780
How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you?

43
00:09:58.860 --> 00:10:05.760
See you guys. All right. Where's the beer man? Oh, that's right. I was supposed to bring it.

44
00:10:05.880 --> 00:10:12.180
Wasn't it? Yeah. How are you? I'll have it in the park. How you doing? Okay. How you doing?

45
00:10:12.740 --> 00:10:16.060
I'm bad for a Republican. All right. Thank you. Highest compliment.

46
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:23.840
Okay. How you doing? How you doing? How are you?

47
00:10:29.940 --> 00:10:33.120
All right. Okay. Thank you.

48
00:11:04.520 --> 00:11:12.140
How you doing?

49
00:11:12.180 --> 00:11:14.940
Yeah, that's right. How you doing?

50
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:16.520
Nice to see you.

51
00:11:57.620 --> 00:12:04.600
They elected a new governor and he was a very good governor for Illinois.

52
00:12:08.220 --> 00:12:18.160
You have grown up never knowing the enthusiasm, the excitement

53
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:25.880
of a campaign to throw the rascals out and restore good government to the people.

54
00:12:27.820 --> 00:12:32.120
Questions or complaints? Let's get on with this fight for Illinois.

55
00:12:35.420 --> 00:12:43.280
I'm like Alan Dixon who wants to shut down the US economy in order to pay David Rockefeller's

56
00:12:43.280 --> 00:12:52.860
boyfriends the debt. This is the same economic policy that Helmar Schacht composed on Germany

57
00:12:52.860 --> 00:13:00.880
in the 30s to pay the debt to the Swiss banks. And guess what? Nazi Germany paid their debt like

58
00:13:00.880 --> 00:13:08.800
work on time every quarter all through World War II because they had people like

59
00:13:19.920 --> 00:13:24.360
Okay. Communist group called the Progressive Labour Party and the International Committee

60
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:30.300
Against Racism. As you can see, they failed and they'll fail every time they attempt to silence us.

61
00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:38.920
Some local civic organizations have denounced us as a band of troublemakers coming here to disturb the community.

62
00:13:39.340 --> 00:13:44.400
What are we asking? The opportunity to speak to our people. Yet they remain silent.

63
00:15:31.520 --> 00:15:36.240
And it's black people that died in Vietnam and Korea for the right to have that part.

64
00:15:36.560 --> 00:15:42.560
That's why we have. This ain't no play pretty. This ain't no press media. This is serious business.

65
00:15:47.920 --> 00:15:50.960
He said he can't protect us. He said even if we come back next week.

66
00:15:58.920 --> 00:16:01.440
Oh, don't hesitate. Keep going. Let's go.

67
00:16:03.880 --> 00:16:09.980
The name of the father. Sorry. Jesus name. Amen. I want to say to the government is not free.

68
00:16:10.640 --> 00:16:14.780
I want to say to the governor and the mayor and everybody of this city.

69
00:16:14.780 --> 00:16:22.520
Market Park must be free. We cannot talk about South Africa when market park is not free in Chicago, Illinois.

70
00:16:30.500 --> 00:16:36.780
The gay rights ordinance is languishing in the council. And if I, if we didn't have a 29 21 fight.

71
00:16:37.640 --> 00:16:44.220
And if the 29 was committed to the 21 on his passage, it would be law today. I will restore

72
00:16:44.220 --> 00:16:48.700
and renew my deep commitment to the passage of the gay and that's what I already said.

73
00:17:02.540 --> 00:17:07.800
I don't support the rights of people because I'm a politician. I support the rights of people

74
00:17:07.800 --> 00:17:15.120
because it's deep within me a natural part of my own development. I am the outgrowth, not of just father and mother.

75
00:17:15.540 --> 00:17:18.440
I'm the results of forwarding some ideas of struggle.

76
00:17:22.180 --> 00:17:30.120
Certain man's inhumanity to man. A struggling group of people who are trying to not just abide.

77
00:17:31.300 --> 00:17:35.380
Admit if they're lying that they're not just going to survive but will prevail on a

78
00:17:35.380 --> 00:17:40.660
national basis with all those people so it follows as night goes day that when people cry for help

79
00:17:41.380 --> 00:17:50.880
with their Chinese coolies or South African banjoos or serves in Russia or South African

80
00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:55.520
held his bondage of day and let's just push around that I'll be there

81
00:17:55.520 --> 00:17:57.220
and defending them and supporting them.

82
00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:11.360
New mayor. We are going to definitely be active in the 1987 mayoral race there and we're going

83
00:18:11.360 --> 00:18:16.500
to do what we can to get rid of this black faggot mayor that we have and I might add black faggot

84
00:18:16.500 --> 00:18:17.520
is the only communist mayor.

85
00:18:18.840 --> 00:18:23.680
Washington's chief aide William Ware died of AIDS. I think that speaks volumes for the Washington administration

86
00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:28.660
when its closest associate died of AIDS and if it's that close in the city administration

87
00:18:28.660 --> 00:18:33.060
then it's probably even closer than that. So we're definitely going to go after Harold Washington

88
00:18:33.060 --> 00:18:39.580
and I think on this particular issue the homosexuality issue he has given his support to this gay rights issue.

89
00:18:39.820 --> 00:18:43.600
Jane Byrne is also giving her support and we're going to call on the white people of Chicago

90
00:18:43.600 --> 00:18:49.160
even the black people anybody that is definitely opposed to the homosexual movement in this country

91
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:55.460
that's most decent Christian Americans of any color to join us to oppose any candidate for

92
00:18:55.460 --> 00:19:01.580
alderman for congress for US senate or for the mayorship any candidate running for public office

93
00:19:01.580 --> 00:19:07.600
in this city or in this county or in this state to oppose them if they come out in favor of

94
00:19:07.600 --> 00:19:12.960
homosexual rights. As I documented here in my speech the AIDS crisis is just absolutely

95
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:18.180
getting out of control by June of 1991 one medical estimate was every last single American in this country

96
00:19:18.180 --> 00:19:22.080
will have been exposed to the AIDS virus unless something is done to stop it.

97
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:47.400
Let it in!

98
00:19:56.820 --> 00:20:05.120
We're going to take it down with sale to

99
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:13.280
Ed!

100
00:20:18.340 --> 00:20:20.640
There! Hey Ed! Ed!

101
00:20:21.840 --> 00:20:22.100
Eddie!

102
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:24.140
Where's Tucker?

103
00:20:25.900 --> 00:20:27.040
I'm not from this area.

104
00:20:28.180 --> 00:20:29.420
We're going to be the lead car.

105
00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:33.260
We're going to go down with sale to the Ontario ramp.

106
00:20:33.520 --> 00:20:35.220
Take it to Kenny. We're going to beat him off.

107
00:20:43.100 --> 00:20:43.920
Let it in!

108
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:57.500
When I came into office, when I came into office there were three Eddies in that area.

109
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:10.160
And I didn't shoot them. I drove them to suicide.

110
00:21:11.740 --> 00:21:14.160
I keep my word.

111
00:21:20.860 --> 00:21:23.460
In short, I keep my word.

112
00:21:27.360 --> 00:21:29.280
And my word to you is this.

113
00:21:31.520 --> 00:21:33.080
My word to you is this.

114
00:21:35.620 --> 00:21:38.160
No one, but no one

115
00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:51.260
in this city, no matter where they live or how they live, is free from the fairness of our administration.

116
00:21:51.700 --> 00:21:56.820
We'll find you and be fair to you wherever you are or worry about a thing.

117
00:21:57.200 --> 00:21:59.880
But I need your help. I need your help.

118
00:22:00.460 --> 00:22:01.880
I need your help.

119
00:22:03.120 --> 00:22:04.400
I need your help.

120
00:22:05.280 --> 00:22:06.040
Hey, hey!

121
00:22:06.940 --> 00:22:08.820
There we are. Good guy, good guy.

122
00:22:09.100 --> 00:22:09.420
Hey, hey!

123
00:22:11.260 --> 00:22:12.960
All right. Hey, hey!

124
00:22:13.520 --> 00:22:14.000
Whoa!

125
00:22:14.540 --> 00:22:17.700
There we are. Oh, that's a wonderful look about you, sir.

126
00:22:18.140 --> 00:22:19.840
Yes, sir. Very good. Hey, hey!

127
00:22:21.560 --> 00:22:23.260
There we are. Gentlemen, hey, hey, hey!

128
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:26.480
Hey, hey! Hey, hey! There we are.

129
00:22:26.660 --> 00:22:27.940
Five minutes. Hey, hey! There we go.

130
00:22:28.540 --> 00:22:29.940
Gentlemen, there we are. Hey, hey!

131
00:22:31.580 --> 00:22:33.240
There we go. Hey, hey!

132
00:22:34.420 --> 00:22:37.260
There we are. Hey, hey!

133
00:22:37.420 --> 00:22:38.300
Oh, Lord, there we are.

134
00:22:38.500 --> 00:22:40.000
Oh, I'll tell you right now.

135
00:22:40.700 --> 00:22:42.360
Hey, Lord, yes. Look at the hell.

136
00:22:43.800 --> 00:22:44.860
Oh, thank you.

137
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:46.220
There it is. Hey, hey. Good.

138
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:49.280
There we go. Hey, Lord, yes.

139
00:22:49.360 --> 00:22:51.620
Hey, hey! Mr. John B.

140
00:22:51.800 --> 00:22:52.800
Hey, hey!

141
00:22:55.780 --> 00:22:57.020
Oh, there it is.

142
00:22:57.420 --> 00:23:00.260
Oh, there we are.

143
00:23:00.360 --> 00:23:02.240
Oh, there we are.

144
00:23:02.340 --> 00:23:02.620
Oh, there we are.

145
00:23:02.620 --> 00:23:03.220
Oh, there we are.

146
00:23:03.220 --> 00:23:05.460
Hey, hey! There we go. Very good.

147
00:23:05.660 --> 00:23:06.140
Oh, Lord.

148
00:23:06.740 --> 00:23:07.920
Hi. How are you today?

149
00:23:08.300 --> 00:23:09.720
Hi. How are you? Good to see you.

150
00:23:09.800 --> 00:23:11.360
Thanks for coming out. How are you doing, Jay?

151
00:23:11.380 --> 00:23:14.520
Sorry we're late. But everybody and all the other places wanted to know.

152
00:23:14.980 --> 00:23:16.540
How are you doing? How are you doing?

153
00:23:17.100 --> 00:23:17.960
Fine. How are you?

154
00:23:17.980 --> 00:23:19.700
Mer-mer-mer-mer!

155
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:24.280
Bye-bye.

156
00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:24.980
Bye-bye.

157
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:26.880
See you. Here we go.

158
00:23:27.260 --> 00:23:27.420
Bye.

159
00:23:28.780 --> 00:23:29.400
Got you.

160
00:23:31.820 --> 00:23:36.880
He's telling all the people, he wants them to come together to clean up this mess.

161
00:23:37.280 --> 00:23:40.540
Look at this thundering lightning coming out of the clouds.

162
00:23:41.040 --> 00:23:44.040
Peter in a rage is telling them, we're going to clean this up.

163
00:23:45.700 --> 00:23:46.720
So what do you think happens?

164
00:23:47.520 --> 00:23:48.620
They cleaned it up.

165
00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:49.840
They cleaned it up.

166
00:23:59.400 --> 00:23:59.400


167
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:07.820
The

168
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:09.400
The

169
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:09.800
The

170
00:24:19.180 --> 00:24:20.580
The

171
00:24:20.580 --> 00:24:22.700
The

172
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:26.400
The

173
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:26.560
The

174
00:24:26.560 --> 00:24:29.200
The

175
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:29.220
The

176
00:24:55.120 --> 00:24:56.520
The

177
00:24:56.520 --> 00:24:56.520


178
00:24:56.520 --> 00:24:56.540
The

179
00:24:56.540 --> 00:24:56.540


180
00:24:57.360 --> 00:25:01.500
is energy and that's what we're all for right here.

181
00:25:02.060 --> 00:25:05.400
Chicago can be the center for the production of this energy.

182
00:25:17.100 --> 00:25:18.520
Dr. Robert Moon.

183
00:25:19.120 --> 00:25:22.940
Moon! Professor Emeritus from the U of C, like Moon.

184
00:25:23.460 --> 00:25:24.280
You're very Chicago.

185
00:25:25.180 --> 00:25:27.400
Yes, what I'd like to see...

186
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:35.560
You can catch this from some gay waiter who sneezes on your oysters or your salad.

187
00:25:54.240 --> 00:26:02.640
See, Sheena Jones tonight at 6.30 p.m. on TV on Channel 9, How to Stop the AIDS Epidemic.

188
00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:16.860
Sheena Jones says, stop AIDS now or you could be next.

189
00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:19.500
Sheena Jones tonight on TV.

190
00:26:20.600 --> 00:26:28.140
He is a candidate and so far the news media has neglected to see three other candidates on the ballot.

191
00:26:28.840 --> 00:26:33.840
And he stated that he'll challenge Mr. Epton, remember, before he was kicked off?

192
00:26:34.600 --> 00:26:35.540
Well, if Mr. Epton is elected, he'll be the next candidate.

193
00:26:35.540 --> 00:26:39.260
Mr. Epton was kicked off by the Republican Party and Mr. Heider.

194
00:26:39.840 --> 00:26:41.860
He's asking for Epton's backing.

195
00:26:42.320 --> 00:26:46.660
But those are the ones that kicked him off the ballot, not us, not that gentleman they say that.

196
00:26:46.760 --> 00:26:49.540
It was the Republican Party and Mr. Heider that kicked him off the ballot.

197
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:56.120
So Mr. Epton couldn't win and Mr. Heider will drop off the ballot to back the Democratic candidate.

198
00:26:56.440 --> 00:26:57.880
That's the OD scenario.

199
00:26:58.620 --> 00:27:00.860
And I feel that he should not have a free ride.

200
00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:03.860
Okay, can I just take a guess?

201
00:27:04.320 --> 00:27:06.400
Just tell me what you're out here for today.

202
00:27:06.700 --> 00:27:14.540
I'm out here to let the people know that the Republican Party and Mr. Heider kicked Mr. Epton off the ballot.

203
00:27:15.460 --> 00:27:16.720
So Mr. Epton couldn't have run.

204
00:27:17.120 --> 00:27:22.880
And Mr. Epton himself is saying that he might back the candidate for the Republican Party.

205
00:27:23.120 --> 00:27:26.280
Well, if Mr. Epton backs Mr. Heider, he...

206
00:27:31.040 --> 00:27:31.480
Ready?

207
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:39.280
As the current mayor and the previous mayor escalate their views of the past eight years,

208
00:27:39.840 --> 00:27:43.120
the three other candidates seem to be left in the wind.

209
00:27:44.660 --> 00:27:47.200
That is, Mr. Bedrolyak, Mr. Hines, and myself.

210
00:27:47.700 --> 00:27:53.300
What I've done today is to call upon Mr. Bedrolyak and Mr. Hines to join with me in a debate.

211
00:27:54.480 --> 00:28:00.160
So why the other two candidates are talking about the past, or who was the worst mayor over the past eight years,

212
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.560
so the three of us might join together and talk about the future.

213
00:28:04.900 --> 00:28:08.860
I think that would be win-win for Chicago, because it's a chance to hear from the...

214
00:28:08.860 --> 00:28:12.840
They have a clear choice between the three Democrats and the one Republican.

215
00:28:14.360 --> 00:28:15.320
No respect.

216
00:28:16.820 --> 00:28:17.780
Daddy, this is funny.

217
00:28:17.840 --> 00:28:21.680
And so what Peter then says is, this new world is a mess.

218
00:28:21.880 --> 00:28:23.220
Peter cried in distress.

219
00:28:23.740 --> 00:28:25.820
These animals need gates and fences.

220
00:28:30.800 --> 00:28:32.100
You're chewing that?

221
00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:33.080
That wasn't water.

222
00:28:33.820 --> 00:28:35.760
You've been out campaigning, darling.

223
00:28:39.520 --> 00:28:42.960
When the citizens stood in a trembling group, Peter cried,

224
00:28:43.300 --> 00:28:44.840
Here is my proclamation.

225
00:28:48.760 --> 00:28:50.160
Put a leg right here.

226
00:28:50.700 --> 00:28:53.100
I'm going to call you in there, because I've got a lot of space.

227
00:28:56.120 --> 00:28:57.320
Lean forward.

228
00:28:57.320 --> 00:28:58.340
Lean forward.

229
00:29:06.060 --> 00:29:10.460
So there is something in this book, I think, about what this election is all about.

230
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:11.920
It's a dream.

231
00:29:12.620 --> 00:29:13.880
It's a dream of a better city.

232
00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:22.700
Reach out and chug some water, and make sure Christmas is well, as I hope yours is.

233
00:29:22.860 --> 00:29:24.320
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah.

234
00:29:25.300 --> 00:29:26.220
We'll each have a dime.

235
00:29:26.220 --> 00:29:30.620
And how about a Christmas wish for your political opponents in the upcoming election?

236
00:29:30.820 --> 00:29:31.300
Drop dead.
